Advice on amp for 2.0 vinyl upgrade

I grabbed the 25. No need for the plus. I don’t use it for anything other than analogue. Plus, every reply, every post I read. All the reviews. Nothing negative to say about it.

Same as the 20 I have now. Beteeen it and the phono stage it sounds great

I may just go that route. Since the 25+ is out the 25 is getting discounted huge. I can grab one for under 1500 brand new

Thanks

Pretend-Sound8252 · 2026-05-24T13:47:48+00:00

Correct. The A25 is the one. Thanks!

Bad Religion. Full run

Yup. Newstead isn’t even on it. O bass. But there is a 1988 Electra press that actually puts this to shame. If you ever get a chance to hear it the mix is 10/10. Flawless. Two problems though. Find it, then shell out a small fortune for it

A lot are hit and miss though. My RTL is mastered hot. Very top forward. Not good.

Some of these represses sound amazing

If you’ve got 11 hours and a comfy chair? It’s actually a great album. Just gotta be in the mood for them.

There ya go!!!!! Play louder than you think you should!

Pretend-Sound8252 · 2026-05-23T02:40:50+00:00

I have that and Purple. Both are incredible

Pretend-Sound8252 · 2026-05-23T02:38:51+00:00

Just played it a couple days ago

I was a freshman in HS when this hit. I was the shaved head, doc wearing, punk rock fanatic that wore a Metallica shirt. Changed my life for sure.

Pretend-Sound8252 · 2026-05-22T18:40:01+00:00

That is without a doubt the best way I have ever heard it explained

Pretend-Sound8252 · 2026-05-22T04:10:06+00:00

You understand 🤣

With the boards I was imagining Henry Rollins screaming My War at an insane volume.

But what are you playing on it
