    Best phono stage?

    Congratulations on the C-47 - I love my C37 after having tried and owned many different phono stages. After starting with the E-600 and listening to the C37 I ended up moving on from much more expensive separates tube phono stage and pre combo (Shindo Giscours/A23 Hommage+Cortese+Haut Brion) to...

    Japanese Audio: How do the best compare?

    Excellent short summaries! I'll comment on some of the ones I owned or heard more extensively at friends/dealers: Shindo - Lively, detailed, good textures. I really loved the original Ken Shindo designs - Monbrison, Haut Brion, Cortese. I would consider an original Giscours too. Accuphase -...

    Audience aR6-TSS vs aR6T-SSOX

    ZYX Diamond vs Jan Allaerts MC 2 Formula One

    Which phono stage did you use for the Allaerts? The MC in the Shindo or a separate set-up of phono? I am very familiar with both the Monbrison and Allaerts MC1B... I would not expect the Allaerts MC2 with its high internal impedance to work well with anything but a solid state phonosage with...

    Phono Stages with 3-4 inputs

    I second the Accuphase C37 - real depth, wonderful tonality, textures and details, dynamic. Loading and gain is easily adjustable for each input. Another choice for multiple inputs is the Cyrus phono ...

    Best integrated for under $20K

    I second the suggestion for Accuphase integrated amps - in addition to the E470 I would add the E600 Class A amp to the list. While it does not have the max. output power of the E470 it is extremely stable into 2 and even 1 Ohm loads with power still doubling to 120W into 2 Ohm. I moved to the...
