That may sound extreme, but there is a good deal of information above 20 kHz that needs correction. If it isn’t corrected, it will show itself as ringing and overshoot. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe V90-LPS’s distortion is very low. Noise ratio is extremely low and all but inaudible. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverload margin is easily adequate for any current cartridge. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll in all, the V90-LPS accomplishes everything necessary for a phono stage. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are many phono stages that are far more expensive and make extraordinary claims for their performance. In contrast, the modest V90-LPS just gets on with the job of doing everything you could reasonably expect from a phono stage. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want top notch performance, and don’t care about the alleged conferred status of buying a high-priced product that offers no better performance than the V90-LPS, then we are of a like mind. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPGRADE ALERT - You've got to hear the V90-LPS powered by the Sbooster Audiophile Power Supply.
