Note that Tir Na HiFi does not take any responsibility for transactions arranged or carried out here. It is up to the seller and buyer to check each other out! Please be sensible folks, and if there is something you think is wrong, let a mod know, OK?

To make it as clear as we can, here are some simple guidelines:

a) like any forum, the success of tirnahifi is entirely dependent on discussion. All members are encouraged to participate in discussion of music, hifi, etc.
b) tirnahifi is not designed to be, nor intended to be, a marketplace. Any member who uses the site merely for selling will be looked on suspiciously.
c) those members who choose to sell on the site should be aware that the mods do keep an eye on the stuff for sale, plus the demeanour of the seller. Sometimes we may lock/delete/ban a sales thread on this basis.
d) honesty is paramount in all selling transactions. Commercial sellers who label themselves as such are accepted at the discretion of the moderating team.
e) All ads have to include information about age, price, provenance, etc.
f) THE MODERATING TEAM RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE ANY ADS AT THEIR DISCRETION.
g) Commercial sellers should approach any of the moderation team in advance of posting. First time commercial posts without moderator contact will be removed.

Wanted: phono stage

Post by MooseTrackz »

Hi folks,

I'm looking for a reasonably priced phono stage for my MM turntable, nothing extravagant thanks. I'm sure there's something tucked away in a closet/cupboard/attic collecting dust that needs a new home.

Thanking you (in advance)

Try the MM circuit on that pre-amp .... with the volume turned way down! (feedback/distortion/devils screaming) As I said I never got it to work properly but I suspect there's very little wrong with it.

a very short lived renaissance, as you so rightly predicted much humming and other very frightening noises at very low volume (1st stop on dial). Needed trying though. i'm still looking......

I've just replaced a Rega FONO with a Naim Stageline.

As I got the FONO from a Naim forumite for free it seems churlish not to pass it on for free.

PM me if interested.
