James,
You asked about my phono stage.....
It’s an interesting piece. I am surprised at how on the warm side of neutral it is. It sounds great but I need to satisfy my curiosity with cartridge loading before I make any profound statements about it’s SQ. Right now, compared to my Trio, which is tubed, the Audia Flight has greater extension in the bass. Midrange is full. I wish there was a little, just a little more sparkle ( as Brian says) on top. My thinking is a different loading resistor will be in order. I think the SS could have more bloom.
The music sure does have a beauty to it now. Fremer gave it a glowing review 10 years ago, FWIW.
BTW, loved that Osibisa lp jacket!
