When using the Manley Steelhead I always oreferred the sound of the lowest amplification factor (50) on the MM input but then needed the volume control at near max to get some decent listening levels. Well Sir, I am blown away by the Koetsu Onyx on the Hashimoto SUT, still on the 50 gain position, that Koetsu sound I love is hugely improved. Dynamics on big band recordings are now really impressive. The volume control is loud at the quarter to position. Vocals are superb and the stage very good too Wish I'd done this a long time ago! |

Which side on the a23 step up is the input versus output, and left vs right ?
They are unmarked. |

Output gets the ground cable. For right / left : you choose. No matter. Just be sure to have both right channels on the same side of the transfo.

But the ground wire is in the middle of mine?

I believe it is the complete opposite. The INPUT side is the one with the ground cable in the middle of the RCA jacks. I just picked up an A23 step up for Ortofon SPU cartridges and a second one for Denon DL 103 carts. At some point, I'd look to getting the Hommage as well, both T1 and T2. These step Ups are really stunning with their intended matched cartridges. EDIT: I wanted to come back and edit this post. Jerome is right for the Denon DL-103 version. As of today, I own both versions and the peculiar thing is that for the Standard A23 Step up for the Ortofon transformer, the input side has the ground wire. For the Denon DL-103 Standard A23 version, the output side has the ground wire. Very confusing, but once setup, who cares.
