I would be trying it at 300 to 400 ohms too! - Timbo in Oz 00:11:35 02/03/10 (2)

How does it compare to your Hagerman Cornet 2 ?? - AbeCollins 18:59:30 02/02/10 (6)

A bit early. The Phonomena is quieter. And a SUT isn't required - Opus 104 19:14:09 02/02/10 (5)

Whoa! Back-up here a second.... - JimK 13:45:07 02/03/10 (1)

Yup. It's quieter than the Cornet 2. Not night vs day quieter - Opus 104 14:41:47 02/03/10 (0)

If you decide you like it better... - VynylTap 20:34:01 02/02/10 (2)

Sorry, I'll be keeping the Cornet regardless. /nt\ - Opus 104 04:27:54 02/03/10 (1)

Most components character changes during break in. Some more than others. - Opus 104 17:30:15 02/02/10 (2)

So does it get better or worse? - ErnLind 17:45:43 02/02/10 (1)

Yep. Then get better the rest of the break in. /nt\ - Opus 104 18:07:07 02/02/10 (0)

Isn't the JD 9 basically a solid state amplifier section with a tube buffered output? - RP 07:34:45 02/04/10 (1)

Strange. They told me just the opposite. /nt\ - Opus 104 11:12:27 02/04/10 (0)

Yes. The gain stages are all op amps, but tube rolling does - Opus 104 04:53:26 02/03/10 (0)

The Phonomena is more open on top with more air and space. - Opus 104 15:37:15 02/02/10 (0)
