| Manley Chinook SE MK2 @pindac I do not have experience with really high end cartridges other than my Dynavector 20x2L however, the Blue is definitely a step or 2 forward. I've also heard some very expensive Koetsu and Lyra carts and the Blue is very similar in sonics. ... | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 @theflattire thank you very much and I'll do some more research on threads. I've read a few and find nothing but high praise for the 9.0. I never took it as you were bashing the Chinook. I've probably read some of the same opinions and feedback. ... | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 @theflattire is the information on a Modwright website? | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 @theflattire good to know thanks. TMR didn't have the T model in stock but once the PH9.0 is broken in, more than likely I'll send it in for the T upgrade. | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 Whart thank you for the detailed response. A fellow audiophile had a Steelhead and didn't care for it whatsoever. He ended up with a BAT but not sure of the model. He also had Audiopax and Duo's. His system sounds phenomenal. His room is treate... | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 @tablejockey i did not spring for the T upgrade but once the unit is broken in and i get used to it, I'm sure I'll send it in for the upgrade. From what I'm reading its very noticeable. In fact, i may call TMR and see if they have one in stock. ... | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 @theflattire after a lot of research and poking around with a couple dealers, I pulled the trigger on a Modwright PH9-X. Highly recommended and seems to punch way above its weight. Some interesting discussions here outside of my original questio... | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 @tablejockey thank you for the information 😁. PL offers great value. | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 @pindac the Chinook came with Tungsram as these were the choice of tubes by Upscale. I believe this is why it was named the SE MK2. Now it comes with EH I think because NOS is getting scarce. | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 What about adding a SUT? Was recommended by a friend it's a substantial improvement. | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 How does the PL differ in presentation? | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 @rooze I definitely don’t need a Steelhead with so many features. How does the sound compare to the Chinook? @tablejockey recently i upgraded my cartridge to a Hana Umami Blue. Its still breaking in but so far i love it. I spoke with Upscale and ... | |
| Table,cartridge,phono...where to put most of my money? Jasonbourne must have the worst ears on this website. His advice/opinions are absolutely horrible sorry. I've heard TechDas and it was nothing short of incredible. | |
| Which Shunyata Power Cord? @audphile1 what are your other cables? I don't find the Shunyata Alpha V2 XC bright whatsoever. Maybe you're getting some bad interactions with other cables in your system. | |
