Liner Notes

The circuitry in the X-LPS rivals components four times the price. The RIAA is very accurate, the noise ratio is excellent and overload margins are good. Generally, its technical performance on both MM and MC is on par with some highly expensive stand-alone phono stages. Subjectives are personal, but the X-LPS will stand up to the best. At such a meager price, many might miss this little marvel. Forget the price and listen to the music.
