| Speakers with closest sound of Tannoy KensingtonGR Gondo, My room size is about 10' x 11' and crazy 20' ceiling. The room treatments killed the echo. Check my video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZs1ASzQ-aQ The Tannoy Kensington GR fits perfectly with out any problem. Hope this helps. | |
| Dynavector XX-2 MK2 vs Shelter 901 MK2 Yes I did. Mike is an awesome dude. He is the one who assisted me on this. He said everything checked out so he replaced my cartridge. | |

| Dynavector XX-2 MK2 vs Shelter 901 MK2 Hey John_tracy,I forgot to mention I'm using a clarify tonearm. Using Mcintosh C48 MC phono stage. I'm not sure what you mean by pristine electronics. To some, Bose is pristine lol | |

| Move to tubes: Ayon Crossfire or Triton, various I'm using Manley 250 with the XLR input. Plenty of power for my 93db Tannoy. This is my second Manley gear. Sweet midrange magic in triode mode plus they have excellent customer service. Perhaps consider Manley Labs? | |

| Is this level of "needle talk" normal? There's nothing to worry. You're cartridge is operating normally. | |
| Why do no audio enthusiasts use McIntosh? If this is true then Mcintosh wouldn't be in business. Their MSRP obviously only get support from audio enthusiasts. Just like a gun enthusiast that is willing to pay for 5k custom race gun. Non enthusias will be happy with a $400 Taurus revolver. | |
| What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker? A really good HIFI speakers should be able to play well with all types of genre you throw at it otherwise those speakers won't be considered HIFI. | |
