The Qualia<br />

Indigo<br />

Phonostage<br />

A Purist Approach<br />

By Jeff Dorgay<br />

TONE AUDIO NO.54 NO.53<br />

A nalog music playback has a lot in common with analog<br />

photography: More often than not, the average person on the<br />

street thinks of it as an antique process from an arcane age.<br />

But as you and I know, those who do engage analog music<br />

relish the subtleties it provides. Some even become wildly evangelical about<br />

the experience, while others quietly build a temple to it.<br />

Of course, there are many paths to enlightenment, and those paths<br />

often come down to a matter of personal taste. Much like the photography<br />

enthusiast who uses the same Leica M body armed with a 35-mm Summicron<br />

lens no matter where their photography travels take them, some analog<br />

enthusiasts rely on one turntable, tonearm and cartridge. Those looking to<br />

maximize this type of system will cherish the Qualia Indigo phonostage.<br />
