Re: MC Phono Stage Bake-off

Have I been moderated again! Sweet Christmas! That joke was funny.

C'mon guys.

I respect the verdict and to be fair, I can see where they are coming from. The Phono 2 was very good. As I said, if I was looking that's what I'd buy.

There were a couple of other stages, but as they are not commercially available to buy i haven't included them.
Enough said. :lol:
What do you mean by that? Should a write up be done about a DIY phonostage that has no name, no price and no details? I'm happy to do so! It was excellent.

Re: MC Phono Stage Bake-off

I disagree with Bigman80. The worst phono amplification on the day was provided by my Akai AA-8080 receiver. The rest of the phono stages were a step above this. The Akai sounded fuzzy compared to them. Just as well it was the cheapest there and included a pre-amp, power amp and tuner. For me it wa...

Did you play the same track(s) on each stage or mix it up?
