On vinyl and never heard it sound better - presently breaking in iPhono amp.
So far, so very good.

Great stuff Markof! Have you started experimenting with all the various settings yet :)

Most of the switches on the base are concerned with customising setup for individual cartridges (load, capacitance etc.) . Once done the other main control is a switch on the front for choosing between 3 RIAA curves - seems that different record companies used different "standards" when biasing recordings for lp. This switch can also be used as a tone control depending on taste.

Overall the iPhono is a big improvement for me in SQ over my previous phono amp (NAD) and reveals what a decent turntable/cartridge combo the Pro-ject/Ortofon 2M Red has turned out to be.
BTW no rumble/wow or motor noise problems experienced with the TT (debut carbon esprit).

Thanks for that Markof. Glad to here it was a sound buy. Enjoy!

For the day that's in it. Pure ancient black diamond travelled grooves. And then there was two....RIP Ray Manzarek. Not their best album by a long shot but I always loved the imagery both inside and out.

The piano solo on Riders is simply exquisite and was probably my first real introduction to the piano sound in Rock music and, of course, what a keyboardist of Ray's ability could do....

Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out alone
Riders on the storm'
