Sound proofing floor
Thank you Psacanli, you know you make a good point the vinyl should do a good job of slowing down the outgassing! I was also concerned about the vinyl itself, I remember in my research of outgassing that foam was one of the greater culprits and th... 
K&K any comments?
I am starting to think that this is a phono stage I can live with. Doe sit lack in any way? What would it take to beat the K&K and how would it be better? Also I leave mine on all the time is that ok?

In addition to what I just posted: Something I was considering was cotton batting to avoid the outgassing issue.

Psacanli,Thank you!One other concern of mines(I know, it never ends) is the outgassing from the foam. I am not a health nut, actually a quite balanced health oriented individual. The outgassing is an important concern though, and in the winter whe... 
Difference between today and yesterday.
Gbmcleod,I agree with what you said and would like to add something.My all time favorite listening experience was with the mbl's. Before I get darts thrown at me let me just say that whatever was playing I got into it. I found myself enjoying rap ...

Denon 103r ????
Mingles, Glad to see you're happy!As I am too, I can't believe how good this cartridge is, I REALLY think I done.Except for line conditioner I will not be buying anything for a long long long long long time. Well maybe one other thing the 103r by Zu. 
WOW factor
Tom Hankins,Just out of curiousity did you get your source right?I found that not until I got my source right was when I started to realize the potential of my speakers!Just IMHO! 
Denon 103r ????
Since I just received the K&K and am still tweeking the denon 103r I am only saying with limited time, that the K&K sounds sweeter, projects the music forward a bit in between the speakers, but also has excellent soundstage I am hearing th... 
Got A Turntable...What Next?
Just my 2 cents, I would focus on the source first before anything else. Of course if the amp is weak than that should be taken care of, other than that, one will never know what the system is capable of until the source is optimized. From my expe... 
Stereo Sound cart rankings
On my system starting to realize 103r is amazing. 
Phono Amp or Pre Amp with phono stage upgrade?
Just my humble opinion I like the idea of having separates, you can keep a preamp that works well with your system and then compare phono stages to find the right match. Or vice-a-versa. Then again if you're the type that doesn't one to compare or... 
Hardwood floors Sound treatments
