It is a cheap Micro. The RCAs look like the ones you get with a Walmart stereo. So I am going to install some female RCA connectors. So I can use my own cables. I do like the DQ-43 tonearm. I may see if I can find one. When I can afford it. So today I have a lot of work ahead of me. Will take pics as I do this.

LOL Dude I'm trying. LOL Just cleaned up the cassette printer. Been printing since 6 am. May have to load more tapes. Will see how many I culled. I have cassettes drying every where. LOL

Well I must of set it up right. It does sound pretty good. I like the auto feature. I don't have to jump up at the end. Still going to do some mods. See if that improves the sound. Listening to some ole Rainbow right now. Sounds good. This little Bellari phono amp kicks some serious butt.

Larry, I don't think you'll hear much diff in the sound with new patch cords/interconnects. I don't know why, just make sure you have a good connection to the pre and a proper ground :thumbright:

But, by all means report your findings :brilsmurf:

I found some mods for the Bellari. 1st change the tube then do some soldering. The ICs now look like they came from a Walmart stereo. Can't have that. LOL
