Aethetix IO Signature Question


Is it a very musical phono stage?

Radrog, I use the Aesthetix Io Signature with dual power supplies. In the usual parlance of "musical" versus "analytical," I would say that the Io is in the "musical" camp as far as devices of this caliber are capable of being classified. The Io has a relaxed, somewhat warm, overall presentation, but with exceptional resolving capability. It reproduces the natural bloom of the harmonic overtones of acoustic intruments exceedingly well. Hope this brief response helps.
Thanks for the input. I hope it sounds well with my Krell Solid State equipment.
Hmmm, let me put it this way... A friend just replaced three tweaked out KPEs with an Aesthetix Rhea and the improvement in his system was dramatic. The Aesthetix Rhea devestates the Krell and the Aesthetix Io Signature plays in the league above the Rhea.
