VPI Prime or Scout or ???
@gillatgh Good to know. Its been recommended I go with the 1200GR and while I have no doubt its good, and way cheaper, the thought of owning one doesn’t have the same......lustiness as a VPI. But yet I want a fast, dynamic sound. 
New Technics SL1200gr, anyone taken the leap.
@last_lemming  can I ask what music you spin? I am looking at both tables but read that the GR is better for a faster, more dynamic sound with excellent bass extension vs the VPI.What are your thoughts on the tables? 
VPI Prime or Scout or ???
No to threadjack but does anyone here listen to punk and/or metal on a VPI? I was looking at used Scouts or maybe that Prime Scout but it seems like reviews say this not a good table if one is looking for a fast, dynamic sound with excellent bass ... 
Morrow Audio re-design announcement: No more Ag coated Cu; Increased numbers of runs.
My SP4’s arrived the other day. Sound great against the 10awg BJC (Belden I think) cable.i can’t comment on the old formula but these seem to not have the rollercoaster ride my interconnects has during the break in. I absoutely love these.  My Foc...

Help with kef r900 issue
Personally, I'd be the world's biggest d+ck until it was made right by KEF. 
The most fun you can have in audio is DIYing your own speakers
If I had the time I'd like to try it. 
SOTA vs VPI (or stick with my Rega?)
@viridian The Rega has better PRAT than the VPI? I hadn’t heard that before. Very interesting.Can you elaborate more? (Not hating, I am in the market and listen to punk and faster music so PRAT is important to me). 
Schitt turntable anyone?
Making good turntables is HARD. I'll stick with a trusted brand but I do wish the guys luck. I hope its a great business for them. 
LOOKING TO MAKE A TURNTABLE CHANGE, HOPEFULLY AN IMPROVEMENT
@artiros73 inteetewting about the polytable. I’d like to hear more as I’m pondering those tables. 
Anyone hear a Croft Integrated Amp?
@noromance my plan has been the Odyssey Candela but though I haven’t heard it, I’m still pondering the Croft. Not sure how well they will synergize though. 
Next step: preamp or phono preamp
@mesch thanks. Yeah that’s why I went separates so that I could buy individually and (try to) take my time and do it right. Most tables will be a good step up from the PDC but it’s beenrock solid for me. As for the Khartago, it’s fantastic and exc... 
Next step: preamp or phono preamp
@mesch currently running Focal 807v’s. I like them but agree with the Stereophile review where he noted the tweeter can get trashy. If there was a beryllium tweeter upgrade I might pursue that. The speakers I have been saving for last as, after ne... 
Next step: preamp or phono preamp
@mesch thank you. Yes. Other than some (~25%) records having “shouty” upper mids, the sound is good. Already a big step up from the Marantz integrated I’m upgrading from.‘Table wise I’m looking at used VPI Scouts and those will be the most I’ve sp...
