Cambridge Audio's US$299 Phono stage / headphone amp....
Michael Fremer recommends it for the price:
" Simply put: the Duo was a more than pleasant surprise, producing a generously sweet sonic picture that was well-extended from top to bottom, midrange-neutral and that honestly presented all of the acoustic instruments—all in front of a commendably quiet backdrop. Imaging was reasonably solid and soundstage depth was particularly good though for more you'll get wider, deeper and especially taller. "
" I can't imagine anything for $299 could sound much better. "
WHAT HI=FI concur that Cambridge got this one on 'target':
" It's a well-specified, full-bodied, dynamic performer, as classy as a matinée idol in a smoking jacket. You really can’t go wrong. "
