Further Information

This is a fantastic sounding phono from Sutherland Engineering, it really made a massive difference when I hooked it up.

This is the Insight with the Linear Power Supply, which by all accounts really elevates the performance. It’s retailing at present at $3400. I picked it up for a great price so I’m passing it along a great price also.

For example, conventional designs built to a budget use inexpensive, low-quality computer rocker switches. However, these components are non-optimal for configuring the low-level signal from a phono cartridge. To offer the user a wide range of configurations while maintaining signal integrity, the Insight uses gold-plated header pins and gold-plated shunts. They offer high-pressure and large surface area contacts. This is an example where Sutherland Engineering make that extra effort in areas that make a difference sonically. The LPS version incorporates an internal linear power supply. The result is that the noise floor drops even further and the sound becomes even more resolved and articulate against a quieter background.

For those with a taste for understated elegance, the Insight will deliver an enduring pride of ownership. The physical artistry is a means to solid, reliable, musicality. There is no affectation. Just a simple, pure link to your recorded treasures. It faithfully delivers musical joy, year after year.
