Ray Samuels F-117 Nighthawk MC/MM Phono

Thanks Agiaccio.

Davidmag, I use an Anthem AVM50v. Not sure what the gain is, but I found that higher gain on the Nighthawk resulted in expected, quite audible distortion.

One more question on a slightly controversial topic. What TT/tonearm-to-Nighthawk interconnects are you all using? I currently run BlueJeans LC-1's (which sound as neutral as DHLabs Phantom or AQ Blue Racer II which I've tried) and I'm trying to determine if that's another upgrade I need now...

The rest of my system is an all Linn stereo music system which includes the Linn Akurate Kontrol pre-amp.

For ICs, I use the Linn black unbalanced interconnects.

FYI the input capacitance of the Nighthawk is 220pF
