I'm digressing a bit but I seem to recall James saying that the mm/mc phono stage in a BP26 is the same as a BP1.5. That being the case, is there similar internal adjustability with a BP26 for gain etc. as with the stand alone phono stage?
 
Furthermore, I hava a somewhat rare and oddball Rega Apheta cartridge on my P9 - are the factory settings for the Bryston phono stage appropriate? I'm having trouble deciphering this stuff: http://www.rega.co.uk/downloads/Apheta%20Manual.pdf and http://www.rega.co.uk/downloads/Ios%20manual%20.pdf  and reconciling it with the BP1.5/BP26mm/mc manuals.
In short, are the Bryston factory settings such as they are on my BP26 mm/mc fairly optimal for my Rega Apheta's needs?

Thanks James, when you've got a chance.

Hi,

Yes the BP26 phono stage is identical so it can be configured as you wish.  It looks like the Rega Cartridge would be fine with the standard 22.5dB gain setting given the 15 ohms output impedance and the 100 ohms loading.

Is it possible to have this riaa installed in my BP26 and what will be the cost?

Hi James,

I did send Mike Pickett an e-mail yesterday 23.07.11, but have so far not had any answer.

I did also send him e-mails regarding some trouble with my 4BSST2 on 04.01, 28.01 and 17.03.11, but have never heard from him.

Sure you gave me the correct address?

Regards

Ketil

Hi Ketil,

He is back on Monday I believe - I will forward this to him at home.

Hey James, is it possible to add the subsonic filter to the internal phono stage in the BP6? I ask this because I get woofer pumping on some records.

I do not think so but email Mike Pickett
