Evening all. Now, this is by no means meant as any criticism of Rega (longtime Rega fan here with an almost entirely Rega system). But… why do they appear to have increased the capacitance value of the MM phono stage within the Brio and Elex R to 220pF when the ratings for their standalone MM phono stages is 100pF?
I’ve just bought a used Elex R from these pages (and I’m looking forward to receiving it) but didn’t look into this before buying it; thinking it would be the same as the phono stages and my current Mira3 (100pF)…
I’m now worried about how this will work with my cart (AT VM 740 ML). It doesn’t seem a good match, unlike the phono stage in the Mira3.
Could the quoted specs online for the Elex R possibly be a misprint? If not, I’m puzzled at this seeming discrepancy? (But it might sound fabulous anyway…)
Thanks
