Romy,

I used second tube grid resistor, 1.8Meg Holco. (I couldn't find 2 Meg chip and good quality resistor: Dell RN60D or Holco or even Caddock MK-132.)
But I felt the deep bus was cut. I tried 1.8Meg Holco & Riken 220K in serial. The deep bus increased.
I just have ordered 2Meg expensive Caddock TF020F in www.partsconnexion.com . I think it will be better that two serial resister. Another option was AN tantal, but it sounds unnatural for my ears.


Does capacitors combination 100pF and 330pF sound more correct that original values 110pF and 330pF?

What is break-in time for new phonostage?

Alex.
