Romy,
Thanks for your comments. My plan is to seal the horns once I get them all (all 8 of them) to the "ready-for-finish" state (still a lot of work to do). At that point I will try contacting John.

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Hm, I took the anti-RIAA signal converted and run CD player into the phonostage. The RIAA curve was fine and the effect of the HF volume and frequency-depended quantization did not expose itself. So, it looks like the p...
