Which phonostage for DV 10 X 5 Mk2

Yes, please do.

We are here to help.

Thanks for your support, Guys, much appreciated.

I was beginning to think that I had made a big mistake joining this forum, and looking to get a Graham Slee phonostage.

I see that there are two PSU's available for some of the 'stages, whereas the top of the range ones use the top of the more expensive one(s). Surely it would be best to only have the one psu for the  lower models in the range ? It would make more sense to me to only have the best for the best, as the xtra money for the  better psu  puts the lower range into the upper range ,pricewise. Just my initial thoughts, but tell me if you still use the entry level psu's with your phonostages, or have up-graded them since original purchase, please ? Cheers

  The step from the standard to the PSU1 is significant. The lower end models (still superior to price competitors in my experience), also benefit from the PSU1, but this brand has always been about the best possible value for money. Models like the Reflex M really give their best with the PSU1. Indeed, when it was top of the line not too long ago the PSU1 was the obvious match. 

The Enigma power supply is a recent development designed for the Accession, but many have tried it with other products and report benefits. As they say, your mileage may vary.

Having the upgrade option available for the lower models is a nice way to split the cost over time. Having had products with all three power supplies, I can assure you that each is supplied with the appropriate power source, but the upgrade options are always there. My personal two cents? If you’re buying a Reflex M, you really shouldn’t short change it. Get the PSU1 if you can afford it right away. 

Happy listening,

Mick.
