I think that the Ortofon Verto is an excellent, underrated SUT at it's price point. Like with any SUT, you need to make sure that it is a good match with your cartridge and MM phono stage. I have a friend who used a Verto with a Dyna XX-2 and it sounds very good.
Ortofon verto step-up any good?
Hi everyone I just purchased a new RP8 turntable, I am looking at getting a dynavector 20x2 cartridge for it. And my turntable dealer has a customer looking to upgrade his lightly used step-up transformer. And needs to sell it first, and I need one for my phono preamp to run the low output MC. It’s a ortofon verto step up. I Would get it for around $500, should a guy jump on it or save up for a music first audio audio mc 632 step up for $800? Also is the ortofon Verto a better step up device?
