Hey gang-

When I bought my Hagerman Bugle a while back, Jim set the gain high so it would work with the DL-103. While the sound was excellent, I found there was too much hiss present in my setup, and went to a SUT + MM phono combo.

Today I was looking at the Bugle and thinking it would be nice to get the gain lowered so that I could run it from my SUT and compare it to my Bottlehead Seduction. Can any friendly DIYer give me a rough idea of what would have to be done to get the gain on this sucker back down to stock levels?

replacing a few resistors

Shoot Jim an email (unless it is something that is covered in the manual). He's always seemed quite approachable on other forums and I'm sure he'd provide suggestions.
