Fidelity Research FRT-4 vs. Entre T-100 SUTs

Vinyl Asylum

Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

Hi all,

Anyone have experience with both of these SUTs? I want one or the other, and need to decide whether the FRT-4 is worth the $250 more or so that it costs.

Feature-wise, the only arguably salient differences are:

The FRT-4 has a captured output cable with a ground wire, while the T-100 has RCA out. (Would one run a ground wire from it to the phono pre, or is grounding the tonearm at the SUT sufficient?)

The FRT-4 has 5 settings: pass, 3, 10, 30, and 100 ohms. The T-100 has 4: pass, 3, 10 (or 20, depending on the version) and 40.

Given the inexactness of impedance matching, each seems flexible enough for any cartridges I might use.

So the issue comes down to build quality and sound quality.

Thoughts?

(I'm posting this query on A'gon as well).

Thanks,

Richard
