| Best cost no object tube phono @rsf507 If I remember correctly, Scott had said that the price for the Wavestream Kinetics Deluxe Phono Amp has remained the same since 2013 at roughly $9000. This is just another testament to the great character of Scott Franklin... to keep the p... | |
| Best cost no object tube phono Anyway you slice it... (whether it be pure tubed, SUT/tube, FET/tube, and yes even with some solid state devices, etc... ) I truly believe that we should try and remember that we, as vinyl lovers, should all feel thankful and blessed that we have ... | |

Was it the fridge, the wiring from an older house, bad capacitor, etc. Are you still using the cheater plug as the fix?2. I ... | |

| Need a sut for Hana ml Using a step up transformer with a turns ratio of 1:5 should give you a gain of roughly 13.98dB. The reflected impedance will be dependent upon the input impedance of the phono stage you are using.Many phono stages will commonly use an input impe... | |
