RE: My wife said "Yeah right."

How do you like the PS Audio GCPH overall? Any better or worse than other phono pre's you've had? Have you used more than the Denon with it?

I have been seriously considering it as of late. I built a Bottlehead and absolutely love the sound. However, it lacks two items which I miss very much (on many phono pre's): Mono and Phase. I've got other turntables I can run; so, I might have to be a 2 turntables kind of person, again.

The mono switch is heaven, especially listening to "extreme" stereo (vocals to the right, everything else to the left) type recordings. If doing that creates a phase cancellation scenario... just hit the phase button.

My Revox PR99 has a mono switch. It makes the Etta James: At Last re-issue and my Canadian issue of Johnny Watson: I Cried for You, listenable. With the Johnny Watson, it seems like there might be some phase issues when I go to mono.

I'm hoping the GCPH will be the "archival answer", while retaining the Seduction for everyday listening.
