CVT coupler on MIT cables...problem solved!   
New Krell K-300i Class A iBias Integrated Changes!
Actually I have the Vanguard, which replaced some Cx era stuff and I love it!  I’m simply questioning exactly what is going on with the new 300i. 
Sony SCD-XA5400ES-Best SACD for under $10,000
Not an issue with the units I’ve owned, but I did find a replacement spinner that has made me very happy since!  I purchased a Yamaha CD-S2100 and have found it to be exceptional and reliable.  It does have a quite robust transport mechanism which...

why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
Yes, I have tried sooo very many cables over the years that were supposed to be better...MIT always wound up coming back!  It’s all relative so enjoy 😉

Looked up Clarity Cable...hmmm.  Ma and Pa Kettle use Golden Ears.  Nice!  Love the lack of detail as well.  Little weird actually, kinda creepy in a way.  No NASA mentioned, but that wouldn’t necessarily equate with good sound anyway.  Makes Sign...
