I have the Luxman CL38U SE which has the same phonons the C. I sold my Parasound JC3+ phono and went w/the Luxman internal tube phono. It has 4 sut's. two for MC low and two for MC high. Currently I'm using a Dynavector Karat 17DX cart w/my TT. My TT is the Luxman PD-171A. Feels like I have a whole new record collection. By the way it took about 75-100 hours for the phono tubes to burn in to full song.
Phono Stage in LUXMAN - CL-38uC
Does anyone have hands on experience using the phono stage in this preamp? I'm curious as to whether it would be competitive with my stand alone Manley Chinook. If you have used the phono stage in this preamplifier I'd love to hear your impressions.
