Room Correction, Acoustic Treatment, Positioning, etc. What are my options
Got the MEN220 setup. I think I still need to tweak it a bit, but I’m amazed at the improvement in sound stage. It’s rare you just have a bypass button that lets you hear what sound stage is. It also improved the bass but it’s still going to need ...

Here are the waters for full range and just basshttps://www.dropbox.com/s/xvgl22gjo4voxj5/REW%20Waterfall%20Full%20Spectrum.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/qa4u37i4r1hrdy7/Rew%20Waterfall.jpg?dl=0

@mikexxyz @brownsfan you are correct! I am using a UMIK-1 but it looks like it wasn’t calibrated the first time around. I reinstalled the app and initialized the mic again with the calibration from from MiniDSP. The graph looks much better, though...

@gdnrbob thanks for that amazing advice. I’ll sell my B&Ws today.

FWIW I added a sub just to see what would happen and it didn’t do much except get boomy without sound more full. @handymann I check led acousticfields and will watch the videos but the products are just insanely overpriced. $4k+ for a single diffu...

Within reason I’ve moved the speakers around. That was the best runs of REW and the best sound. It still sounds excellent, overall, but the bass it a bit weak.  
VPI Prime or Scout or ???
For those following along, I do appreciate all the feedback in this thread. I think the advice that I most took to heart was finding a local shop. I did just that. There is an amazing shop very close to me with selection of turntables, speakers, a... 
Mytek Brooklyn vs manhattan
Left filters on default. Using MQA limits it I think.  
Ps Audio BHK preamp Vs ARC best preamps
Has anyone compared them to something like the McIntosh C2600? 
VPI Prime or Scout or ???
Will it really sound that much better than a similarly priced Rega? 
Mytek Brooklyn vs manhattan
I own both including a linear power supply for the Brooklyn DAC+. The Manhattan II is just much smoother while also sounding more full. The Brooklyn has a crispness about it. It’s really great. I’ve compared it to numerous other Dacs and it’s defi...

@gochurchgo the 1200GR, to me, is not particularly attractive table. The SL-1200G is a little better, but still not as good looking as the VPI. 
VPI Prime or Scout or ???
To be honest, after watching numerous youtube videos on setup, and reading more reviews, I'm leaning towards just getting a Rega (RP8, RP10, or similar) 
Ps Audio BHK preamp Vs ARC best preamps
I’m also considering between these. A PS Audio BHK vs the Audio Research 5SE. Can any provide insights here? Looking to add some tube warmth to my setup with a McIntosh MC452 amp.
