I would be interested to know how this compares with a refurbished B77 or PR-99 from a specialist such as Nagravox, wired to an external PB head preamp or using an upgraded PB card from Audvance. The cost of the ATR10 is substantially higher.So back to Sonorus ATR10 MkII ... I have one on order and it should be here somewhere around the end of the year. Looking forward to getting this in my system after hearing it at the dealer. Was an enlightening experience for me as that was the first time I had really listened to a good R2R and comparing to a really high dollar digital front end was really no comparison at all with the same albums. I'll post my impressions once it arrives and I have some time with it.

I certainly can’t speak to those other solutions as I didn’t audition those … I can only imagine though that the ATR10 would have some potential advantage in that the higher end electronics being internal are connected directly to the playback head and not as an add on solution. That said the ATR-10 is an amazing piece of playback tech and I certainly can’t wait to get it in.I would be interested to know how this compares with a refurbished B77 or PR-99 from a specialist such as Nagravox, wired to an external PB head preamp or using an upgraded PB card from Audvance.

How do you like the PR99 ? Have you compared it to other machines ? If you have not upgraded the electronics, you should investigate this: https://audvance.com/PR99.html Not expensive and worth a try.I am also curious about this. Soren Wittrup rebuilt my PR99 and I have tape head out so a tape pre might be interesting down the road...
