Fact: US MSRP is $8995Fact: EU MSRP is $6995This i s a music forum in the end so I'll put it simpl... | |
| How much will you pay for an exotic cartridge.... I am thinking about a cartridge upgrade and recently began investigating Lyra Etna Lambda.

| EAT C-Sharp Turntable anyone owned or demoed it?? I have the EAT C sharp and am certainly happy. I wouldn’t recommend worrying about the cover. I had one custom made by a guy in upstate NY, JMK displays for a bit under $100 and it’s perfect. | |
| Proceed AVP differences Might be an AVP2 or AVP2+6. They also made a video control card back in the day. I’d recommend comparing the inputs on the back of the unit. | |

| Best integrated from this list... Moon ACE | |
| Looking for opinions. The Moon ACE is rated very highly by everyone who's reviewed it. Check out What Hi FI? Digital Audio Review and Soundstage to name a few. It's an amazing piece of engineering and solidly built. | |
| Strange classified responses Some other fun ones: "will the Moon ACE drive my speakers", "Is the product eligible for an upgrade program", "will the manufacturer warranty the product", "How old is the unit". Simaudio just started making the ACE last year! It's not an old L... | |
