Thanks Alan! Just as well there isn’t a lot of music energy at 20khz as my partly damaged, old ears won’t be responding anyway! + the Maggie’s have some resistors in reducing the treble. I’m sure Magnepan are being a bit liberal with their 87db at 1 Watt at 1 metre and isn’t there a little...

Hi Alan, great to hear from you, I’d love to buy something “local”… I’ve got 1.7i Maggie’s; the most I could manage in cost and size, 3.7 being 3x the cost and larger. I got the IDA 4 years ago, everything plugs into 1 unit, 400w into 4 ohm, volume around 50/100 for around 80 db @ 2.5m. The...

Respect and admire your DIY! I got the Maggie’s, IDA amp and a bluesound 2i streamer from Mcleans audio in QLD, they were great to deal with. I put a heap of money and time into a technics 1210 hoping for something reliable, not too far from digital clean and clear but with some LP magic I...

I’ve got a Nuprime ida16 class d integrated; lots of power for my Maggie’s, digital straight in off the iPad / iPhone (since the bluenode decided to be a pain), 1 analogue in for the turntable, until that broke… I’m not having a good run. I’m in Geraldton. I was looking at a Sonnet DAC and...

Trans impedance, that’s what I was racking my brain for! The AQVOX unit I have does mm, mc and mc-ti (only through the balanced inputs). I think it helps if the mc has low impedance. It’s great because the mc has similar output to other line level sources and a similar strong sound. A dac...

Can I put in a suggestion for a current gain input stage for MC? I have a Aqvox 2CI with this as an option which works really well with an Audio Technica MC. A DAC board would be great…
