| Budget LOMC preamp recommendations needed Greg7, I have paired my Jasmine with a Denon DL-S1. It reproduces wonderfully, colorless and transparent music. I find no desire to try anything else.This is not my discovery. The combination was recommended by another long-time audiophile (a Dane... | |

The LP is placed on the platter and set in motion and the stylus is engaged with the disk.When the stylus ... | |
