Paul Seydor of The Absolute Sound summed it up:
See full review: https://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/musical-surroundings-nova-ii-phono-preamplifier
To sum up, the Nova II retains all its forebears’ virtues of neutrality
and low coloration, with considerably improved dynamic range,
robustness, and perceived life and vitality: in other words, this new
Nova now has a satisfying infusion of Dionysus in its otherwise
Apollonian personality. Although Yee’s designs are always very quiet and
extremely transparent, this latest one is exceptionally so, ranking up
there with some of the most expensive phonostages I’ve ever heard. Where
does it stand in the marketplace? Limiting myself to recent
high-performance designs I’ve reviewed, it doesn’t have quite the sheer
grip or bottom-end crunch of Plinius’ Koru, which costs three times as
much, doesn’t offer nearly the flexibility, and is trumped by the Nova’s
neutrality. Nor does the Nova have quite the warmth, body, and ultimate
“organic” quality of Zesto Audio’s Andros, but the Andros costs well
over three times as much, isn’t as quiet or neutral, and again has less
flexibility for loading and gain (though the Andros is certainly
adequate in these respects for the pickups I tend to prefer, such as
Ortofon, Dynavector, and a couple of Benz and Clearaudio models). But
when I switch from the Andros to this new Nova, I listen with as much
involvement and equal, if different enjoyment. So just in case I’ve not
made myself clear: The already superb performance of the Nova II’s
predecessor has been made even better in the new model, which means that
a super value is now a super-duper one. I cannot recommend it
enthusiastically enough.
