I have been playing with a modded Atma MP-3 to replace my highly-regarded (and expensive SS line and phono preamps). Very nice improvements I can describe only in non-engineering terms like: "more 'there there'," "rounder," more "relaxed," more "air" and "sense of space," non-"transistory." In short, I am enjoying it more. But - - and it's a fairly small "but" - - it is a bit noisy when used with my Miyajima Madake low-output moving coil cartridge (.23 mv). The obvious solution is a step-up xformer. But which one? Atma sells the Jensen 347, but Dave Slagle also makes one as does S.A. Lab and several others. Has anyone made a comparison? What are your recommendations. |
