thoughts on adding phonostage
Thinking of adding a phonostage/upgrade cartridge on current set up;
EAT b sharp turntable
rogue audio cronus magnum iii
goldenear T66 floor speakers
KimberKable ascent 8tc speaker wire and PBJ interconnect.
currently I have a ortofon bronze 2M cartridge. will upgrade to EAT jo no.5 , Hana ML or ortofon MC quintent bronze depending on best price etc. excited to actually hear the difference as i think the set up sounds pretty good right now.
question is, thoughts on phonostage? the cronus magnum iii has a built in MM/MC phonostage, woudl it be overkill? and do i pair the phono to the rogue audio, or to the EAT turntable, or can I go with another brand?
Do what @buellrider97 suggested. I have an RP-1 with a Rega P6 and Ania Pro Cart. I called up Rogue and got the dip settings they suggested to match the Ania (there was a chart but I wanted to make sure). Upgraded the RP-1 tubes to Matched Mullards from Andy's tube services. Later a tried a MOON 110LP from my LD. After as critical a listening session as my old ass ears could pull off , The MOON sounded no better than the RP-1. So back to the LD it went. |
