The system as a whole is smooth, detailed, and really gets the musical point across. Extension in both directions could be improved, but the midrange is so glorious that I hardly care. Imaging is decent, but could be more pinpoint. My guess is that more careful positioning could improve my lot here. Soundstaging is good. Next upgrade will be a new cartridge. Suggestions welcome!
Modified 60GB iPod. Amp and volume control are bypassed. Sound is routed from the internal Wolfson DAC through Black Gate caps, and the headphone jack becomes an inredibly clean line out. AMAZING sound.
Nottingham Analog Horizon SE
Ultra quiet, with extremely low powered motor. Very heavy platter as well.
Rega RB-300
Needs no introduction!
Grado Gold
Great midrange...
Unico Unison
Sweet, powerful, accurate hybrid amp. Using Raytheon 12au7 tubes. Great piece.
Silverline Audio SR-15
Smooth and beautiful monitors. Great bass, great imaging, and unbelievable midrange.
Audiopath Silver iMod cable
Real sleeper. Brings out the great detail and sweetness of the iMod.
Nice system, have you considered the Dynavector DV20x low output cartridge. Im using one on the same table as yours and its works very well. I've also added the Technoweight to mine and the difference was huge.
