ZROCK3 Retrofit 2nd input

Can my ZROCK3 be sent back to its birthplace to have a second RCA input and selector switch installed?

I figured that. I have an inexpensive turntable I use to play old 45s that I inherited from family members. Old scratchy records that can take you back to a time and place that does not exist anymore.

I'm going to plan B, insert a Schiit Sys between my Cambridge CXN100 and my ZROCK3 with the volume maxed.

Right now I just have the turntable >> Sys >> Amp. Now I'll be adding some black box magic to the turntable!

I know that Decware sells a switcher, but the ordering process is too long. I'm in palliative care for health issues.

Sorry to hear about the palliative care. Hope your comfort continues.

A switcher is a good idea. I ordered a ZBIT2 so that I could switch between my phono preamp and my DAC, both using balanced outputs, into my ZROCK3. But I canceled that order when I saw a tremendous deal on a Goldpoint switcher which is truly transparent and as I had another pair of identical interconnects I'm extremely happy with the results, at about a quarter of the price of a ZBIT2 (I was lucky to get the Goldpoint at about a third the price).

Goldpoint SA2X
