I think 5 million dollars is a bit too much, but the Bauer appears to be a plain looking yet original design. If you are getting the Ayre power supply with the Bauer, then this sounds like a good deal at $5K. This is coming from a direct-drive aficionado. Seems like an Avid Acutus would be similar in concept and cost, for a comparison.
Looking to upgrade from a Clearaudio Ambient (garrard 301 vs technics sp10?)
Hello!
I have been using audiogon for guidance since I started the hobby 5 years ago and you haven't steered me wrong yet.
I have the upgrade itch and need your help though.
I currently have a clearaudio ambient with a morch dp6 + ART-9 ---> doshi alaap ---> Audiog horizons pre ---> plinius SA-100 ---> Kef reference 1's.
I do love the set-up but feel the table might be a little too clinical sounding. Any suggestions on upgrades in the 5-6K range?. Used is good for me!
Thanks in advance!
