It is always there is something that poisons everything. It is last night in my Boston apartment, a night before the final big move and I was in the middle if heavy packing. Suddenly as lighting stroke me: I was moving my moved audio equipment fr...

Here are some commentaries regarding my “End of Life" Phonostage.
The name of this phonostage derives from many factors. I am forty, winch it more or less a half live and in the first half I was playing a lot with different audio toys. The last 10 y...

While Dima and I were thinking how to get out of our 7788-7721 80dB gain, a visitor in reply to my inquiry above about a “second-type” phonostage sent me a link that make me very much queries. He suggested looking at DACT CT-100 phono module. It is r...

I am not a big fun of Dvorak 9th under Ancerl. I’m not big fun nether the orchestra’s balance nor the recording quality. Anyhow…
I do not think that that you need to worry PH-77’s accuracy of curves or the comfort to switch them. It looks lik...

[quote user="twogoodears"] Yes Roman... I feel pretty like I entered a sort of "cul de sac", tube-wise... I contacted, few months ago, Western Electric USA and they told me that, at USD 750 ea. they have "plenty" of N.O.S. WE 437A... I've been ab...

Ok, I did find the phonostage. It was sitting in one of the drawers. I do see a rational for me to put in there- to make sure that it would not be shacked during remodeling but, kill me, I do not remember I put it in there. Anyhow, it is back and it ...

It can take me months to pan randomly through a given issue of Stereophile, but Fremer's review of the SS Vitus MO-P201 phonostage caught my attention this month.Mike actually clearly states that this 2-box item is better than the Boulder 2008. Well...

Well, frankly this conversation is about nothing in my view as the way how the subject calculated there is no right and wrong in this debate. What is acceptable, what is reasonable, what is effective what is any another adjective to put in… phono...

It is kind of nice to see that someone have embraced the
idea of “End of Life Phonostage”. A gentlemen from I presume Asia have assembled
the 834PT-AIR and it look like he likes it.http://mellowgroovy.blogspot.com/2015/06/monday-modify-end-of-l...

I like to stress a point that the mammals that write thier doodles for audio publication are not juts ignorant fools but also the cheap, low class, falseificators. No wonder that the audio manufacturing companies do employ the so-called reviewers as ...

There are many ways to deal with EAR-843PT. To my ears it works wonderfully, this in my case it coupled with Expressive Technologies ET2 transformer that probably takes in totally new league. I kind of so addicted to this transformer that I even run ...

Hi Jim,Your comments about the operating point of the input stage and the resulting even order distortions may help explain why, whenever I have listened to the 834, it has sounded like a syrupy euphonic mess. I can get the same effect by singin...

Since my First, “End of Life" Phonostage will be done soon ( my mechanism has been doing the box for 3 month)

I think again what will be the Second Phonostage to care my other arms...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]That is a good question and I asked myself it numerous times. My current standing is the benefits are purely intellectual as I am not able to observe the applied benefits. [/quote] Recently I got eventually the box (th...

Thanks, Keith and Montepilot.
I did have my 7788-7721 phonostage with LCR filter and I always liked it, pay attention - it was 68dB gains with just two stages and with NO step-up transformer. Allnic Phono is 3 stages with step-up transformer...

Roman,
I can't follow most of your arguments. There are many ways to do things and to lay out the architecture of a system. This line/phono combo was designed to work together and to the given requirements. 75-85 db of gain ? Remember thi...

Romy,Hi, new here. Great and very interesting website. I think a lot of people have misread you, they don't expend the time to actually think about some of the things you have said. Anyhow, looking at the above schematic (is this sa...

Ok, what would believe…. but I am in needs to get another phonostage. Te older I become the lazier I become and there is no way I would switch those cables form tonearms again. Also, each time I switch the cables the unused cables drops behind my rac...

Interesting. I remember getting low contrast levels when using the asa 32 film (I think it was pan-x), but huge grey scales. Sometimes I shot in tri-x just to add drama. In the end though, my best prints were from the pan-x using ne...

I decided to make this post in this thread (you are at a second page of the thread) about the “second-type” phonostage. My needs for a Santa’s bring me a nice “second-type” phonostage really got stronger. If you remember my 7788-7721 tow stages,...

Recently, I made a movement toward to a project that I have been contemplating for 5 years – I would like convert my Expressive Technologys SU2 and 2x834PT tandem into a final packaging solution.
For the last 5 years I have learned following:

With my resent battle with Shelter and the off the FM session analog renaissance I am playing a lot of records and there is one observation I would like to make. I feed all my 3 “better” tonearms into the “End of Life" Phonostage and I can’t not to m...

Come on, Thomas, no one talks about the 75-85db of gain at MM level. However, the higher gain does has some things that I find is very useful and I find it is much worth to burn extra 15dB in prams then to have a preamp wide open and run photo at low...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Also do not forget that the phonostage that you built has very lash and very polite sound. [/quote]I would like to stress the politeness and lushness of 834PT-AIR phonocorrector. This characteristic of this phonostage s...

I run both of my Reference and Daily tonearms into my “End of Life Phonostage”. As I told I do not know any way to commutate signals at phono level signal and I just re-plug the phono cables at the phonostage’s input. I have no problem with that ...

[quote user="AlexBerger"]Hello Romy,
What brand of 0A2 do you use in your phonostage?I used RCA, but after 1.5 years of work it began to spark when phonostage is switched on.I tried Siemens, Mazda and now Sylvania 0A2.Siemens has "disco sound"...

Perrew,
I would take RL filtration ageist C filtration any time and under any circumstance. If you look at the circuit of 600R LCR classic Tango filter
