GRAHAM SLEE GRAM AMP 2 COMMUNICATOR PHONO PREAMP

The Gram Amp 2 Communicator phono preamp is a stripped down professional performer specifically designed to give the record playing listener on a low budget full scale performance you won't get from anything else close to its price. Starting out life as the "plain" Gram Amp 2, it earned legendary status within weeks of its introduction back at the turn of the century in the year 2000. Ten years plus onward, it retains its original circuit configuration and thus offers full scale musical performance that sounds exceptionally superb. To be able to continue making this astonishing phono stage preamp at a price you can afford Graham Slee stripped out all the costly cosmetics and what remains is a small, neat and presentable aluminum box with "musical gold" on the inside! The Gram Amp 2 Communicator phono stage preamp is supplied with a universal voltage energy efficient plug-in wall power supply. It can also be powered by the PSU1 power supply which can be ordered separately.

Reviews
"What I didn't expect was for it to sound stage like a four-figure preamp"
- Geoff Husband, TNT Audio (February 2001)

"It concedes little indeed to more expensive designs and kept us entertained for hours. Timing is first-rate, instrumental timbre convincing and detail resolution frankly impressive..."
- Hi-Fi Choice (December 2001)

"Switch to the power rock of Led Zeppelin II and the Gram Amp 2 delivers both crashing cymbals and deep thundering bass with ease" - What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision (June 2002)

JICO SAS replacement Shure N-95ED stylus
bradley oswald (Rahway, US)
Old records seem new again

Moving to the Jico n95 SAS/B from the original m95 elliptical stylus makes one want to listen to the emtire record collection again. Even with my full range open baffle setup I am now getting the high end sparkle that one expects. Pairs up perfectly with open baffle setup.

Improved the sound.

Thank you!

Hope I actually receive it…still waiting 😞

KYOCERA PL-601 Turntable Replacement Belt
Mary Hause (Bonney Lake, US)
Tada!

I shy away from electronics problems, and I've been avoiding a peek at wiring difficult to get to, to see if that was the reason my turntable hasn't worked for a couple years or more.
I finally took the pad off the platter abd removed tge platter to find the belt was disintegrated! Ordered a new one, put it on, abd tada! My turntable works!
Next up: a new stylus, perhaps.

Not as pictured.

Don't get me wrong, I think the item is great, it's just not what was pictured. I was expecting to see your logo on the head shell.

A new life!

It was great to find a new styli for my old Audio Technica AT3500 cartridge, at a reasonable price. It brought new life to my vintage system.

Don't buy the #15 dollar replacement

Don't buy the $15 replacement stylus on eBay, it sounds like shit, this one sounds amazing
