I just noticed where didn't like the Citation one..When those preamps are rebuilt and upgraded,they are out of this world.Everything about them is brilliant from the phono section to the stepped tone switching which are not actual tone controls that cause phase shift..They can match literally any phono cart and while they are an anode follower type preamp,they lean heavily on correctness and ultra low distortion.I don't think yours was rebuilt and if it was,you would have loved it on the quads.That is if it wasn't just a cheap ma and pa recap.
