Desktop ESLs
@paulfolbrecht not sure if these meet your criteria, might be too big: https://www.quad-musik.de/index.php/en/products/electrostatics I can vouch for the manufacturer as I purchased the ESL57 QA speakers from them. Peter Walker sold Manfred Stei... 
CLASS D MONO AMPS buy ATMASPHERE MUSIC SYSTEMS
My personal experience is the amp sounds right as soon as its turned on. This has been my experience as well.  
Any GaN amp good with Acoustats?
I also have a TNT-200, but the direct drive servo amps are what I use on my Model 2 speakers. While Roy Esposito in FL could refurbish a set, these guys in the Netherlands offer a modified version of the original, as well as their own model: https... 
DIY TT
@holmz, I have a DP-3000 (no quartz lock) in a custom plinth so what you are asking can be done. You just need to spec the size of the plinth such that it can support two tonearms. You might also want to think about using arm boards that can be sw... 
Are Music Reference amps still available new?
Well today was an eventful one as we hit a pretty huge milestone in the development of the RM-10 MkIII. Yep the third iteration of my favorite amp design of Roger's. We're getting very close to completing the prototype and then on to testing. Hope...

Distributed Bass Array configuration
@brunomarcs which model Morel drivers did you get?  
Where should the vocal image be?
+1 for Chesky Jazz Audiophile Vol 2. #47 The entire Opus series of test recordings is also a great resource.  
A new way of adjusting anti skate!
@mijostyn what VTF gauge are you using?  
Brian Eno's Turntable Design
@bdp24, not sure what Dylan thought, doesn't matter either. Both artists inspired many others. There is an old quote that made the rounds among several music folks: "The Velvet Underground didn’t sell many records, but everyone who bought one went... 
Brian Eno's Turntable Design
Just one person's opinion, although Art Dudley agreed with me about Reed, Art putting quotation marks around the word singer when speaking of Lou. A terr-i-ble "singer", and a mediocre songwriter. Art Dudley agreeing with you. Well I guess that...
