 Nice rca jacks. The specs of the unit is documented, so I won’t talk about that.  I turned it on and left it on for a couple days before I gave it a listen. You can disable the sleep function

  Overall it’s a good preamp. But unless you want your music to sound like someone put a blanket on your speakers, don’t use a cartridge that you know has a warm sound.

 The mid and bass is pretty neutral In my opinion. Treble definitely rolled off.  Overall it’s a good preamp. But unless you want your music to sound like someone put a blanket on your speakers, don’t use a cartridge that you know has a warm sound

 I then put on a cartridge with a known “hot” sound. Very sharp high’s. The Solo made it sound much smoother. As if it tamed those high frequencies

Sounds good, with a brighter cartridge

 The "warmth" of the sound seemed diminished. Using multiple permutations and combinations of different cables (e.g. BJC LC-1, AudioQuest Evergreen and Tower, GAC-1, WBC/Mogami 2534, and KabelDirekt) still did not sound better than my existing hook-up using a BJC LC-1 directly into my receiver's phono input

This item actually produced less-pure sound than the phono stage of my Pioneer Elite SC-99. The high frequencies were somewhat raspy and occasionally shrill by comparison. The "warmth" of the sound seemed diminished. Using multiple permutations and combinations of different cables (e

g. BJC LC-1, AudioQuest Evergreen and Tower, GAC-1, WBC/Mogami 2534, and KabelDirekt) still did not sound better than my existing hook-up using a BJC LC-1 directly into my receiver's phono input. I can't compare this item when used with a receiver with no phono input, but two additional friends with great ears reached the same conclusions.

Didn't Improve Sound

Cambridge Audio AXC35 and Onkyo C7030.  Both are fast, quiet and great sounding.  The transport idea has no appeal for me as I'm not looking to be a DAC addict.

Marantz CD63 MK2 KI Signature. In mint condition, probably not used much before I bought it a few months ago. Works perfectly fine, I see no reason to buy something new. Plus, my dad's setup was all Marantz, so it gets bonus nostalgia points.

Any decent DVD player, even a cheap one plus a good DAC connected via coaxial can give excellent sound. I use a Schiit Modi 3 plus an Oppo DV-981HD.

The tray mechanism on CD players eventually wears out so why over invest? By going separates, you can replace or upgrade either when desired.

As a added bonus you can play videos and route the sound to your speakers in 2.0 sound; don't need a dedicated HT setup.

My main is Yamaha CDX-510 in silver finish to match my vintage Yamaha set-up. It works and it sounds as it should.   


I also use my Xbox Series X for DVD Audio and used Xbox One X for some CD playback before I acquired the Yamaha. I have tested several CD players even new expensive ones but never found it better than what I have at hand.

Question! Question What CD players are you all using? / What do you all recommended? are transports worth it?

 The headphone amp on the Duo is also very good. It pushed the allures as loud as we would ever reasonably want to hear them. Both of these are as good as we have heard for their price. At $179, the Solo is an absolute steal

 For listening, we used a pair of Focal Allure headphones. The first thing that we noticed is that these phono preamps are super quiet, even with the volume turned all the way up. You basically hear silence when there's nothing playing. We would describe the sonic character of these new phono stages as warm and musical

 The front panel of the Solo is minimalistic, with only a power button and the Cambridge logo. The Duo, on the other hand, has the same power button and logo stamp, but also includes a button to select between a moving coil and a moving magnet cartridge, a large volume knob and a headphone jack. When you pop the cover, you'll see a surprisingly stuffed circuit board with great internal layout to keep the power supply separate from the very low-noise phono stage parts. Even to our critical eyes, the board layout and the quality of the parts used are top-notch

 If you currently have or are looking at a turntable with a moving coil cartridge, the Duo will certainly be a great phono stage. The Cambridge Solo and Duo are both available on AudioVice.com and in our Raleigh and Charlotte, North Carolina showrooms. Please feel free to drop by and take a listen

Cambridge Solo & Duo Phono Preamp Review

 Today, we'll be discussing two new phono preamps from Cambridge, the Solo and the Duo.

 At $179 and $299 respectively, they are built for performance and value.

 Let's dive in to see how they stack up and help you determine if one might be a good

 Phono cartridges are typically one of two types, either moving magnet or moving coil.

 Most turntables around $1,000 will come with a moving magnet cartridge.

 The Cambridge Audio Solo is made specifically for this type of phono cartridge.

 For those of you who've moved up to moving coil, the Duo can support either type.

 Plus, the Duo gives you the added bonus of being a headphone amp with the ability to

 The Duo has separate inputs for moving coil and moving magnet cartridges.

 They each follow a completely separated path until they get to the final output section.

 What you don't get is much adjustability.

 We'll dig in much deeper in this on our full written review, which we'll link to in the
