CM1's ALL AROUND?
Love the CM1s myself. Mine are S2's and in my office system. Actually listening to them right now. Find them to be very musical, neutral, with surprisingly nice bass for their size. Am about to move and reconfiguring my 2 systems. They are about t...

Well, I believe the EP-X's are pretty much broken in. They sound excellent to me. Great soundstage with accurate instrumental location. They might be a tad warm on the top end, but, on balance, sound is great. This week end we had the girl friend ...

Bpoletti, you know me better than I know my self. Thanks. 
Soundsmith Phono-Pre, Any comments?
Thank you all again. Bpoletti, I did some research on the Herron VTPH-2. That is a lovely phono stage. Some of the best reviews I've ever seen. However, it also points out the big dilemma, $3650 for a great pre and future flexibility vs $650 for a... 
Soundsmith Phono-Pre, Any comments?
Thanks for all the comments. Really appreciate the responses. I'm still contemplating the the plus and minus of going the Soundsmith route or spending a lot extra for something with more flexibility that might suit some future cartridge whim. 
the most underrated 33 1/3 in history?
Two Best "Live" jazz recordings ever( can' decide on which one is best). "The Cannonball Adderley Quintet in San Francisco" or "Bill Evans/The Complete Village Vanguard Recordings, 1962". 
First Turntable Advice
Interestingly, I own both the RP6 and the Scout 1.1, and love them both for different reasons. I was also getting back into vinyl. Now that's all I want to listen to. Bought the Rp6 with Exact cartridge installed at the factory. Read all the revie...
