Aragon 47k

[J!m]

Nice sounding phono pre. RCA in and out; adjustable gain (3 steps) and loading via internal jumpers. Standard external power supply but I have a bunch of info on upgrading that with a small lab supply for less than the fancier Aragon supplies.

Anyway, probably worth around $350 since it has a couple dings on it. Nothing on eBay for quite a while to get a price check but a few around the world for $250-$650. The upper price ones have the fancier power supply.

Open to trades too- still need an arm…

Possibly sold via Audiokarma (boxed at least awaiting confirmation and payment)

Waiting for a decent balanced version to show up Jim

I was begging Wyn to design his to accept (naturally) balanced input from the cartridge…

if ever there was a signal that could benefit from noise reduction and RF interference, this is the one.

His latest is optional balanced output but still single ended input.

He was unable to get satisfactorily low distortion and noise with a balanced input.

His old version speaks for itself and the new version is even better. Crazy

So, other than lack of balanced in, he has a stellar option right now.

This should be going out tomorrow.

One down, 228 to go.
