tooblue,
Congrats! It’s safe to say, for $1000, you have THE BEST phonostage....period.
With the bundle you saved, if a little audio excitement hits again, NOS tubes for the gain section, or a new power cord!
Enjoy it....play the Beethoven’s 5th or Pink Floyd’s "Money" LOUD!
Edit: how’s the noise factor? When does the noticeable tube rush creep in? Volume halfway?
