Here we have a Cullen Circuits upgraded GCPH.

Rick Cullen of wyred 4 sound was fully endorsed by his friend Paul McGowan of PS audio to upgrade these units.

As you can see in one photo the upgrade consisted of .

1 .replace all coupling caps with Muse audio grade.

2 .aďd cullen modified gain cells.

3 .replace rca with wbt next gen.

4 .improve psu.

5 .change all resistors to 0.1% Dale copper leaded.

6. ERS Cloth.

Having owned the stock standard GCPH prior to this I can say that the Cullen upgrades bring a level.of transparency and fine micro detail and just a more real natural sound to the already great sounding stock unit.

These phono stages are very versatile with phase and mono settings.

And best of all a remote control of all functions.

It can be used as a normal phono stage into your amp or if vinyl is your only source as a preamp via its rca or xlr outs directly into your power amp or active speakers for a simpler and less stuff in the signal path setup.

RRP on these was $1499 USD which is around $2175 aud.

Not currently setup but can do that if a local buyer wants an audition.
