@audphile1 A DAC like Bricasti M3 is perfectly capable of rendering finer performance and nuances embedded in a recording. @singingg owns a Benchmark DAC3B….need I say more 😉

@fastfreight Thanks again for your feedback on S1. I am not surprised by your findings given Marcin’s background in computer audio and the time he took to design S1 from ground up. Some of us are living vicariously through your wonderful experie...

Update: Reed 3P tonearm ordered. I am grateful to @fsonicsmith and @gestalt for their invaluable feedback and consultation. The arm is likely to be paired with Miyabi Labs Fuuga MC cart and Konus Audio’s Vinyle 3000MC phono.
