Am I Getting Soft Here?
I love this thread. Back to the roots. Bigger/ more expensive isn’t better, better is better. @edcyn Well done!!  
Time-Phase-Alignment- Point Source-Classical Musicians
Not sure if this is applicable or not, I seem to remember Decware making some single point speakers for fair money.    
The character of analog and digital
@millercarbon +1 Happy to see you back. I have missed your input.   
Butcherblock Acoustics "feet" effecting sound and isolation
+1 @townshend-audio  I use their isolation bars for my speakers with amazing results. I plan on getting more isolation from them soon. Simple and it works.    
Record collecting versus hoarding
I still have the first album I purchased in 1972 "Black Sabbath Masters of Reality". I have since expanded my collection to over 3000 albums. It was a slow process. My method has varied over time. First, I like to buy Collections from people.  I t...

@rvpiano  Congratulations on your rig. I love my Feickert Volare as well. Enjoy the music.   
What Gear is Universally Adored?

Turntables

Best vibration isolation for speakers on carpet?
+1 on Townshend bars. They helped my Belle Klipsch speakers come to life. Bass tightened up, highs more precise.   
Phono Preamplifier Redux .. Damn This is Getting Expensive
+1 @urbie Townsend speaker Bars were a game changer for me. Will not resolve your analog woes, but helps define your bass and isolate your speakers from the floor. Can’t say enough about them. Podiums would have been my preference, but I would hav... 
Would There be a Significant Difference
+1 Rhiannon Giddens also maybe explore  Odetta Esme Patterson Little Esther Phillips    
Best Stereo Upgrade Value
Isolation. Do what you can to isolate each component from the other.  In my case it was getting my speakers off the floor.  I use Townsend speaker bars, but there are plenty of other options. Next turntable then amp. It was incredible.   
Need suggestions: High pitched female singers
+1 Bjork  
Low Output MC recommendations?
Might wanna check out Soundsmith. Great re-tipping prices for down the road and out-the-door fairly reasonable for what you get.
