In Reply to: Chris Y--AP Mantissa v. Emotive Erato posted by DK on September 18, 1999 at 04:29:03:
I've been listening to them both for a week now (I've had the Mantissa for 2 weeks). I'm going to listen some more this weekend and post my impressions later this week. Quick bottom line: Both are excellent, the Mantissa seems to me to provide more detail, the Erato seems smoother. More later.
ChrisAre you using the preamps in an all-digital system, one exclusively vinyl, or both?
If vinyl enters the picture, what are you using for a phono-stage? I have heard that Emotive Audio will put out a phono-amp next, and will be curious about that. Does the Mantissa have a phono stage option (I don't remember whether such was mentioned in past reviews)?
Good deal. Since neither has an informative website, would you be kind enough to list the basic features and operability of the two as well? Inputs, outputs, vol control, impedances, etc... I'd appreciate it!
