Well, I'm not picking up the stage line till Saturday but first impressions with a Project phono box are very very good. Bass lines are fantastically well defined and the overall tone and timbre of instruments is wonderful. Will post some more detailed thoughts once I've had the stageline up and running for a bit.

Stageline takes a while to come on song, mine was s/h and took a good 10 days to show its true colours !

RE: Rega RP8

In that case the apheta should be into its stride at about the same time. The apheta is a fabulous cart, providing you want to hear what is on the vinyl, and are not wanting the coloured sound some carts give in search of vinyl ''warmth''.
