RE: the Doge 8

I don't know about the upgraded Doge, but the previous version had a pretty noisy FET MC stage. Objectionably noisy with my .25mV Denon.
The phono stage performed much better with an external SUT. With the latter it was quiet, though not as noise free as my ARC SP16.

I liked the Doge - a smooth, dynamic full bodied sound - but ultimately it didn't 'gel' in my system. Internal build quality/soldering was...well, 'dodgy'. Nowhere near the quality of the ARC in this respect.
