OK, got it.
The MSP II reads to be more upfront/exciting.

Musical Surroundings Phonomena II+ -OR- Moon 110lp v2 -OR- Parasound ZPhono XRM Phono
I have a Rega P3, which one would be my best bet? Does anyone know the differences and weather the Musical Surroundings is nearly twice as good as the Parasound, as the price suggest?
What I am lacking from my setup is detail. The more complex the music is, the blurrier it gets

it is more accurate too. There are sounds that are simply not "read" by the MF. High frequencies mostly. After my 2 months long testing 4 subwoofers and 1 phono stage, and my limited budget, I need to decide which one I need more. Given that I never really enjoyed any of the subs, maybe should test other phono stages. This one seems a bit harsh.

thanks @audphile1 I see that that’s what you have (besides other models). I will look into it |
I had the Vibe MkII. Upgraded to 20/20. A nice step up from the Vibe. Same smooth and natural presentation but more detailed, quieter and more engaging. If you can find a used 20/20 and can swing it, you won’t regret it. FWIW, I was using a low output MC cartridge with the Vibe and it kept the noise floor low enough. Both phono amps offer flexibility to dial in pretty much any cartridge. For your set up, a phono amp on the level of 20/20 is more appropriate. |
