SPU People: I love my Royal N. Which SPU will I like even better?

Except what give me listening pleasure and what gives you listening pleasure are quite possibly two very different things. There aren’t a ton of real ice cream flavors but definitely more than one.

Thanks for the info. I think I'm looking for more of a taste of the old SPU sound. I have an SL15 so I know what that it. It sounds like I should be looking for one of the Anniversary models!

@edgewear Thanks for the description of the Anniversary Models. I just popped for an A95. Hope it's not TOO modern.  Not really looking for something even more modern than my Royal N.... I don't think. Who knows really?  One person's modern may very well be another's something else.

Very nicely said @edgewear!

Nope it didn't. I'm sort of going back in time now and I'm enamored with the non SPU SL15 and the SPU-TE with the built in transformer. It's tough, once you hear the tone these cartridges produce, to enjoy to the more sterile A95. The Royal N is still closer to those vintage carts but still has the more modern dynamics. I'm in a "less is more" phase I think.

Interesting. Which SUT do you use with the Royal N?

That Stageline with a nice SUT would probably sound really good with the Royal N.

Have you seen this blog about SPUs? He uses a Royal N with a Schröder arm. It's a two part article.
