RE: MP3 phono cascode mod

Posted by MP on December 16, 2022 at 08:02:01:
After re-read the old threads, I did the "Cascode de-activation mod) - removed the middle two 12AT7 and placed 9-pin adaptors with jumper wires soldered in.

The phono stage is much quieter, no tube rush with volume setting up to 4 O'clock.

Sound is more transparent with bigger stage. Playing at volume level is at 12-1 O'clock. Much happier.
