| review iPhono 2 Mantis-toboggan:I’m just seeing this as I grew tired of some of the foolishness. I appreciate your words, thank you. My whole goal was just to share my experience with a superior and affordable phono stage.I appreciated the intelligence of how you... | |
| review iPhono 2 Racedoc:Hi, you are welcome. I have no experience with the Tidal gear, but it is beautiful and I would hope that it betters many phono stages based on the pricing differential alone. Obviously I have no opinion as I have not had the pleasure of he... | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Enginedr1960:Well written, I have found that on some systems 60dB seems like it should work but that in fact 66dB is required. Why? Not sure, perhaps the stated gain of the phono is off, perhaps the cartridge is not as strong as the spec sheet sta... | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Invictus005:Ok, you win. BURN (still laughing) thanks for the comedy before the long drive home. | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Invictus005:I think you do care or you wouldn't be trolling a thread I started. You would go and stand on your own, with your own thread. I promise if you start your own thread you will not see any comments from me :) | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Invictus005:So Ypsilon, Thrax Vitus, FM Acoustics???You hear that Michael Fremer, STOP and DESIST immediately from reviewing new phonostages that are not from the approved list of Invictus005. What Mike? Some of them sound awesome you say? Doesn’t... | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Invictus005:Forgive my last queries, I really didn’t intend on you presenting me with an answer. I simply don’t care. | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Invictus005:Then don't do it. I think most people on this forum undertstand "YMMV". If it doesn't work in their system, I'm sure they will try another setting. BTW, I didn't recommend anyone copy what I do in my system, I was asked how I run my Ph... | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Invictus005:Do you have a SPL Phonos? Do you have it connected to a 103r or 103.3? Have you you ever heard this combination with an amplifier of X gain?What gain universally causes cartridges capable of an output of ~0.25mv to sound great? Hint: t... | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Pani:Case in point, most people just go by what they read and set the gain on the phonostage far higher than it needs to be. | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Invictus005:What is the input voltage for my amplifiers input stage that will produce full output? Surely you know this as you purport to know how my system sounds. A system that btw you’ve never heard. | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Invictus005:oh, yeah? Smh where do you people come from? | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Pani:Yes I do play both 103's at 57dB. | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Pani: Not a problem. I play my .25mv rated 103's and they sound absolutely wonderful with black backgrounds at a very nice volume level, so a .5mv cart will be super quiet and smooth sailing. At 57dB of gain you are outputting .354 volts which is ... | |
| Ana Mighty Sound 103.3 Pani:Not at all. |
