Anyone heard the Don Sachs Custom Tube Phono Stage?
@bobsdevices  Would you be willing to mention the strengths and weaknesses of the Don Sachs and the Trumpet MC?I am looking at both (admittedly on MM right now) and wonder what the strengths of each are. 
Why is there no love for Prima Luna?

People hate Chinese amps but love American companies who sell custom made boxes full of Chinese parts. Hypocrisy.Personally I could give a f*ck where its made as long as I like it. Boomer thinking gets us nowhere. 
Constant noisy tubes maybe go solid state?

@soix  good question. I think I’m wanting a not laid back presentation. It makes sense in my head but I’m not sure I can put that into words.@jjss49  the solid state Vision SLR pretty much ticks all the boxes. That may very well be my next.

@leemazei got Mullards and they are, after 60 or so hours now making noise. I’m going to try to return them to upscale and switch back to the RCA’s. Unless this is somehow electricalnoise then this preamp is a tube destroyer, although I went a yea...

@donvito I researched the hell out of it. You should read a thread before commenting in it. Go ahead and search. Let me know what you come up with: TLDR zero.never said anything was wrong with it and in the original post I noted that I realized ab...

@decooney  2 emails and 2 voicemail. It’s fine. Things are running and I’ll be moving on the QS next year anyway.
