| First impression: Herron VTPH-2A phono preamp I`ve been wondering lately if there would be an improvement going to the VTPH-2 from my VTPH-1 MC Plus.On the surface it doesn`t seem to be cost effective for me because I don`t see myself going back to MM cartridges.Why pay for features that I`ll... | |
| First impression: Herron VTPH-2A phono preamp @ professorsvsu You`re a good sport ! Thanks for that, but if I may, I`d like to add this too:I actually had to run a splitter off the back of the tube buffer because it only has one output.So, one goes to my subwoofer amp and the other goes to ... | |
| First impression: Herron VTPH-2A phono preamp @georgehifi What really seemed to help was adding the tube buffer. The volume level on the numeric display was usually maxed out at about 54-56 by..."maxed out" I mean what I felt was loud enough.Now though the display shows 40-42 for the same le... | |
| First impression: Herron VTPH-2A phono preamp @georgehifi So you had enough volume with the passive even though you had a very low 0.24mV MC cartiridge, you didn’t have >100db horn speakers? also what was your amps gain or sensitivity? And the VP1 is the same gain and even higher output i... | |
| First impression: Herron VTPH-2A phono preamp Just to add a liitle bit to the thread.

| Have Passive Preamps Finally Come of Age? I`m using a Tortuga Audio passive preamp and I thinks it sounds pretty darn nice ! I use a 6sn7 tube based buffer with it. | |
| Going Back To A Bi-Amp Setup...Need Advice Ok...here`s where I`m at right now.I need to raise the input impedance of two amps, a subwoofer amp that has 10K input and the other amp that I want to use for the bass section has 12K input. A buffer seems to be needed, so what`s out there that... | |
| Going Back To A Bi-Amp Setup...Need Advice Thanks guys !Whats the current thinking on using a Class D amp to power the bass section of speakers that have the ability to bi-amp ? I`m leaning towards something in the 400 watt @ 8 ohm to do the job. | |
| Going Back To A Bi-Amp Setup...Need Advice Erik...I`m using a Tortuga Audio preamp with two outs so I`ll be using a splitter on one of them to feed the amp for the woofers.I`m not an EE so I`ll need to find out what I need to look for when it comes to impedance matching and all that. | |

| Rega Apheta 2....Asking Price ? Yogi I should clarify; I can go either way on the TT purchase, with or without a cartridge. I`m just looking to save a few dollars by selling the Apheta and applying the proceeds of the sale towards the purchase of the table.The difference is ... | |
