It is a very different design to allow the flexibility. Different circuit, different tubes. Aim was also to get it much more compact. It does have my house sound but if it is similar to the D3a I leave others to judge. Sound is too subjectiveHi, will the phono in sonics be similar to the current D3a, only change being the flexibility added?
The chassis is much more rigid. The prototypes are still in manufacturing. So I have not built the preamp yet so no listening yet. Preamp and power supply chassis just want through an initial surface treatment. Final finishing still to be done.Saw this https://vinylsavor.blogspot.com/2023/12/the-new-chassis.html?m=1
Also, is there any sonic or technical advantage to the new chassis?
