Klyne 6PE: comments ?


I (relatively) seldom see feedbacks on Klyne products, though thye're always very positive.
what about a Klyne 6PE ? is there anybody out there who can describe and "review" this phono stage ?

"They are mutually exclusive,..."

mmm.... I disagree ;)

I know many who do. Some feel that you can have it all. In over 35 years of listening, I've yet to hear the yin and the yang extremes in one system. I've heard many systems with extreme yin, and many with extreme yang, most are somewhere in between.

"...most folks try to find the balance that suits their tastes the best."

but that's undoubtly true: I'm wondering if the Klyne could be "my" balance point

Unfortunately, the only one who can answer that is you. There is no harm in doing your due diligence and trying to ask for guidance, but no one here will truly understand your musical tastes or understand your system synergy. Many here try to help, and over the years I have found some suggestions helpful, and others not so helpful.

In the end, it's your money and your decision. I can see no harm in trying a Klyne if you can find one, they are easy to sell if you don't like it.
The problem is generally, that most do not understand what their System does. They compensate it with the hope to find a unit which was MSRP $40.000,-- for $2500,-- WITH great reviews AND a lot of thumbs up in forums.
Unfortunately this is very rare :-)
Top Phonostages are very rare, no matter how many there are out there. When you don't know what to do, go for a Wheat, each of them is Reference, Signature, Super Signature, Reference Signature and - of course - always ultimate. More than that, a Game changer. :-)
Syntax, I'm only asking informed technical comments, that's what a hifi related forum is all about.
I know that "Reference" or "Limited edition" will not tell me about the peculiarities of an amp and if it matches my tastes, but neither "really, really good" does :-)
Well, guys, you convinced me in the end.
I took it; when it comes I'll let you know my opinion, if you will.
