ESE Nibiru Phono Stage


I saw some press and commentary about this around 5 years ago but not much recently.

Anyone using it or have experience with it in their system?

I am really interested in whether you get the highs worked out. How many hours have you played it? Do you think there is any chance it is not broken in yet?
I have maybe 200 hours on it so far. I have been told it uses teflon caps so it may not be broke in yet. It has opened up some since new. It's not bad just not quite as open sounding as my Plinius M-14.

As for my cartridge I'm using an ESE Inanna sb. I'm really impressed with it. It has a boron cantilever and micro ridge stylus. Output is .3 mv and impedance is 1 ohm which is ideal for the Nibiru. I have about 150 hours on the Inanna sb.

I have a few other carts and the Inanna is my favorite. My other carts are van Den Hul Colibri XGP, van Den Hul Frog, Dynavector 20xl, and a Rega Exact 2.
