Hey Brian,
Since my source has been vinyl, This surely limited me.

Steve, do you have the ability to switch between the two phono pre’s ‘on the fly’? That would be interesting.

Frazey Ford "Obadiah"
2010/Nettwerk
search this one out!

So far my impressions are positive on my new to me phono stage. I feel comparing resistors in the MC , will be critical. Then I’ll focus on a passive volume.
There’s a beauty now in the presentation that wasn’t there before. Although the SS could have more bloom😕 Lot’s of options going forward .
There’s much more of a difference in album to album SQ now.
A blessing and a curse
Another interesting fact, my Trio uses 3/6922
The Audia Flight is SS. Bass is incredible.

Frazy Ford "Indian Ocean"
2014/Nettwerk

Hey Joel,
I have the op of that Beth Hart lp and it sounds great from memory.
Her Albert Hall set is great!
|
Beth Hart - Bang Bang Boom Boom White vinyl reissue, limited to 500 copies. With all that hype I figured it would be great SQ. Well, just so-so. But the music is great! Love Beth Hart.
Alan Parsons Project - Eye In The Sky Mobile Fidelity issue, just released. I always like this album very much. But I can't find my copy. So, I bought this reissue from MoFi. WOW, they really did an excellent job on this one. Exceptionally quiet vinyl, killer sonics.
|
The Traffic album is recommended. Really quiet and great sounding!
Same as the box set pressing.
