Hi:
I was following the thread the last few days for a different reason than most of the previous participants. I have a Supratek Chenin that has only a MC input and I want to experiment with one of the Moving Irons made by Soundsmith that require a MM input. Currently mi analogue rig is Teres 255/Triplanar VII/Zyx Airy 3 and I am puting together a second analogue rig that would be finished in a couple of weeks. I bought a Townshend Rock III with a Moerch DP-6 and a totally refurbished Lenco L 75 (with a 70 pound plinth) with a Micro Seiki MA 505. I want to install the Soundsmith The Voice in both of those tables and see how it sounds. I can even install the Moerch in the Lenco and see what happens. That is the reason I am looking for a dedicated MM pre-pre. Thank you very much for this very informative thread and the options that you are considering. I will look for the K&K, Whest, Aqvox, Haberman and Allnic here on Audiogon and buy one of them. Regards, Pablo.
