Frequently Asked Questions
The Rodec stage is generally cleaner and more detailed, with a flatter frequency response, while the MX-180 has a warmer, slightly colored sound.
The EQ is best for subtle tonal adjustments – it's not designed to fix major issues like severe tracking distortion or impedance incompatibility.
The bamboo enclosure imparts a subtle warmth and reduces some harshness, but the core sonic performance is still primarily dictated by the preamp circuitry itself.
