Exceptionally low noise floor - jaw dropping!
Very high gain level - output from my moving coil cartridge (Ortofon MC Kontrapunkt b) is almost the same level than CD player with balanced interconnect cables!

Pilot light is not the same brightness than that of the EC amps and CD player.
Power supply plug based on UK standard & had to use adaptor to be able to plug it into power conditioner unit.
Resistance cannot be changed to suit cartridge - it can however be factory tuned/ordered with specific resistance.

This is an excellent piece of equipment that does justice to LP's as a medium. It is able to extract a suprising level of detail that is commonly (wrongly) believed not to exist on LP's. Don't however think that it is bright sounding - not at all. Mids are pleasing and natrually sounding while I found low frequencies quite pacy.

Where I find listening to CD's tiring after a while, the hours can just pass by without noticing, so natural and involving is the sound. If you treasure good sound and have a significant LP collection, this is a must have!
