in The Clubhouse
Anybody need a phonostage? I got this here some time ago As a backup but going to move it along to someone who can use it as I never used it and it’s time for a karma. MM/MC. Extra resistors. Just say “in” and I’ll pick a winner. Over 100 posts conus.

    I’ll definitely be in, I don’t like having to use my Lafayette as a phono stage.
    Thanks!

    These are fine sounding phono preamps.
    I'd be "in" but to say I need another phono preamp would be... well... fake news. :/

    I will offer prospective congratulations to the winner; he/she should be very happy!

    Lol, I certainly wouldn’t be opposed to that. :)
    But alas, tubes are another rabbit hole I can’t afford to get into, as I’ve said many a time. ;)

    I had MORE of an endorsement but Ken edited out the fact that Mr H "borrowed" this preamp for an extended period of time and enjoyed it.

    and then lost, like a year's use of it when it was being held hostage in an undisclosed location in northern New England...

    ;)

    Speaking of which -- here's a serving suggestion for the lucky recipient of the current, awesome Karma! :)

    EDIT: oops, if we're too far off-topic, Ken -- do feel free to snip.

    The photo's nice enough to keep, though, isn't it?
