Do I need a sut?
If you like where the MC2000 is taking you an SUT that will work and suit your price ($759) is the MFA 632 at a 1:100 ratio Scroll down this page for instance of its use with the MC2000ii http://gpoint-audio.com/our-collection/music-first-audio/ |
Dear @folkfreak : """
that will work and suit your price """ It's obvious that you have no single idea of the MC 2000 very high quality performance levels that even can/could outperfoms what you have with the right system. I can't imagine ( but it can happens. ) that an audiophile can ( by ignorance. ) " destroy " the magnificent signal information coming from a 10K+ LOMC cartridge using a 700 dollars SUT where even exist not something as essential and critical as its frequency response range ! ! ! How can you recomend it? it does not matters what your SUT are developing in your system. Obviously something wrong down there that added those useless STs with the Q3s. For me as I told @jdodmead it's better to stay as he is than spend money in that way and in a company that are " experts " in transformers but can´t gives any single spec other than the ratio. ? ? ? Yes, for you is not important but I'm talking about QUALITY LEVELS not on what " I like it ". Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS, R. |
@rauliruegas as you very well know (if you are as well informed as you claim) MFA is the hi-fi arm of Stevens & Billington, a long established transformer maker. MFA/S&B wind their own transformers to order. The base model, which the 632 series are based around (I believe) is the TX-103, specs on that are available here http://www.stevens-billington.co.uk/page103.htm As all MFA products are built to order you can be sure they will match the needs of your cartridge (ratio, impedance, inductance etc). Anyway I'm not trying to shill for MFA, I'm sure Bob's are just as good, but could not let Raul's slur go by |
That's why I mentioned them as experts. I think that not you or me know if inside that is the TX-103 that's a good SUT but: is it the best out there?. There is something where the designers of the 103 coincide with what I posted here: " to maximize bandwidth ", this parameter is extremely important in a SUT and the 103 is not near the Denon or Technics one, even the T2000 makes it better. I posted more than once in Agon that if I don't owned my active high gain SS Essential 3160 ( up-dated. ) I can live easily using my modified Denon SUT as a fact time to time I use it. R. |
