Stageline into 202 or Flatcap 2

Posted by: okyknot on 02 March 2004

Greetings,
Would it be better to run a Stageline into a 202/Hicap, or into a Flatcap 2 to the 202?
Thanks

Your question isn't clear. Are you juggling with the options of buying a HiCap to use on the 202 and buying a Stageline, or buying a FlatCap2 and a Stageline to be used together with the 202 ?

I use a HiCap on a Nait 5, with the Stageline powered from the Nait. I haven't tried Stageline from the HiCap with the Nait being standard. My reasoning was that I wanted to get as much HiCap benefit as possible and I listen to CD as often as I listen to LP.

You'll find on old threads on here that most experience points to better overall performance if phonoboards or stages have their own power supply and are not taking a part of the preamplifiers supply.
