    Zen Mod's Iron Pre (Balanced version)

    I was in my friends stereo store doing customer repairs pick-ups and drop-offs. He gives me this Pre-Amp, saying "here's a chassis for you to play with" meaning without saying: "I think this is junk" Turns out this is essentially a DYI kit that you can source on the NET. It didn't work. Had...

    Should I get a balanced turntable when it's next to my computer?

    There's a meter (3.2 feet) between the TT and the computer. Going to run a cable from the RIAA amp (that's next to the TT) to an external soundcard that's on my computer table. The computer is beneath.

    Help, I do not want to make an Ayre, What the heck?

    Is a stellar unbalanced preamp good enough…?

    I’d really like a sub $2000 preamp with a good phono stage, and balanced inputs. I suppose I could do without the phono for the time being, and get an out board later. I don’t like the idea of dealing with tubes either. I’ve been considering used preamps like the Threshold SL10 or Motif MC-9 (w...

    connecting equipment with XLR: mixing balanced and single ended

    Long title sorry about that. I have a Modwright preamp (LS100) that has XLR inputs that are specifically noted as being "wired single ended". I am about to get a Lumin D2 DAC/streamer that has XLR outputs noted as being "balanced". I did a little reading to understand the difference in how...

    Balanced turntable outputs - thoughts?

    I'm reposting this from elsewhere as these fora were recommended highly. So... I have a fully balanced setup in my home system. I'm now thinking about adding a turntable to it (been thinking for many years now) - I'm ready now but the tts I looked at within my budget ($1000) are terminated with...
