t took me 5 freaking years to fin-anally install a second set of SUT's in my EAR834. 4 out of those 5 years was waiting for Tribiute Pieter to make me custom silver SUT's on nanocrystaline core. I even found him the wire. I went boutique and the new input path is silver WBT, Pieter AG SUT's 1:12, silver wireing from Neotech (the blue cables) and a TKD switch. After bitching at German mafia I finally went their way too as it's the only switch with a solid silver contacts. The switch was Paul S treated with all the contacts polished and protected with a dielectric grease (Paul I hate you for teaching me this procedure - it's such a pain). Now the path is being burned in. I found an ingenious way to do it: inject the signal (Hagtech's frybaby) to the input tube's socket and close the circuit with some 6.8R resistors at the headshell. This way all the path is current loaded including the tonearm wiring and the tonearm cable. 10 more days of burning (due to travels) and I try it! It will serve for a FR64S+Fr7f combo, connected by AQ Leopard.
And who wins the prize for the least optimal layout? Meee!
Cheers,
Jarek
