| Which SUT to match Koetsu Rosewood Standard in my system? Thanks for all the recommendations and advice. Now to see who out here on the west coast might have some of these options to audition. | |
| Which SUT to match Koetsu Rosewood Standard in my system? Thanks, @cleeds. So how does that cash out for my situation? Should I then be aiming for something around a 1:10 step up for a 0.3-0.4mv cartridge? | |
| Which SUT to match Koetsu Rosewood Standard in my system? Also, @elliottbnewcombjr thank you very much for this clarification: Your Amp's phono specification: phono input sensitivity 3.0mv. Not Ideal, not preferred: That is the MINIMUM signal strength it needs IN to boost the signal up to line level. T... | |
| Which SUT to match Koetsu Rosewood Standard in my system? @rauliruegas You do make a good point, raising the age-old debate of accurate reproduction vs. subjective pleasure. In my experience, having listened to some of the most accurate systems on earth, reproducing exactly what’s in the grooves doesn’t ... | |
| Which SUT to match Koetsu Rosewood Standard in my system? I do like the Hegel overall, but it’s almost too “clean” and precise, if that makes sense. It does something to the signal that, at least to my ears, takes away some of the warmth and magic of the 6L6s in the Soro. I suppose I could be imagining t... | |
| Which SUT to match Koetsu Rosewood Standard in my system? @lewm on the question you asked: Other important variables and unknowns include linestage gain and amplifier input sensitivity and speaker efficiency. The Audio Note manual says that line level input efficiency is 300mv, and line level input... | |
| Which SUT to match Koetsu Rosewood Standard in my system? Thanks for all of the advice so far. I’ll reach out to Audio Note to see if they’ll provide that info. One other piece of potentially relevant info: I do have the Hegel V10. Would it be useful to play around with gain and capacitance settings on ... | |
| Which SUT to match Koetsu Rosewood Standard in my system? I don’t think that Audio Note publishes that spec. I could be mistaken, but here’s the manual: https://www.audionote.co.uk/_files/ugd/89c24f_e3f648926d024a13b9846ae2269296f9.pdf. See page 9. Is there a way to test for that? Or calculate it from th... |
