Phono Stage for Koetsu Black

Tron Seven & Koetsu black would work well.

To each his own I guess. I have used a modified EAR 834P with a Koetsu RSP and it was fine. Currently using the Koetsu with either Shindo Masseto's internal MC (Lundahl transformer) or thru separate Hashimoto SUT. I like these a bit better than the EAR but it's not a major difference.

I also know that Brian Hartsell and Scott Franklin of Wavestream Electronics recommend the Koetsu/EAR pairing for those who can't afford the more expensive Wavestream phono stage.

Thanks all for the advice. Would a Project Tube Box II cut the mustard with the Black Koetsu?

The better the phono stage, the better the Koetsu would sound & give you that Koetsu magic.

Whest Two. Done.
