Audia Flight FL phono vs Avid Pulsare

Accuphase C-27 has purity of tone and excellent dynamics. quiet as a tomb and each input saves the gain/loading etc.

I had an Audia Flight Phono and it played nice, but had very loud peaks. After opening it my HiFi dealer and friend showed me the tinned and screwd cable ends. This cables coming from the power adapter were all loose.

I think most people here knows that tinned cables cannot be fitted with a screw. Audia not...

I haven't heard either of the phono stages you mention, but own both the Whest Ref V Mk 4 and Naim Superline/Supercap, and either of these would fit your requirements.

I have owned (and still own) many other phono stages over the years - including Aurorasound Vida, Tom Evans Groove Anniversary, EAR 834 and 88PB, EAR 324, Einstein Turntable's Choice, Tron Seven and numerous others.
