I run a 1982 Sota Sapphire I bought new and recently had refurbished to compliment a Graham Phantom Supreme and DV XX2 Mk2. I love the combo more and more every time I listen to it. Previous arm was a Magnepan Unitrac I with a DV MR23RS. Before that I had a Rega Planar 2 with the Rega arm and a DV MR23. The VTA on-the-fly of the Unitrac and the Phantom on the Sota was/is the way to go, IMO. Good luck & happy listening!
upgrading the analog setup
hi everybody
i’m listening to last joe walsh lp (love the man) and start thinking to upgrade my entire analogue chain.
I’m now a owner of a rega P5, denon 103, lehmann black cube se prephono.
For the cart I’m sure I’ll go with a dynavector 20X2L (loved very well a former 10X5).
That’s the only certainty.
For the TT on my list now there are:
Rega rp8 (2100 euro)
Well Tempered Amadeus (2800 euro + cable rca)
Linn LP12 (which incarnation?)
Technics sl 1200 + pbthals’s arm
a VPI
sota (my dealer sells them)
and for the pre phono a have no f idea… I heard good things about AVID and the dynavector p75 mkIII but to compensate the solid state integrated I was thinking a tube one..
Any input would be greatly appreciated
thanks
rockness
ps unfortunately I cannot audition any components but the sota.
