    Some more black box pron...



    Just been listening to the P75 again, using the Joan Armatrading *Me Myself I album as the music. Hell's fookin' bells!! The 75 (which is still a cracking little phonostage, no excuses needed) sounds pinched, narrow, bright and synthetic compared to the Phono2.

    *I'd not listened to this for years - forgotten how bloody good it was. Analogue-recorded drums & bass at its best - dynamics that make your hair curl (if I had any).
    Richard.

    By the way, if I forge some proof, do I still qualify for a free amplifier?

    No! at the minimum you would probably get community service or probation

    Thanks Marco

    Meanwhile back at the ranch...

    My rig sounds blummin' fab today. Great what a weekend's worth of giving the sytem a proper beasting can do to loosen it all up.

    Now all I need is a quartet of A80 mono's...
