Any more updates from you Leif or are you still at sea?
no I´ll be home til aug 8
today I´ll try to get time to listen to new Bob Dylan LP after I´ve picked it up
but I´m more and more pleased with it....got a notch closer to tape
only thing I miss is a SUT with x40 since I only run TVC after LCR RIAA
D will make me one as soon as he get the cores through Germany...
The Head sounds fine with x30 but I could use more volume to make it LOUD
I´ll also listen to my friends Hashimoto M-3 which can be wired for x40 as well

Ok, he is really boating. That statement can read very differently in audio, so I was surprised Leif was at sea about something
THAT'S an audiophile confident in their direction. Humans? Not so much.
How are the DaVa doing? I ordered one today.
It´s a great cart.....lo output but am expecting new SUT with 40x so my TVC based setup can play as loud as needed
will also test tube based PSU next week
will also test tube based PSU next week
My phono has plenty of gain so I should be good there. I went with the cheap SS PSU for now.
Oh nice Leif. Please can you pm me about the tube PS. I should be getting my DaVa this month.
I will use with Audio Tekne TEA-2000 phono, AF5, and probably GMII Ti like Leif.
Tube PSU is 1300 EUR
Great stuff. I look forward to your impressions. I got the germanium solid state power supply. Is the tube one that Leif refers to from DaVa or his own? I know Leif was cooking a LCLC one up.
Oh I’m not sure but the tube one seems to be available now from DaVa since I was given the option at the price above.
the unit I will test, probably next week is designed by a very competent friend here in Norway
also waiting for x40 SUT from Darius next week...just got tracking no
will PM when I know more

I challenge everybody who have the top of the line 10-15K carts to spill some of their pocket-change to buy one of theese
you´ll piss in your pants

You are building my excitement no end, Leif. Question is whether I need a SUT or not. I think the DaVa puts out 0.2mV with the max field coil strength which is similar to my 0.2mV Sparrow so maybe I am okay.
Darius told me it’s .15 to .2 but better at .15
