In Reply to: EAR 834P Clone Build. posted by Cougar on December 9, 2024 at 10:06:07:
The EAR (to my ear) was very rich, warm, and robust sounding but "not quite right" (a little rough and distorted) with my MC cartridges. Some folks suggested running it in MM mode with a good outboard SUT. The external Bob's Devices CineMag SUT made a big improvement to EAR SQ with MC cartridges. If you're running strictly MM it shouldn't matter.Pretty impressive PCB and nice build!
Congrats!
