My Experience With Tekton
You must have missed the post above. 600 pairs sold in the last year.  Try to find them used. And that is just for Moab. Not even their biggest seller. So you do the math on the risk. Unless you are frequently unsatisfied with really, really good ... 
My Experience With Tekton
A guy on the Tekton Owner's Group just got his SECOND pair of Moabs today. Custom color. His are S/N 1394. Mine are 194. What that means, in one year, 1,200 Moabs. 600 pair. In one year. How many of those come up for sale used? Not many! Remarkabl... 
What DECADE in the last 80 years had the BEST
What he said.    But really, you know all seriousness has gone out the window when they start off talking about Japanese electronics.  https://youtu.be/RmLAA2r4DlA?t=70 
The first system you had that was "high end/audiophile", by you standards
When Walkman’s came out I thought that was high end - I was blown away by their sound. ROTFLMAO believe it or not but one of the biggest boobs, er I mean respected, er I mean prolific posters on the site would have you believe his Walkman was the... 
Cable Goop Review George is going to freak!!
Making even less sense now than usual.  
Help wanted spending money and improving my system.
Even something like a Bottlehead will be an improvement. If you want to do the phono stage. A lot of other good ideas here. Synergistic HFT, Purple fuse, Townshend Pods and/or Podiums. I am generally in line with Frank, better to get the most from... 
Putting an end to the audio cable debate! Part 1
I first learned about the loony theory of cables making a difference back in 1990. Back then we didn't know about identity math, we just took one number and subtracted from another to get the difference. I mention this in case some of you more mod...

lol! So Podiums now, Decware ordered now for later? Podiums, seriously, transformative!

Yeah, Podiums are transformative. Maybe he will get a set while waiting on the Decware? ;) 
Speaker Recommendation up to 70k
which I can't discloseAnd yet people kept reading.

Just so you know it will take a while. All the really good stuff is backlogged, the last one here oldhvymec waited several months for his. For something this good, what could well prove to be a lifetime buy, probably worth the wait. Study everythi...

Agree. Totally. Your 2M Bronze is high output 5mV making the Decware ZP3 a solid choice for transforming your system for not a lot of money. With a lifetime warranty and their SUT trade program should you go MC down the road this is the rare compo...

It is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it may be the end of the beginning.    Sorry. Couldn't resist. 
Reel to reel , is it real the hype!
Not hype. Reality. I had open reel back in the 70's and 80's. Dumbest thing I ever did in audio was sell the RT. Back then I would dub my records to tape and do almost all my listening off tape. Playing records was a special occasion. Although hon... 
Turntable versus tonearm versus cartridge: which is MOST important?
A state of the art $10K cartridge on a $500 table/arm or a good $500 cartridge on a $10K table/arm? Now that I think about it, I actually have everything here to make almost this exact comparison: Origin Live Sovereign turntable with Origin Live...
