Actually sold it a while back and went with a BAT Rex2 2 box tube preamp. I sacrificed a tiny bit of detail and soundstage overall for a tad bit of warmth. In my system it was the right choice. Otherwise the Ref52 was awesome! Still miss that palm size remote though!

Sorry for the late reply-- yep that remote is the best- I may look at that BAT--warm wins!!!

How does the 526 stack up against other DAC's that cost the difference of a 523?
Also 526 phono stage, any thoughts? |

The dac on the other hand … It is NOT a value as there are many dacs I listened to even at less than the price differential that are much better than the DAC in the 526. Yggdrasil is the first of many that come to mind here … No doubt these are great preamps … just add the DAC of your choice to get the most out of it and because of that I recommend the 523 which was why I had bought that originally after comparing the two, then upgraded, etc, etc, etc George |

In the No 52 HIFI news article, download from ML site, for the phono stage, it states "Custom input loads, should one be required, can be configured using internal solder-less connections by your dealer."
This sounds like jumpers possibly, has anyone done this or have more info on how this is done? thanks. |

It dawned on me that I should be able to also set the load to the option of 47K, and then use loading plugs. Example 900 ohm resistor used on a loading plug (1 male RCA to dual female RCA) would give me ~900 ohm resistive load?
