PS Audio GCPH to loud . Where to go next?
« on: 9 Nov 2012, 01:13 pm »
As my system evolves I am realizing that the GCPH makes a lot of noise. It's not hum or anything like that just sort of a sizzle(thermal noise from the transformer?). My system is: almarro a205a mkii ,Cambridge audio Dac magic, Cambridge audio 340c, pro-ject 2 xperience acryl with speed box mkii,Dynavector 17d3 cartridge and the PS Audio GCPH all soon to be feed into my new Tekton Lores( arriving this Thursday).This is where the problem lies. The digital is dead silent when nothing is playing and also has a very black background when playing.I understand that I may not equal the silence of the digital but it should come a lot closer than the gcph does. So any suggestions. This will likely be a lateral move as far as price is concerned but I could stretch a little maybe up to the $1500 range.The new phono preamp would need to have enough gain to handle the 17d3
