Unfortunately, I don't have the "luxury" to be at home now as I am currently in Shanghai (I live in Canada, in Montréal suburbs). At the time I purchased my TT, I had no phono pre-amp, so I could not use it anyway. But then, my friend sold me his McIntosh C712 which has the phono stage integrated. Because of that, I decided to upgrade all my Rotel gear to McIntosh haha. I was more eager to listen to my CD collection with my new gear, and jeezz, what a difference. I have still a few things to do in order to have it fully functionning. First, to get back home. Second, buy a decent audio rack (I am looking at the Lovan Sovereign) to have some room to accomodate the TT. Third, get a decent cartdridge. But you know, it is difficult to miss something you don't know I never heard any vynil spinning at my home, yet! |

I think RaceTripper is going for the MC Talisman V2, so maybe he did compare that to the Maestro or has a preference for MC and a suitably symbiotic phono stage to handle loading etc.

I have heard nothing but good things about the Maestro, but I have not listened to it.

Two CA carts coming soon to a virgin MT10. This will be an exciting new experience. Furutech Silver Arrows phono cable burning away on the cable burner & ready to go. TT setup & calibration tools ready in waiting.

Oh, snap, look what landed on my wall bracket this afternoon...with a Talisman v2.
But it's not mine to keep...

Only a little while. My dealer gave it to me to play with until after the weekend. This bad boy seems prone to LF feedback. I have my KAB RF1 low pass filter on.
Working on finding best settings with my Nova Phonomena. Currently at 60 db gain and 475 ohm loading.
