Had problems with 60cyl hum. Spent 4+ hours troubleshooteing the problem. Wires, grounding, wire placement etc. Final resolution was placement of VPI HW40 turntable away from Manley main unit. Please inform your staff of this as the first thing to try. I had sent a pictures of my setup and placement of components in my rack. Besides that am very happy with the performance and quality improvement of both vinyl and cd sound. Running my McIntosh cd player thru the Manley Line Out. Sounds close to vinyl. Only thing I wish is that the Manley emblem was a bit brighter. Can bearly see it lit up. Any chance that Manley does or could supply brighter LEDs for it?

the variety of settings for both MM and MC cartridges is beyond reproach. This phono amp works especially well with my moving magnet cartridge sold by SoundSmith. Very highly recommended.

First rate product with rather unique features. Has really good loading options and offers 3 inputs ( using all 3 in my system). The unit is very quiet and nice fit and finish. The support from Manley has been very good. Recommend very highly and if you have a table with multiple arms and/or multiple tables it is a no brainer.
