Hagerman's Cornet 3 phono preamp on Kickstarter
[Hagerman has been at just about every show we ever covered. Not ultra high-end but has seemed like decent gear for a decent price.]
What’s cool about this, for us, is that you can order the unassembled version for quite a bit less money and solder it together yourself. SOMEDAY we want to do this. Seems like a gentle way for us EE-types, and just gentle folk in general, to start learning real world electronics [I know what a transformer looks like, etc., but I can’t recognize basic designs just by looking at them. We both would *love* to be able to do this!]
