| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw The Abbey Road MFSL was a bust. It was listed as NM, but played like VG, lots of surface noise. It's on its way back to the seller for a refund. | |

| Klipsch speaker choices MrD, I meant to say Legend series, not Heritage. My bad.I did say the Heritage line has better constructed cabinets. The panels on my KLF-30s were loose and rattled at high volumes. I used some Titebond III to seal them up. I recently put some Dyn... | |

| Integrated Amp for small space for VA speakers Why not give the Yamaha a try first? It has a volume control doesn't it? You don't have to turn it to 11. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @tomic601 I think I'm going to keep using the Nova for the SL 1200. Now that I have some headshells to play with, I have one with a MM, one with a LOMC, and one with a HOMC. The Nova has more gain settings than the Chinook and they are much easi... | |
