| Matching phono section with either cartridge or turntable. Actually, jtsnead, that's one I have been considering. I can't afford the Zesto phono sections, but the preamp Leto is fabulous. Thanks for the input. | |
| Matching phono section with either cartridge or turntable. thanks so far. I guess my question can be summed up: is it preferable to match my table or my cartridge with a phono section made by the same company? Clearaudio for my cartridge; Rega for my table. Or doesn't it matter? | |

Andrew9405: I did contact the manufacturers, but they are loathe to recommend any other components. You seem more interested in criticiz... | |
| Is no preamp really better that a good preamp? I should mention that I loved my Cary sli-80 integrated amp, so I wonder if a Cary Slp-03 or Slp-98L would be good choices for me. I'm coming off several surgeries and don't live close to any dealers with top rate gear, so getting out for many aud... | |
| Is no preamp really better that a good preamp? This is getting beyond me, but I appreciate all the input. To summarize: I power Martin Logan Spires with a Spectron Musician III Mk 2.
