Uberwaltz,
Just wanted to give you a quick update: The Lyngdorf is gone, and now I'm using a MicroMega M100. No more A/D conversion for my analog device, which is of course the PH-10.
I had a minor WOW moment right off the bat playing vinyl. I always had concerns playing records through the 2170, even though this last time with the 2170 was very, very good. But...now without any digital in the path, and switching from Class D to A/B in the amp, I've hit the sweet spot with the PH-10. Everything sounds so alive and exciting.
I've tried to find the input specs for the M100's line/balanced inputs to see if they're a better match with the PH-10, but nothing yet..
I almost thought about selling the PH-10 too, because the M100 has it's own phono stage, but a quick A/B test, made the PH-10 the clear winner. This preamp still amazes me.
