JfiveeightYou might look into Pete Riggles VTA. A very cheap upgrade for the Rega. Stick with the Denon.

Why not horns?
Electrostatics is so much harder to say then "horns".

Shubertmaniac I love it. Please Please post your system on the Virtual Systems. Make yourself proud and make the rest of us feel like crap.
