| Phono Amp Spec’s @lewm Thank you for your reply! At least I feel a little better now knowing that the overload margin will be 15dB with my 1mV cartridge going into the 64 dB gain setting of the Accuphase C-47 vs the roughly 10dB overload that I was fearful it m... | |
| Phono Amp Spec’s @elliottbnewcombjr Hello and thank you for your message! When you say an isolation box.... what materials should it made of? Is this something that I would build, or is this something that you purchase? I do love the Hirata Tango transforme... | |
| Phono Amp Spec’s @viridian Thank you again for your reply. Believe me, it is very much appreciated! I understand that the KAB is suggesting the optimal gain for my cartridge is from 43 to 53dB. However, as @tablejockey had correctly posted above... the Benz web... | |
| Phono Amp Spec’s @viridian As I relook at your previous reply, you mention that … Overload is 5.7mV@64dB of gain 20dB above 1mV=10mV So, does that mean I’d only have around 10dB or less of overload margin? if yes, then that would mean I would probably clippi... | |
| Phono Amp Spec’s @viridian Thank you so much for sharing the link 👍 However, I don’t know if I am using it correctly. If I plug in the following data: 1mV@5cm/sec 1.2mV of Sensitivity 64dB of gain 8 V rms Max Output it seems to solve for: 50dB Otimum g... | |
| Phono Amp Spec’s Thank you everyone for your help and recommendations! @itsjustme I appreciate you trying to put some numbers on this! To take this another step further…. Im considering the Accuphase C-47 phono amp. From their manual, it states the following... | |
| Phono Amp Spec’s @viridian Hello and thank you again for your reply! I wish I could know how much overload margin I would have when using my .7mV@3.54cm/sec or 1.mV@5.0cm/sec cartridge into the 64dB MC input. I've reached out to the distributor; they didn't gi... | |
| Phono Amp Spec’s @tablejockey Thank you for reminding me about the the Benz site stating the ZH was ideal for tube stages with 50-60dB of gain. I'm embarrassed to say that I had forgotten about that piece of information. However, with that being said... each ph... | |
| Phono Amp Spec’s @viridian Thank you for your quick reply! I think the 40dB will seem quite anemic with my cartridge, but I’m hoping the 64dB will be just what it needs. My concern is if the 1mV will overdrive the phono amp or not. So with the 5.7mV maximu... | |

| Six DAC Comparison @mihorn I’ve been enjoying my Mojo Mystique X-24AM for several months now. I think it does an incredible job and am very pleased with it’s musical performance. I will be the first to admit that I am very technically challenged, but I will try ... | |
| Six DAC Comparison @mitch2 I'm looking forward to reading about your experiences with the Helene vs your Mojo Mystique. I just got back from spending 4 days at the AXPONA Show near Chicago. I heard a lot of systems over the few days that I was there. There were... |
