[QUOTE="croak, post: 49538, member: 361"] I would second the phono stage. After various integrateds and a pre amp with a supposedly premium phono stage a friend gave me a single ECC83 valve line stage. I then needed a separate phono stage and built something to a TI application note with a robust powersupply. Guts and dynamics like not before (Amps had included QED, Naim, NAD.) Anyways, since then I have become a bit of a convert/sceptic to phonos, in a vinyl system they really account for a huge part of the sonics and are too often skimped on. Several affordable commercial units are just crap and poor phono stages probably a part reason for the fall from grace of the format. [/QUOTE]
