Thanks donvito. I wonder if 60 dB of gain would be enough for this cart?

Do you know the input sensitivity of your preamp? This should help! http://www.kabusa.com/pregain.htm |
If it helps I'm running an RP10 with an Apheta 2 and they work extremely well together. I honestly still miss my Lyra Delos which my now ex girlfriend busted the cantilever off of so there are other great options out there but I have no real desire to change the Apheta 2 it is a really solid cartridge. The biggest win is that you can set it up in like 5 minutes which is a huge convenience - with the jig I have it takes a lot of time and patience to get it dialed in but the Apheta was a breeze to get on and spinning vinyl. You won't be disappointed at all go for it! |
Audiojedi, Great point, we are enamoured with the ease you can get a Rega P8 playing music with no muss no fuss. Many people here talk about a very popular turntable that uses a heavy plinith and a unipivot tonearm as being a great table. Many people don't understand the supremely elegant concept of a low mass table, the less mass you have the less energy storage you will have, and the light weight stiff plinth will actively dissipate incomming energy. One of the reasons the Rega sound is so fast, clean, and articulate, is this concept and the ulta ridgid bearings of the Rega tonearm which act as direct drain of the incomming grove reflected energy which can be feed into the plinth.
