    Nice sounding phono stage
  

*by -***- on Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2016*

I have had this phono stage for about a month now, purchased used (they are ~$550 out there).  It has a nice tonal balance and a powerful bass, something that a couple of other phono stages in this price range seemed to be lacking.  What I really like the most is the flexibility--there are numerous loading and gain options achievable through the DIP switches on the back.  Build quality is nice, for a little black box--it uses high-quality RCA jacks on the inputs, and the component itself feels weighty and not at all cheap.The one drawback for me is that it is somewhat noisy.  Hum is nonexistent, but that "rushing" white noise is evident when you use a low-output moving coil (running a Dynavector XX2 Mk. II), as you need the gain set to its highest level (60dB, and I have cartridge load set to either 80 or 100 ohms).  I am using this phono stage with a newer Conrad-Johnson preamp, which itself is nearly dead silent at even its highest volume levels.  The C-J's volume setting ranges from 0 - 99, and when you are set at 60, you can easily hear the white noise.  On really quiet records, it is a little more audible than the background noise on the vinyl.  Considering it comes with a wall wart for power, an improved power source may help things.  For higher output cartridges, this phono stage is likely very quiet when used with them.Using a step-up transformer is not a good solution--that adds another set of interconnects and componentry to the signal path.  The idea of a moving-coil-capable phono stage is to eliminate all the extra components.I may borrow another phono stage to compare this to, but I feel that given the amount of gain I need, the noise may be unavoidable in any phono stage that I try.  So I could still strongly recommend this phono stage given its otherwise fine performance and bang-for-the-buck.
