Further Information

I wouldn't hesitate in saying that you would not likely find a better phono stage for this money-and I tried a lot. Glenn Croft was it's creator and he had a massive reputation for putting his focus on incredible sound and keeping the chassis etc. simple to keep cost down and SQ high. Personally, while enjoying a nicely crafted chassis, I also love the simplicity of this.

 

Some descriptive words that come to mind regarding it's sound are musical, percussive and natural. I never rolled any tubes in it but I read that it is great for tube rolling.

 

I've loved it and it really sung with an SP-10MK2>Univector tonearm>Denon DL103r>Goldenage SUT>Croft RIAA>The Truth preamp>Radford MA50 Power amps>Tannoy Ardens, which you may agree is good company and it more than held up its end.

I used to have one of these, and agree they sound great at a reasonable cost. Not many valve phones stated of this quality are affordable. 

 

I did roll some old stock valves in mine, and it was a significant improvement over the stock valves.
