I have a new Alfa Romeo Giulia with the upgraded 14 speaker Harmon Kardon system and it sounds great. My previous Alfa had the same but the bass used to vibrate. That’s fixed in the new one. It’s not like listening to my home system but pretty dar... 
Step up transformer recommendation
I have a Slagle 1:5 SUT that I have been using successfully for a similar set up. I’m thinking about going to a different system so I may be selling it.  
looking for separate tube phono stage for use with VAC Avatar SE integrated amp
Thanks! - Nice set up you have there. I've tried a few phono stages plugged into the preamp input but I always preferred the VAC phono stage in the integrated amp. I'll have to keep trying different ones until I find the right one. Thanks again!

Worst Concerts You Have Attended ??
World series of rock n roll Cleveland stadium 75’. The Rolling Stones with Billy Preston and still had Mick Taylor. J Giles opened, both were great. I was like 14 or 15.Hundreds since then.  
To those running Klipsch Forte IIIs...
As a follow up to previous message, I did experiment with speaker placement - more like I adjusted my seating area to be 8-10 feet away, and I turned them a little inward based on some suggestions I saw. And I have them about a foot from the back ...

Hi Gunners01if it was Chris at Woodsong I’m betting he recommended the Modwright PH 9.0 phono amp. I got one on his recommendation and it’s awesome, but I’m having some integration issues with my current Croft Series 7 power amp
