In Reply to: RE: Any inexpensive stage for playing 78's? posted by bjh on January 29, 2015 at 12:15:08
Hi bjh,
I have linked a somewhat modest priced phono stage which has switchable EQ.
If you use RIAA EQ with 78 they will sound less bright. On noisy 78s you may actually prefer the RIAA EQ as it wiil attenuate some of the noise. Keep in mind that for much of the 78 era EQ was considered proprietary and varied from label to label and from time to time. If you want to be a purest, you will need a phono stage with select-able bass turn and treble cut, then research the record you are going to play.
More important than EQ will be the ability to sum to mono. Consider that a must.

Follow Ups:
This unit looks identical to the Rek-O-Kut Audiophile Archival unit (rebadged?) from Esoteric Sound, whose offerings were posted elsewhere in the thread. However, phonopreamps.com's price is lower.
