Classic Audio MM Pro seems to check all the boxes.
Recommendations for MM Phono ~ Tube or Solid State
As title suggests, I am currently using a MC Cart - Etsuro Bordeaux and planning on adding an SUT. The TT is Garrard 301 with Reed 3P tonearm.
SUT under consideration,
1) Etsuro ET-U50
2) Swissonor PPP-PP Hashimoto HM7
3) EMIA Copper or Silver version
On top of my list is Leben RS-30EQ and Accuphase C-47.
Also planning on adding 2nd Reed tonearm with Miyajima Labs Zero or Infinity Cart. From a purist perspective, what would be your recommendation to get the best out of a mono cart.
Thank you!

“Why do you say Allnic has poor resale value?” My earlier comment was based on sales data off USAM. I wouldn’t consider a SUT that is not specifically wound for my Bordeaux cartridge. Anything less than optimal in this application would be a worthless endeavor. Thank you for your recommendation. I will check it out! |
“Do Allnic components sell used at a bigger discount off the retail cost, compared to other major high end brands?” That’s my assessment! In any case, Allnic phono sound and synergy with rest of my components did not exceed my expectations. |
@lalitk I also heard an Allnic phono stage w/ separate regulated psu in my system and it gave less than my more modest dual mono Croft. You might check Abbas Phono stages (I recently ordered a second; dual mono w/ inbuilt MC transformer). A number of owners find these stages render nearly everything you could want in music, as do his DACs. There’s more info to weigh on WBF. |
