Is vinyl still a "perfect" source?
Elizabeth, you're right now. Here's a good example. I'm between amps right now so can't play anything (I don't have a CDP). However, I was looking forward to a quiet evening in the basement with some good beer, the radio and cleaning a bunch of re... 
The Cost of Cables
Here's some other conversation too on the subject:Expensive Cables 
MC Phono Stage w/ Attenuator??

John; Agreed.In fact, I just sold my integrated in order to buy some mono-blocs.;^) 
What sounds best integrated or separates?
John, I take your point. However, separates don't HAVE to have a larger power supply do they?? 
MC Phono Stage w/ Attenuator??
Tvad. I guess I'm not sure what I mean. I'm looking to run a phono stage directly to my amp. I need to control the loudness. Is that variable gain??Thanx for the suggestion. I've seen the Wright Sound and it looks appealing.

David Sedaris...does he have a show on NPR or PRI?? The name sounds familiar.

Synthfreek; just relax a bit. You're taking this too seriously. I've nerver heard of those authors you mention and believe it or not, I just finished a Grisham novel this weekend. Take care.

Synthfreek; it's called hyperbole. Maybe you should read a book once in awhile instead of just listening to crappy music.

Synthfreek. How absurd to think that this thread is composed by people who are more into gadgets than music. I'd be interested to know how you came to that conclusion. 
What sounds best integrated or separates?
Marankanetz; I disagree.Assuming material, design integrity, etc. Are consistent between the two. Integrated will always sound better. Think about it...no extra cables...short signal path, etc...

"What an ignorant statement. You're discounting 25 years of music composition"No I'm not. I accounted for it and am of the opinion that it sucks.

Nothing good has happened in music since 1979.
