So is it true Graham is working on a MM and MC all in one unit version of the Accession? Would it be prudent to wait or will it be the exact equivalent of the Accession and Elevator EXP combined sound wise?

The MC stage will not be Accession MM + Elevator; it will be an entirely new stage. The plan, I believe, is to offer two phono preamps in one enclosure. The buyer would be able to choose MM+MC, MM+MM or MC+MC.

I understand it will be even better than the EXP + Acc combo which I am listening to right now.

I'm confused. Why would you need two moving magnet or two moving coil stages? I get that some people put two arms on a table but I doubt they listen to them both at the same time.

I sort of agree -my vintage luxman had two phono inputs but never used two. MC & MM clear possible benefits but each of us have our own needs.

Anyway, I'd definitely love to hear the MC version of the Accession. So far, I like everything about the AT33PTG/II cartridge. I know anything Graham designs is a knockout.
