| 3k Phono preamp upgrade options (JC3+, XP-17, etc) @blisshifi Yes, I was concerned about the authenticity of the first link I sent as well, I rather just play it safe. Just ordered the pair you sent. @ericsch Certainly, having knobs feels great. And the mono switch is a great plus as well. Glad... | |
| 3k Phono preamp upgrade options (JC3+, XP-17, etc) I just received the PH 9.0 earlier today. I did some AB testing with my Clearaudio Nano V2, and the differences are incredible (as they should be!). For starters, the detail of the ModWright is in another league compared to the Nano, the nuances ... | |
| 3k Phono preamp upgrade options (JC3+, XP-17, etc) Well everyone, I pulled the trigger on a used ModWright PH9.0 for 2.3k. The dealer has a 14-day return policy if anything does wrong. Thanks everyone for the different perspectives and recommendations! | |

Dynavector and Lyra are more similar than different, so that resolves any doubt I had about system matching. Oddly specific question, but does the PH 9.0/X... | |
| 3k Phono preamp upgrade options (JC3+, XP-17, etc) @hifi59 Great to hear the differences between the 9.0 and 9.0X. Does Modwright have any upgrade policy for upgrading an existing 9.0 to a 9.0X? @blisshifi Thanks for the thread on tube rolling...So far it looks like I'm pretty sold on the 9.0 or ... | |
| 3k Phono preamp upgrade options (JC3+, XP-17, etc) @rsf507 What cartridges were you running with the JC3+ vs Goldnote? My Delos is not a super LOMC, so I'm not incredibly concerned with regard to noise, although it does seem to be a hit or miss problem for different systems. @jayctoy The Sutherla... |
