Cornet is up and running so the Bugle is 'redundant'. There are reviews including Stereophile Class C or was it D? Very clear and clean with good dynamics. Much better than a 15 volt power supply and 3 op-amps should be. I turned it into a passive linstage so you can use it to switch between phono and another input ahead of your integrated amplifier. Hagermans kit for the phono board, power supply board and all the parts you need from Digikey are about $130. An assembled turn key unit from Hagerman is $399. I give you all that plus the extra input, Padauk case work and a Macassar Ebony knob for $300 shipped anywhere in the lower 48. Or best offer. The unit has no hiss or hum and was recently re=packaged into it's current steel and Padauk home. The template slipped when I drilled the RCA holes so they are a little off plumb and there is a small gap at the edge of the IEC input. Send Paypal or Postal Money order. If you don't know me check my feedback at Audiogon where I'm known as Kitch29.
