Whats on your turntable tonight?

Brian - high praise indeed for the Trumpet - Muveling and i had more than a few conversations when i decided to put the Herron in the audition pile. He unlike another third person voice Herron BOOSTER has credibility because he has actually owned and listened to many phono preamps and many carts. fun and that’s the point.

I opened the Trumpet this morning, and strategically placed some DynaMat I have. Tight confines after the bottom/side plate is installed, so had to be careful. That stuff does not come back off easily. Anyway, tapping on the chassis, no more ‘ping’, but instead a ‘thud’. Will it help? Well, it surely cannot hurt. Not really any good areas to install actual mass with the tolerances between board(s), various components, and the chassis itself without some more major retooling. Jim’s work is neat and tidy inside. Very nicely done.

Yea Jim, as we chatted about this before the purchase, Muveling‘s comments were what focused and narrowed my decision. The fact that he has had several high end phono stages, and I haven’t, meant a lot in making my decision.

And as a constant ‘bargain hunter’, it also checked that box. That said, you guys have gotten me to crack my safe much larger than I normally would/do, and have always given good advice in how and where to do so. For that, I’m indebted, and my enjoyment has been rewarded.

I love this little section of the forums. 👍🏼

Greg,

If I read correctly, sounds like Lucinda will be releasing a series of albums similar.
