What phono preamp are you using?


Anyone using a Soundsmith cartridge? And if so what phono preamp are you using? (Individuals with other cartridges feel free to chime in!)

Just like the OP, I have a SS MIMC Star and Vincent PHO-701 and know it’s not cutting it anymore. Just ordered the PS Audio Stellar with my Vincent as a trade and got $720 off the price. Hearing great things about the Stellar so really looking forward to hearing it. 
"Did you get the 15-16V unit?" 

I did get the 15-16V unit.  I've kept it at the 15V setting.  1 volt isn't a big jump in potential.  I'm guessing it wouldn't cause an immediate catastrophic failure.  It could be that the unit would be operating on the high side of nominal voltages and that would be okay but I'm just speculating.  I'm a mechanical engineer and only know enough about electrical to get into trouble.  It would be a safer bet to get Jim's input.  I'll ask my friend who did this same setup if he has tried any other voltage settings.  He's been in contact with Jim and very electronics savy.

Thanks for that. I tend to agree, 1V should be within the tolerances of most modern circuitry. I have a lot of family stuff going on right now, so haven’t emailed Jim yet.
