@mulveling I am doing it all it all except the TT and Tonearm. The Bob's; the E-GLO and a cartridge. May I ask one last question? Within a $500 range: what cartridge would fit in nicely with those and my 11.1? And so I understand you - why MM or ...

You guys give me a lot to think about. All good information. That is what I was hoping for. Then using my analytical skills (IT pro) to single out the most logical. I did not mention my DAC. Although the musical reproduction is sad compared to th...
