| Recommendatios? What sort of acoustic panels are you using? | |
| Vintage Marantz in Geico Commercial Ironic that they are dumping the kit. | |
| Designing new room Thamls @folkfreak The ASC info is appreciated. The Quads play in a corner for near-field listening. I'm not really looking for loud in the new space but hope the Quads will breath and image better in a larger room. | |
| Worth it to try a SUT with a 103R and Herron VTPH-2? There's a review by one of the Stereophile writers (Dudley) comparing Bob's Devices 1131 SUT to FET amplifiers and the preference was for the transformer. | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Glanz - nice open sound, free and loose of damping which give it a dynamic quality. Initially, it almost sounds better than the MC...Palladian - nice open sound, I can feel that there is more control over the music. Bass is tighter and more deline... | |

| Your Forever Pieces? What and Why? Thanks @bdp24 .I also use a Garrott Export with a side screw metal bracket. It sounds very good. | |

| Best upgrades for Sony PSHX500? Leave it and enjoy. It’s a good starter table. If you want to start off on the upgrade route, start saving for the next tier. Make sure it is on a stable platform. Try adding a slab of granite under it etc. | |
