MC Phonostage

Looking for options for a phonostage upgrade, must be MC or MC/MM, or a similar preamp. Trichord, Graham Slee etc, or others? If anyone has something lingering in a cupboard unused let me know!

thx

 

i have a gram slee elevator - lurking in the loft if youre interested

my lad had his eye on it but seems to have gone off the idea now hes into silver spinners !

I've got a Cyrus Phono X if that rocks your boat .

 

Soupdragon: I may be yes, just sent a PM with some Q's.

Avionics: I'll have a look at some blurb on the net about the Cyrus X, send me a PM with the price if you like.

 

Will do mate

Still for sale if you are interested.

Looks interesting - has good loading options, MM & MC too. I assume the second box is the PSU?

Looking for info on it, worried it might be a tricky resale if I don't get on with it though.

 

Try:

I know the first link is Red Rose. I think it is pretty commonly accepted that they are the same product. Levinson called them 'completely different products' which compete in different price brackets, but didn't actually dsay that circuits and / or parts were different.

You will indeed take a risk on a resale but around 250 quid less than I did.

If you are around London you'd be welcome to try before buying.

Thanks for the links Scott. I notice the input loading and capacitance are different on the Red Rose so maybe they are as Levinson says? You'd need to do a side by side I suppose.

Hi, do you by any chance still have the Cyrus Phono X for sale ?

Thanks.

I have a two box Black Cat MC phono stage with hard wired cryogenic copper interconnects and complete with battery charger. I bought it about 2 yrs ago but owing to changes in my kit it is now obsolete. I don't know if it is of any interest to you but I am looking for sensible offers.

 

I have an Opera Consonance MM/MC valve phono stage if interested
