| Your Nominations: Top Phono Stages under $1,000 Dynavector P75, I have one that I used for 5-6 months. I would let it go for $400. | |
| Thiel Owners IMHO, Avalons do everything the Thiels did and better. Image, Soundstage, Bass, Smooth,Coherent. I drove them with Spectral electronics, but Pass is the match for me. IMHO some tubes are a must with either Thiels or Avalons and vinyl; But both ben... | |
