[quote user="JohnDuncan"]I think so, yes. Arcam do some of the best built-in phono stages, undoubtedly, but the Cambridge is class A, dual mono, low noise, MM/MC, cool blue light - the works.
It's the best component I have, performance/price-wise, but it will depend on your table - you wouldn't hear much difference with a Debut and an OM5, for example, but I wouldn't be getting worried about it holding things back until I have my Gyro/Kontrapunkt B combo..........[/quote]
Yeah, fair enough. My table is project Xpression 1 with a Clearaudio Classic Wood Cartridge.
