I just bought the CH Precision P1. I like it very much. Best solid state phono I've heard.
If you can try CH Precision P1 and also with external power supply X1
Sound is very good and very flexible
It has 2 input in current for MC with low impedance,and 1 input in MM/MC where you can select impedance between 20 to 100.000 ohm and gain from 35 to 70 db.
For exemple i use Opus in current input,GFS in voltage MC input with 400 ohm and Coralstone diamond in MM with his Koetsu MC transformer

Dear Mad Floyd
in future i suggest to try in your system also L1,and with X1 you can buy a second board where you can connect to X1 both L1 and P1
My friend had Viva preamp top with external power supply and bought L1 and we compared in a shop L1 with Pass XS,Gryphon Pandora,Esoteric Grandioso,CAT pre top and L1 was better
Hello MadFloyd,
I see you have the Scps1 now. Hope you like it.
What preamp are you using and what was your old phono?
Kind regards,
Tang
Dear Tango,
yes you have right
CH is very contagious and dangerous
For exemple i have L1,P1,C1,X1 with 2 board,A1 mono and M1 mono
I would like to buy a second X1 to use one alone with L1 and one alone with P1
Then i think how will be better P1 and L1 mono with 2 X1 each,so L1 and X1 4 stack and P1 and X1 4 stack
So if you start is dangerous but luckily you can do upgrade slowly,when you can
Dear Tango,
as you know the life is strange
I had tube since 1979 with ARC sp8,then spy and D 250 and D79
Then i had Jadis 30,80,200,500.
The only transistor i had in1988/1991 Mark Levinson ML6B and N 20
Then i had triode tube until one year ago,Audio Tekne,,Be Yamamura,Audio note Japan,Mactone otl,Uesugi,Hal amp design,Fal,Dissanayaky,Shindo Petrus,Shinonia and WE 300B,Kondo,
since 1993 till one year ago.
I listen all new transistor,but when i listen CH in the shop and at my home i prefer them,seems same natural sound and sweet of the tube with bass,high,power and speed of transistor and i like a lot.
For information Marc Gomes of SAT has phono CH P1 and external power X1

Thanks Tango. That makes sense. One question, I understand that the Opus is in the perfect spot in the Black Beauty headshell. However, how will you know that you can mount the armboard back in the exact spot on the Kronos table? I have seen the markings back there and I suppose with the right combination of protractor and markings you might be able to get mighty close to the prior position.
Did Marc Gomez elaborate on why his SAT arm is best synergized with those cartridges? Was it developed using those or is it a weight and compliance thing? I read somewhere that my MSL Signature Gold and AirTight Supreme cartridges were developed in part on the SME V or V-12 arm, so I assume there is synergy there too.
It looks like you have the new Kronos power supply. Is it a big upgrade? Oh, yes, keep your toddler away from cartridge cantilevers. Congratulations on parenthood.
