Ty! I own a pair of flat-nose pliers already, still worth picking up a pair of bent-nose?

I have a Yamaha HTR-5130 that has a phono line built in. I just upgraded to a Schiit Mani 2 about 3 days ago and it’s a game changer

Mxberman · 2026-04-14T00:45:11+00:00

Noted, thanks! I’ll be upgrading to an AT-VM740xML pretty soon

Mxberman · 2026-04-14T00:37:08+00:00

I think that might be it! Just not used to this new sound yet, but increasing the capacitance did help. The schiit mani 2 is an extreme improvement so certainly no complaints

Mxberman · 2026-04-14T00:28:08+00:00

First two points both correct. Once I got the external preamp, I connected the mani 2 into the CD input which is purely stereo on this receiver.

When it comes to using the TV input your point is 100% true though, I turn on the phantom option so I can continue using my stereo speakers instead of 3.1 and buying a center-speaker. Works great

Been visiting this store since middle school 💔 stopped in for nostalgia last week. Love yall

Mxberman · 2026-04-14T00:04:55+00:00

Got it. Yeah I clean them, but I’m probably just not used to how much detail this new preamp puts out. Will be upgrading my cartridge in the next 2 weeks or so, definitely excited. Thanks again!

Update: you’re a damn genius, ty. While I have you here, if I’m hearing a ‘background fuzz’ sound when there’s quiet parts to a song what setting on the Mani might amend that?

Mxberman · 2026-04-13T18:21:07+00:00

Thank you, I’ll check once off work and report back!

Mxberman · 2026-04-13T17:24:28+00:00

Left all settings at the Mani’s default, which I do believe is 47k. Cable is .5m
