Item: Solid State Phonostage (eg Audia Flight, Aurorasound
Price Range: up to $6k
Item Condition: New or Used
Extra Info: Looking for a solid state phono stage to partner with the Jadis DA50S I just acquired. I find that with the Manley Chinook, there is too much midrange and loss of high frequency details. The Chinook sounded fantastic with a solid state amp. The sound is more balanced when I use the PS Audio Phono.
I am looking at different options including tube rolling the Jadis (KT88s - considering the EAT which I understand gives a more neutral tone)), the Chinook (6922s), interconnects (maybe silver?) and speakers. This just shows how much one component can affect another.
Prefers something with dual input (MM/MC) and a Mono switch.
If possible, would like to trial the phono stage in my system.
