How does sound influence your appreciation?
The world would be a lesser place without Jazz.  
Enough is Enough
1. A dealers job is to attempt to sell you something  2. Ignore dealers

@yyzsantabarbara there are tons of low watt tube amps. The amp I use is an Inspire by Dennis Had. They’re 12 watts a channel.  
Ayon Triton Evo Integrated
@mfisher702 by all means, I’d love to have that Ayon simply for the pure joy of having so much tube power on hand!

I’ve got an Ortofon Blue cartridge that I’ll give you if that would be an upgrade for you.   
An integrated bargain?
@jkf011 I’m with you! $11k??? GULP!

Everyone concerned about heat? It’s wintertime. Let’s PARTY! Congratulations on your acquisition of a piece of stellar gear! Aren’t those OB’s?! Why so do you need so much power? Most OB’s I know only require a small tube amp to drive them.     
New York City Audio/Hifi Bars and Cafes
Audio bars?! It’s NYC! Go out and listen to some live jazz at the Village Vanguard, or the Blue Note. It’s one of the few places in the USA that features live jazz every night. Well, that’s what I’d do. Dress up, and go out!  
Are new Mark Levinson Preamps better than old?
More Primaluna gear. Yes!  
Any regrets in selling gear?
I’ve probably sold more gear than the average person here. But I do miss my Class A A/B Plinius amp. They don’t make them like that anymore.
