It is always there is something that poisons everything. It is last night in my Boston apartment, a night before the final big move and I was in the middle if heavy packing. Suddenly as lighting stroke me: I was moving my moved audio equipment fr...

Here are some commentaries regarding my “End of Life" Phonostage.
The name of this phonostage derives from many factors. I am forty, winch it more or less a half live and in the first half I was playing a lot with different audio toys. The last 10 y...

I like to stress a point that the mammals that write thier doodles for audio publication are not juts ignorant fools but also the cheap, low class, falseificators. No wonder that the audio manufacturing companies do employ the so-called reviewers as ...

There are many ways to deal with EAR-843PT. To my ears it works wonderfully, this in my case it coupled with Expressive Technologies ET2 transformer that probably takes in totally new league. I kind of so addicted to this transformer that I even run ...

Romy,Hi, new here. Great and very interesting website. I think a lot of people have misread you, they don't expend the time to actually think about some of the things you have said. Anyhow, looking at the above schematic (is this sa...

Hi Jim,Your comments about the operating point of the input stage and the resulting even order distortions may help explain why, whenever I have listened to the 834, it has sounded like a syrupy euphonic mess. I can get the same effect by singin...

Ok, what would believe…. but I am in needs to get another phonostage. Te older I become the lazier I become and there is no way I would switch those cables form tonearms again. Also, each time I switch the cables the unused cables drops behind my rac...

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:

Interesting. I remember getting low contrast levels when using the asa 32 film (I think it was pan-x), but huge grey scales. Sometimes I shot in tri-x just to add drama. In the end though, my best prints were from the pan-x using ne...

I decided to make this post in this thread (you are at a second page of the thread) about the “second-type” phonostage. My needs for a Santa’s bring me a nice “second-type” phonostage really got stronger. If you remember my 7788-7721 tow stages,...

It'll is truly entertaining. I received today this Chinese phonostage, which turned out has a name, a box, a manual and believe you or not but the phonostage itself! It calls Yaion MS12B. Did I forget to tell that it cost $170?
Actually I am very pl...

Hello Romy
This is my first post. Did you take courses in electronics and mechanical engineering or have you learned yourself outside of a structured environment? I am very interested to become proficient in working on/modifying my own electronics. ...

OK, here are some follow up thoughts after the completion of the project. I am sure I will burn it for a month or so. I think everything will be fine, I do not expect any issuers technical or sonic. The way how the entrance to the corrector done it i...

Paul, I am not sure what VTA and anything else has to do with phonostage. The VTA is not a characteristic of Sound but a property of a given cartridge. Sine I it set and the VTF is not changed I do not change VTA. I do not use VTA to change sound, I ...
|

No, VTA is not in and of itself a characteristic of Sound; but in my own system the stylus' vertical tracking/rake angle is not something that results in the same sound no matter where I put it. In fact, even small chan...

I am not a big fun of Dvorak 9th under Ancerl. I’m not big fun nether the orchestra’s balance nor the recording quality. Anyhow…
I do not think that that you need to worry PH-77’s accuracy of curves or the comfort to switch them. It looks lik...

Recently I was visiting a guy who has Alnic H-1500 LCR Phono stage. I actually had a chance to open it up and to inspect it.

Thanks, Keith and Montepilot.
I did have my 7788-7721 phonostage with LCR filter and I always liked it, pay attention - it was 68dB gains with just two stages and with NO step-up transformer. Allnic Phono is 3 stages with step-up transformer...
