Channel D Lino C 2.0

I would like to express my deep appreciation to Stereophile and John Atkinson for their interest in following up on Michael Fremer’s review of our Lino C 2.0 current-mode phono stage.

Accounting for differences in test signal level and output load, JA’s results correspond closely with our own tests. Regarding JA’s statement that’s sample. That might seem to be splitting hairs, but engineering something “better” is gratifying when it’s feasible. It makes me very happy to design a product and find that its listening and measured performance both exceed expectations.
