has anyone had any problems w/ Jasmine phono LP2.0

Nandric, You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink it.

Dear Lew, that's a bit thick. Redglobe mentioned $25 for
two while the manufacturers pay much less . Besides the
technical guys speak about 'capacitors mythology'. I
hope some of them will shine in.
Now this may be called 'Lew's paradox': in this contribution you suggest some correlation between the price and the quality of a component while elwehre you
deny such a correlation ( Eppo, Magic diamond ,etc).

Hello I received my jasmine from China broken. sent it back got a replacement plus the silver ambilical for free to cover my shipping and hassle the new one has worked perfectly with very good results.
Now I am considering changing out the coupling caps.
NOT TO HIGH JACK THE THREAD BUT
This debate kinda sounds like years back when some folks said all amps sound alike its just a matter of how much THD is in the amp.
well we most all now believe different amps sound different why? parts maybe? hello? what is an SE version of the same amp? better parts. thats why it cost more and sounds a little better
just spend some time on the web reading all the cap comparisons, and even on the jasmine threads here on Agon to realize coupling caps make a difference.

I could go on but i think I have made my point.

Rockinrony, 'I could go on but I think I have made my point.' Really? 'Better parts' imply comparison between at least some of them. You should first try and compare, say, 10 different caps and than make your 'point'. Otherwise the 'point' must be made by someone else who actually made some comparison such that you can copy his 'point'
regarding the question which of the compared caps is 'better' than the other. You may have 'a point' with such a strategy but such 'point' is not considered as 'the point'. The 'technical part' in the vocabulary of the amateurs is 'cheap caps' versus 'expensive caps'. 10 x 2 expensive caps = ý. It may than be the case that one is 'better' off with an (much
more) expensive pre with 'better parts' already soldered in by the electronic engineer who designed the pre.
I myself am from the other 'school'. The 'wire school'. Those wire in the Jasmine are not to my liking. They look cheap to me and are very thin.My 'point' is to substitute
those with very expensive 99,999 silver wire. The added 'point' is that all my interconnects, phono-cable included, are also 'pure silver' kind. This way my 'treasure' will become the real treasury.

Regards,

Nandric thanks for making my point you are correct better wire makes a difference its just another link in the chain
