New Sugden mono blocks have arrived.
I"ve had many Sugden products over the years...As of now I am running the Sapphire amp, it's wonderful. Of all the products they make the LA-4 Preamp is the most disappointing, the notion for the thread starter this is required or a great preamp i... 
Solid state amp that tube fan can be happy with?
@rfagon  Considering them myself, going back and forth between them and the Voce. I feel like I will be missing some bass with the Voce, and I refuse to use a sub for infill, they're a pain to deal with in a two channel set up.  I had the Cantab... 
Speaker List narrowed down…
@aj523    What speakers did you end up with? I highly recommend anything Reynaud. I am about to purchase my 3rd set!

WhestTHREE signature phono pre vs. ModWright PH 9.0X
@mmcgill829    what phono did you land on? Hopefully not the Konus...I've had the Vinyle and the Digitale. The Vinyle threw a major unsolvable buzz into my system and the Digitale was harsh sounding. I'd pass on those and focus on the Modwright.

What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V?
@rossb    Which length 4 point did you have? I am going back and forth on the AO or Kuzma 4 point 9 for my new table.   
Radikal Linn LP12 or Palmer 2.5?
@daveyf    This is an old thread, and I fully acknowledge that..But in the event someone stumbles into the opinion above, please do your homework...Sound of anything we discuss here is subjective and individual to the listeners ears. But to say ... 
Kumza Stabi S or Rega P10 ??
@leemark    You arguing with yourself?   
Review: Pure Fidelity Harmony Turntable
@indelibo if you made that decision it mainly based on price because these two turntables are in completely different price classes and they couldn't be more different.   
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble?
    I had the same Konus phono stage in my system, it was noisy and the dealer (Gestalt) had zero idea how to troubleshoot and instead blamed my turn table at the time. The venerable Rega P10...Sounded decent, if you were willing to tolerate the... 
Whatever happened to Aesthetix Pallene Preamp?
It's coming back out this January.   
ELECTROCOMPANIET ECI 6 DX MKII
It is supposed to be VERY good..I would disagree with earlier posts and say this unit is better than the Sim Audio, which is old tech now with their new north series.   
Need new speakers to pair with my Luxman MQ88uc amp
