I think music replayed via the Kondo analogue chain is a thing of subtlety presence and enormous emotional power. regards Karl-Heinz

I have right now both in my system the KSL stepup transformer is much better than the AN. Raul you should try to hear the KONDO-KSL stuff it is really amazing. regard Karl-Heinz

In this chain there was no Klyne as Phono preamp. I think here that the lesson the Kondo chain underlines is the interlocking nature of the whole musical attributes. And the design of the developer Hiroyasu Kondo. Raul you know that also the Lamm LP2 has a buildin Step-up Transformer, and it sounds quite ok. Regard Karl-Heinz
