HELP PICKING NEW TURNTABLE
If this is something you plan to keep for years to come then spend the extra few hundred dollars and get the VPI Traveler or the Sota Comet. They are both worlds better than the Rega or Music Hall models you are considering buying. Better made and... 
Vip Traveler verses Rega p6 - Photo Finish?
I heard both at a store. I'd pick the VPI Traveler. It seemed better built, and sounded better to my ears. The Rega, in fact the Rega sound, always comes across as thin and sometimes bright to me. You might be able to give the pratt nod to the Reg...

Check out online some reviews by U.K. Magazines, Hi-Fi World, Hi-Fi Choice, and What Hi-Fi. I have read all 3 reviews and all were positive.

@ mynameisnonamePerhaps they use the insulation because it works well for resonance? I can tell you are not happy with the build of your pair. That's too bad. But how did you like the sound? 
What are the differences in Tweeter materials?
@Timlub,Thanks for your post. My favorite soft domes have been from Dynaudio, Morel, and ScanSpeak. I find a lot of todays Seas soft dome tweeters to sound a bit on the bright side. I was not happy when Spendor switched from ScanSpeak to Seas for ...

What are the differences in Tweeter materials?
I keep wondering what is a Textile dome tweeter? What is it made of? How does it differ from cloth domes, poly domes, and synthetic silk domes? My first speakers were a pair of the original Paradigm 7se's. They used a textile dome tweeter. I alway... 
What are the differences in Tweeter materials?
@ Chayro,I don't think I have come across one metal dome tweeter that I really liked, no matter how well the designer manipulated it to try and give it a smooth sound. Some companies such as Vandersteen seem to do a pretty good job of implementing...

Kijanki, ,That was very interesting. Thanks for the post. I would have thought the value for titanium would have been higher than aluminum. Do you have any info on soft domes? I am wondering what the difference in materials between soft domes and ...

Thanks Igorb, Team212, and Gopher.@Igorb, I am a little worried if Redgum amps can sound bright, especially in the upper midrange and lower treble area? My ears are pretty sensitive to this. I am surprised you said the Redgum sounds bright with ZU... 
Redgum Audio
@ Team212Which Redgum integrated amps did you hear? What speakers were used? Why do you say they are nothing special? What did you personally not like so much about them sound wise? So far, from all the reviews and what the two others on here have...

Thanks for your responses. If you were to compare the Redgum sound to other solid state integrated amps such as the Creek, Arcam, Marantz, Rega ect., or others, what would be the differences? Would you ever characterize the sound as bright?@Gopher...
