Where to stick my new U52?
01/04/17 at 21:05:58
 
I had the good fortune to get a NOS U52 rectifier as a gift. I'm interested in knowing where it would have a greater impact: CSP3 preamp or Torii Jr. amp. The obvious answer is to test, and I plan to. However, I'm curious to see people's thoughts.

My bet would be the CSP3 pre amp, but according to my wife I was wrong once a long time ago...Let us know what you find out chengdigger and happy listening, Chris.

Yeah, unless someone's done a similar test with very similar components, it's really hard to say.  There are too many variables in how a rectifier can effect your sound.

I'm curious what you think though.

One thing I like about the ZMA, is that it's solid state rectifier. No fuss, no muss.
