| Upgrading the "original " Rogue Sphinx integrated amp to the new version 2 (v-2)?? Ok, Devil boy, chill. I did not intend to offend you or Clones Inc,. but you have to admit that a company called Clones, or product called Clones 25i seems a big comical. However, I will google or gargle up the Clones review on Six Moons. etc.... | |

| Smoothest and best sounding turntable/cartridge combo up to $1600??

| Upgrading the "original " Rogue Sphinx integrated amp to the new version 2 (v-2)?? Mesch, And as you noted, the need for upgrade would be based on the addition in the headphone and phono stage. That is convenient plus the lower noise floor, but not exactly an improvement in sound. Unless, we want to argue that a lower noise wi... | |
