Hi.
After 3 years belonging to this forum, I bought 4 days ago a Reflex M with green power supply.
Living in South America, I had no choice: reviews were the only way to know a little about the Reflex or any phono stage.
There is a very influential person and analog guru in America: Mr. Michael Fremer, of analogplanet.com and Stereophile magazine. He has wrote capsules reviews of the Grand Amp, Era Gold and Reflex, always with great accolades.
I contacted him for advice, sending a brief description of my hifi rig, and the answer was... go for the Graham! Comparisons at the time were: Musical Fidelity M1ViNL, Rega Aria, Lehmann Audio Black Cube SEII...
The other reason was the incredible info and friendship I received from this forum, letting me understand many cues of the product and the almost unanimous satisfaction for the brand.
I´m waiting for my Reflex to arrive, so I have no more comments now, but I´ll do a review ASAP.
For now... thanksClap, Graham!!

You're in for an aural treat.

I was looking for a new and better phono preamp and ended up at GSP home page. After that I read some reviews and decided to give it a chance. i found a used Elevator EXP and bought it. With the Elevator the sound was much better then with med my SUT. 

Right now I´m testing Accession and Reflex M and have problem to decide which one to buy. Accessions have som extra functions, but I'm not sure that I will use them. Any suggestions?

I also testing GSP Spatia speaker cables. I like them a lot.

Hej Eric, If you don't need the Accession functions, then treat them as equal & my suggestion is to let your ears decide Yin Yang

I use and enjoy both these phono stages. In fact, this week I have listened mostly via the Reflex M in spite of a slight preference for the Accession.

Hi Eric,
if you collect Classical or Jazz and might buy older pressings of particular performances, then the extra equalisations of the Accession might be of use.  
If you wish to digitise your records then the variable output of the Accession might be of use.  
The mono switch is also available on the Reflex M if requested at time of order.
