I am somewhat familiar with the dact: I used it in non controlled manner but familiar environment; it was assembled by someone else who also provided the necessary power supply; it was in two chassis about 15x15x~30 cm each (one for ps), so the equal...

While Dima and I were thinking how to get out of our 7788-7721 80dB gain, a visitor in reply to my inquiry above about a “second-type” phonostage sent me a link that make me very much queries. He suggested looking at DACT CT-100 phono module. It is r...

Thanks, Gregm.
My primary concern with all those IC-based phonostages is that they are thin like hell. The audio freaks like it, I do not. I never heard the DACT CT-100 and can not speculate. I have seen this one:

This appears to put the internal values of its gain stages into play, which in turn appears to cut the signal path parts count, all right. Since we are not given the (presumed "dedicated") cartridge H, did anyone run reverse numbers to see if this p...

I am with you on this one. I am also very suspicious of gigantic, 4-chassis phono stages if only because I just wonder why the need for all those damn noisy parts, along with concommitment connections?So it really pisses me off to admit that th...

How do I hate DIY? Let me count the ways...Is there some reason you cannot make through-holes to facilitate soldering leads to your copper sheet? Use a hot iron (800 F) and plenty of aggressive flux to pre-tin the holes... Stand parts on short leads...
