steve, what loading does the denon demand? I have a DIY phono (Joe Curcio design) that I can lend you. Currently it's loarded at 280 ohms or something.
that's very generous -- thanksit's been a while since I went through the loading calculations and research but I remember following something like this:The stock 103's output impedance is 40 ohms so look to load it between 100 and 400 ohms.Most guys settle around 100-200 ohms I believe...
well then, if you'd like, you can borrow it .... i'll go home tonight and check for sure to see where's it's loaded at.you can look in my gallery and see it as well. it's under DIY tuan
Steve, I have a ring clamp and i think its nice to have, but I wouldn't worry about spending cash on it. Regarding the SDS and center weight, hold off, the classic sounds great the way it is. you'd be better off getting a better cart, IMO, and or a phono cable and pre...don't know what you are using now but it may make a difference.Tuan
Tuan,Thanks for the help. I'm listening to a slightly used Shelter 501 II. It is awesome.
I'm running an all tube system, but have some very detailed planars, so wanted something a little laid back. I'm worried the Zephyr might be a bit too detailed for me.
