Herron VTPH-2
Nice, but as I have gotten more time and experience with it and have listened to multiple tracks I know very well, the treble is a bit recessed or rolled off. For example guitars lines are more faint than the should be. That is not a compromise I ... 
Herron VTPH-2
Yeah, Keith is great. I love the VTSP 3A and I think the cosmetics are good too. I know this thread is more about the Phono, but in case lurkers are looking for more info about Herron, there is a pretty big thread on the Herron preamps too. 
WLM Diva Monitor -- Personal Experience?
I have paired Cayin with the WLM's and I thought the match was wonderful. Do you have the Cayin A-88t integrated? I took out the 88s and put some Tung Sol 6550s in the amp. Sold the Cayin a few months ago, but it was indeed a good match with the W... 
Best tube pre-amp below US $ 10.000,00 ?
Depends on the system and how it matches and interacts with your other components. So with that said, there is a lot to choose from in that price range. I certainly don't have experience of hearing a lot of stuff, but I have heard about 20 or so p...

Glad to hear you have the Piano Cera Argyro. It is great your setup sounds outstanding from the outset. My Piano classic sounded good when I first got it, but not draw dropping good like you would expect from an expensive speaker line. I thought g... 
Tidal Sunray vs Gryphon Trident
Murataltuev, when you say Tidal is a bit bright, are you talking about the electronics or the speakers, or both? I have Tidal speakers (Piano Classic) and I don't find them bright at all. 
Your ONE all time favorite love song?

any early 80's alt/soft punk fans out there?
Found another good one from the era. The band is Cactus World News from Ireland. Check out some of their stuff on You Tube. 
any early 80's alt/soft punk fans out there?
I don't recall seeing Loyld Cole And The Commotions on the list anywhere. IMO, they are an excellent post punk outfit. The plus for audiophiles is the stuff is well recorded. 
Comments on Amphion Speakers, Please
I have plenty of experience with the Amphion Xenons. One of the warmest systems I ever heard was the Xenons paired with some Pathos amps. I heard them sound bright with a Rotel 1080 reciever. I have also heard them with Cayin KT88 but tube rolled ... 
Which cost more: your system or your car?
system. Car just gets me around. System takes me to another place. 
What percentage of audiophiles use a sub ?
Don't forget subs can indirectly help the mids and treble.
