Description
One Vintage John Curl Vendetta SCP-2C Phono Stage (C version Upgrade)I am selling this for my friend, noted audio reviewer and circuit designer, Bascom King. Here is what Bascom says about this rare item:
"This is a phono stage that we used in the Infinity Systems sound room somewhere in the 80’s. I, Bascom H. King, was able to get it for myself and have used it in my own systems over the years since. It always has sounded good to me. Note that this is a dedicated moving coil circuit with a gain of about 60 dB and an input impedance of 47K Ohms. This unit has been modified to have an additional input jack paralleled with the original for each channel. This allows the insertion of a RCA input plug with the desired moving coil loading for the moving coil pickup to the used. Included is a pair of such plugs with 100 Ohm resistors."
The photos include a screenshot from BHK Labs Audio Precision depicting the RIAA equalization of this unit.
