Sutherland Dos Locos Dual Mono Phonostages

Glad you are enjoying the Dos! It is good to know the Umami Red does well with it. The Blue works a treat also. The Benz TR is a recent one I tried, and is pretty incredible with the Dos as well, unlocking so much emotion. All while being very resolving. Love the Dos!

Are you inferring that the Dos Locos is current driven? Because up until now, I think the TZ Vibe is Sutherland’s only such device. Interesting if so.

A search reveals I am out of touch with Sutherland. Yes, the Dos Locos is current driven, and no, the TZ Vibe is not their only other current driven phono stage. 

Nice!  Glad you like it.  I figured you would. 

I really like my TZ Vibe.  If I ever upgrade, I'll look at another Sutherland. 

UPDATE: I received the Dos Locos last Friday. I'm astonished. Truly. I've never heard a soundstage this realistic. My speakers have disappeared and been replaced with a wall of sound with every instrument in its own spot. I'm in love already, and I've only got 6 hours on the units. Hands down one of the top 3 hi-fi purchases I've ever made. I'm at a loss for words to articulate how incredible my analog rig sounds with the Dos Locos. I knew they would improve the sound, but had no clue just how much they would elevate my listening experience. The Dos Locos have shattered my very high expectations. I would highly recommend them to anyone running a low-coil impedance MC cart. 

I haven't heard the Dos Locos, but I suspect it will be excellent.  I went from a KC Vibe to a TZ Vibe and it was a noticeable improvement.  I'm using a Hana ML moving coil cartridge.
