Arrived in perfect condition. Even not even broken in I can tell this is going to be a good phono stage. :)

If John Darko can make a product announcement and call it a mini-review then so can I.... :p

On a serious note, initial (3 albums) impressions are very favorable. Deep and layered texturing of instruments, subtle nuances of stings, each stoke of a violin having it's own unique nuance and character. The Jasmine has been reviewed by many already, this thread will simply be my impressions. I don't hear anything bad or negative about the sound.

My past equipment:

Musical Fidelity V-LPS - excellent for the money
Ray Samules F-117 Nightwawk - Really good and several levels better than the V-LPS,
Wright Sound WPP100 / Bent Audio MU Copper - Very musical combination, although the slight tube hiss can be annoying

I'll post more impressions if there is interest....





Congrats on achieving both , a new phono stage and the shortest review heevar ...:)

The Jasmine is fully burned in now, as well as my ZYX (Yatra) phono cartridge. I will be following up in about 7-10 days with listening impressions as well as a comparison against the RCM Sensor Prelude phono, which I am currently have on home trial. I'm pretty sure the RCM will wipe the floor with the Jasmine, but I'm curious to see by how much.
