| Magico A5 or Sonus faber SERAFINO TRADITION or Harbeth 40.3 XD I do have Mcintosh MEN220 and it did a magic in my room. I have McIntosh C1100, McIntosh 452, SME 20/3 and Manley Steelhead phono - was initially reluctant to insert AD-DA into my pure analog setup - boy, was I wrong! Speakers are Sonus Faber Gua... | |

| Is D for Dry? Class D... It depends. I've experienced quite a few tube and solid state A/AB class amps which were boring or plain unlustenable. I use class D NAD C688 integrated for my patio B&W AM-1 speakers and the sound is decent enough for me to live with this amp... | |
| Brand new Technics SL-1210GR platter wobble ... disappointed! That's not normal. I'd requested an exchange/return. Rather than live with defective turntable (and being pissed off every time while putting record on the platter) I'd wait for 2 months. | |

Mine is 470 Ohm type with low output of 0.3 mVStandard MM load of 47K does not sound right with this cart.Y-jumper allows you to add whatever resistor value needed in parallel to ... | |
| SoundSmith Sassuro Paula and Manley Steelhead Finally got Soundsmith Sussurro Paua with 470 Ohm load option in my hands!!!1. Installed it yesterday on my SSM/RIM VPI 10.5i tonarm using Soundsmith EZ-Mount screws and dialed it in with Mint protractor - the point of the needle is just a bit beh... | |
| SoundSmith Sassuro Paula and Manley Steelhead Thank you for your response and suggestions, dear Peter!And..I think that for VPI the load resistors could be installed right inside of the Phono Interface Box | |
| SoundSmith Sassuro Paula and Manley Steelhead Dear Retipper, if there will be any sonic degradation if using 470 Ohns Paua with 400 ohm MC Manley Steelhead MC input? | |
