Firebottle OTP-MK2

Maybe Alan can offer a pimped up bling option? Gold bolts and pink glitter casing for the laydees?

I am sure that can be arranged!!!

For the first I would have 'Super Linear Phono Stage', not phono stage, unless you used 'super linear phono stage' - though I prefer the first.

For the second it should definitely be Preamp (perhaps Pre-Amp), not preamp. However, I also question why one is a Phono Stage and the other a Phono Preamp, they should both be called the same surely? Also, if you are going for black bolts I wouldn't use the shiny button but would use a black one instead (I know you can get that type in black as I used two for my turntable power supply).

Is the OTP a preamp or a phono stage?

It's a phono stage. Sometimes known as a phono preamp.

This is all quite amusing chaps.

I specifically stayed with the original wording that I came up with for both units, it provides a small emphasis on things and also provides a little differentiation.

It would have probably been better to not photograph and post the two units together.

The Vivant had the slight emphasis on the Super Linear, whereas the OTP is an OTP Phono, you never know I might use the OTP monica on other things

@ Jimbo, the OTP is a phono preamp/stage, I use the words on an interchangeable basis.

@ Mark, the black button is only momentary whereas I need latching.

The black version isn't the same electrically. I can remember why.

The ones I used were momentary but you can get them in latching too - I've just had a look on eBay and they are definitely there.

Yes, probably a good point about posting both together.

Doh!
