What a pile of Schiit
Really did not intend for this thread to go down the Schi----.  Oops, used that once too many already.  Yes, sometimes I get frustrated when people do not do their jobs and it results in things that are ridiculously illogical and wrong.  I deal w... 
What a pile of Schiit
@sandstone   @stereo5    When I said cost in not the issue that was in reference to the $50 upcharge incurred because their website does not function properly--not an unlimited budget for a piece of gear.   The Schiit brand appeal is the high pe... 
What a pile of Schiit
Right, I know you can order it but at increased cost and the drop down does not allow the option of self installation/returnability.  Not an issue with the other amps. So just with this amp you have to pay more for the same card and give up your r... 
Try a sub a third in the back
@pennpencil   Don't let the naysayers detract from what you hear pennpencil.  That's the only thing that matters.  Glad that the third sub has worked out so well for you.  
Mark Audio 12P Full Range...An Amp question
NO.  Better to have too much power than too little (clipped) power. Please understand that the Mark Audio speakers are not designed to handle lots of power and per the manufacturer require a slow and calculated break in.  It's all a function of ho...

My Elkit TU-8600S build review and questions
Rob, if I am not mistaken, I recall a review of this amp and what a superb job it did with headphones.  So I wouldn't disable or bypass it.  Give it a try as is and then decide.  You can always modify it later. It can be a blessing and curse buil... 
Sale on Marantz PM Ki Ruby Integrated!
One thing I can promise you is this-- you will not be disappointed with the build quality. In fact, you will be more impressed.  The moment you pick it up you'll know what I mean.  This player is over 30#.  More importantly, it sounds better than ...

Is it improper thread etiquette to post "what's on your turntable this morning"? John Williams complete works of Bach for Lute.  Guitar and coffee are always a good way to begin the day.

@jbhiller   Glad you are pleased with your purchase.  I smiled as I read your preliminary remarks.  It very much parallels my experience and it should continue to impress. My intro to Marantz intergrated's began around 10 yrs ago.  I was driving ...

@sbank  You inspired me to pull out my Trick of the Tail LP.  Dare I say it sounds better than the CD? Dang that is a great album.  In retrospect, I can't ever recall my parents asking me to "turn it down."  Remarkable.  As I recall it sounded p...

PS-that is high praise for the phono section.  I am embarrassed to say I have never used it!  (I do all my LP listening via a headphone based system)  Will have to give it a try.   I do have the Ruby CD player as well and no surprise to two piece...

 I had the very same PL unit as you.  One nice thing is that you can leave the Marantz on 24/7 and being class D it barely gets warm--but might speed up things settling in.

@tomic601   Thanks for the kind comment.  I am fortunate to have four systems in my home.  My LP system is a headphone based rig.  Somewhat modest but satisfying none the less when my wife is asleep.  It's a bit of a rush to listen to the LP's of ...
