After 14 years, the man from down under has finally gotten himself a bonafide hit. Not that the Dynavector P75 mk 1, 2, and 3 weren't good before, especially if you had a Dynavector cartridge. This one simply kicks it out of the park...good is good, as they say around the Haven, and this mk 4 is mighty good. Doesn't sound remotely solid state like the other versions. It just sings! The moving magnet setting with a high output moving coil Dynavector 20H is splendid, the special low output setting, the PE (phono enhanced mode , or Dr. T mode as it used to be called for Dynavector of Japan's founder), is even more superb with the low output moving coil Dynavector 20L. I don't get the opportunity much to hear it with other brands of cartridges, so my experiences are generally related to Dynavector cartridges. I did try it with the WTL TLC mm into the mm setting, and while it was okay, the Sugden two stage phono pre was a better match.
Amazingly the price is still $895, a bargain when one considers how improved this version is.
I'd get on this pronto if you have a Dynavector setup already, or if you have the urge to leave your built in phono sections.
This is the shizzle, folks, trust me. Boy, this coupled with the new WTL Simplex has been a great start to the new year for tremendous products. Soon will be new Ayre, VTL, cartridges, cables, tables, speakers....holy cow! As they say, the Haven is on the ascent!
