Experiences on Tom Evans phono stage ?

Take a look at the ASR Mini Basis Exclusive. I just put one into my system and I am stunned!!

I have had an Art Audio Vinyl Reference and an ARC PH7 in the past. I currently have a TE Groove plus SRX and it is by far the best phono stage I have owned and heard in any system. The loading settings are configurable and it is more expensive but worth the money in my opinion. The transparency, imaging and dynamics are really very impressive. I now also own the Tom Evans Vibe preamplifier and Linear B monoblocks which drive my Wilson MAXX 2's. I have never been happier. My previous preamp was an ARC Ref 3 and my power amps were ARC Ref 210's.

I used the Microgroove plus for 2 years. I liked it, but changed to a K&k as bmckenny suggested and I much prefer it, for similar money. The TE is good, but the K&K much better, more musical, if one is allowed to use that term anymore. Very low noise, I can use a very low output Koetsu Onyx with 63db of gain and it is still very noise free

Ive used a Tom Evens Groove Plus SRX for quite some time now and would not consider changing it for anything else. Number one is Tom Evans himself first class in communications and help. Add a super quiet phono amp with air rock solid bass and musical engagement and you have a highly recommended piece of audio gear IMO.
Good luck and enjoy the music.

I have a TE Groove Plus and had it modded to SRX. I can't really fault it and it is happily driving a BENT Audio TVC controller. I agree with Stltrains - it is very quiet and is able to create a really engaging musical experience.
