Wonder product?
It sounds like you could be having a good conversation with Shannon Parks, the owner. Just email him and he will contact you for certain. One of the better audio dealer anywhere. Actually there are only a handful of adjustments I usually make on t... 
Wonder product?
The Puffin is great mainly for poorly recorded albums and mono records if you don't have a mono cartridge. I use it on my secondary TT. It is a fantastic equalizer. The owner is also outstanding and fixed an issue on a 5 year old unit at zero cost... 
Does Every Track Sound Great on Your System?
Ditto, I also said all I have to say because unlike some, I don't like to bad mouth other folks' equipment over mine. Over and out.

@tlcocks  I really appreciate all the info you have provided and am happy you are so pleased with this in your system. Looking at their website, it is undeniable that the advantages of this unit are multiple over others. But, as quoted in their w... 
Does Every Track Sound Great on Your System?
@wsrrsw  You made my point real well. No remote on a EQ unit is worthless in my listening room setup. Since the ones who are  pushing the Charter Oak don't post their systems, I imagine they must be sitting at a desk by their EQ unit doing their ...

Agreed, in worst case scenarios, I use my Schiit loki max and it does a great job on poorly recorded albums.  
Anyone listen to entire albums?
I'm retired, so absolutey. Listening to the entire album, or entire side in case of vinyl is the best way to get the message of the artist on a particular album. At least that applies to all artists worthy of that word. However nowadays many pop a... 
Does Every Track Sound Great on Your System?

Audiogon Seller Communication
That 's not only on audiogon, it can happen anywhere as mentioned by others here. Even respectable audio companies. It happened to me. The real red flag to me, is as soon as you post your experience, the seller holds a long conversation with you. ... 
How you know your system is improving?
@bluethinker  This has all the signs of someone jumping in the deep end of the pool before they learned how to swim. If I were you, the main thing I would force myself to do going forward is changing only one item in your system at a time. That w... 
Great network streamers with only USB outputs
