Re: Recommendations for Tube Phonostage with XLR/balanced outputs
Hey Mike, have you thought about Nick Doshi's new phono stage? I'm not familiar with it (but Myles did a recent review) but Nick's R2R pre is excellent and he specifically favours differential balanced designs.
Likely a little over the $10k point.

Too bad the Zesto phono don't have XLR out. I thought it was excellent at RMAF.

Yes! He makes great stuff. I also spoke to Kevin a VAC about an XLR option on their new sub-$10k phono. Originally Posted by tunes

I upgraded the power supply on my Gigafoil v4 to a Weiss PSU 102. It’s very nice step up. But with the new model, you’re looking at $2000 before even investing in a SOTA linear power supply.
