Hello Romy,

What brand of 0A2 do you use in your phonostage?
I used RCA, but after 1.5 years of work it began to spark when phonostage is switched on.
I tried Siemens, Mazda and now Sylvania 0A2.
Siemens has "disco sound", without mids, just metallic highs and punchy bass.
Mazda has strong sweet coloration with accent to upper mid and week bass.
Sylvania sounds good, actually more interesting than RCA did. But vocal doesn't sound smooth enough.
Maybe it needs some break-in time?

Regards,
Alex.
