| review iPhono 2 Also, if you have all these other phono stages/SUT's/ head amps than can handle your MC 2000 and you clearly don't like the iPhono, why again, I ask are you on this site asking if it can handle that cartridge? Everything about your delivery reads... | |
| review iPhono 2 I started this thread to share my experiences with a superlative phono stage that has upstaged units costing near $10k because it is nice to be able to get that type of performance on the cheap. If you want to discuss a handful of issues some may ... | |
| review iPhono 2 They have sold literally thousands of these things, I've owned one since the 1st gen and I've not had a problem. I am not saying a problems can't exist. I am just going to come out and say it. You seem suspect. You come on this thread to talk abou... | |
| review iPhono 2 Chakster:You ask if it can handle a .05mv cart. The website clearly states the iPhono 2 can provide up to 72db which is a factor of 3,981.07. This comes to an output voltage of 199.05mv. So, 2/10's of a volt output. I'd consider that low and opt f... | |
| review iPhono 2 I see. Most likely you are just hearing the low level noise inherent in most systems, could be at the amp level or component level. I seriously doubt a battery would do anything to get rid of what you are describing. | |
| review iPhono 2 James1969:I have never found a battery to be superior or on-par to the grid (unless you are using deep cycle marine batteries on some devices like turntables), you lose dynamics in a lot of cases. In the case of my former MSB Power Dac Gold the ba... | |
| review iPhono 2 The AMR PH77 is better. | |
| review iPhono 2 Chakster:I wanted to add add that if I came off as sounding a bit harsh, I apologize. Of course anyone is free to say what they please about any product and if in fact their is a real problem inside iFi or any other company which is not being addr... | |
| review iPhono 2 I did read the whole thing. My point is any company can have a bad batch. A supplier can ship a bad batch of caps as has happened to some very prominent amplifier manufacturers, it is how they handle the the situation that counts. PS Audio had a ... | |
| review iPhono 2 Chakster: How many is many people? I had had my iPhono 2 buzz a little when it was too close to my PS Audio P5 but that was magnetic coupling in the cable and that was far far less than th coupling I've seen from former SUT's. I grant that the P5 ... | |
| Anyone experience Cala Mighty Sound Denon 103's. I'll keep you posted. | |
| Anyone experience Cala Mighty Sound Denon 103's. I just got around to sending my cartridge off today. I am ordering another LP Zupreme head shell so I can compare the new stock 103R I purchased to listen to while the other is being modified. When the 103.3 returns, I'll compare them both (stoc... | |
| New Technics SL 1200 GAE chakster:thanks for for the link. I knew that thing sounded special before I saw what they were working with :) the ART 1000 which I'm supposed to be auditioning and the Phasemation 1000 (which I now want to audition :).i liked what I heard even o... | |
| New Technics SL 1200 GAE I agree with Atmasphere, I've not found this table to be bright in audiophile parlance. Fact is, the table is not bright. I have used it with multiple phono stages and brightness is not a trait that I perceive. The tilting up of sound I referred ... | |
| New Technics SL 1200 GAE chakster:your table always appealed to me and I thought about experimenting with it. It looks so cool and like you've stated, has some nice solid engineering behind its design. I'd love to hear that piece one day. As it stands, I think I'm going ... |
