The Who (Deluxe)
I @uberwaltz, I agree especially since it is Daltrys band. I do not like the badmouthing Townsend said about their 2 deceased band members. He said Keith Moon always played at the wrong tempo, and that Entwistle couldn’t keep time to the music. Tr... 
Best sounding universal player (CD, DVD-A, SACD)
I have found the Esoteric branded Acrolink to be the best cables for my Esoteric UX-3. I use an Acrolink power cord, interconnect and digital cable.  It was my first holy cow moment when I inserted their interconnects into the system.  
New upper trim level Corvette or seven year old used amps?

How good is the Micro Seiki DDX-1000 Direct Drive turntable ?
I drooled over that table in the 70’s.  I wanted one with 3 arms. Then reality sank in and I realized since I was recently married, that table was best left to fantasy.  
The Who (Deluxe)

New upper trim level Corvette or seven year old used amps?
When I retired in 2017, I had my eye on a used Vette that had extremely low miles.  I wanted it so bad but remembered the last sports car I owned and how many tickets I got while driving it.  It was also a magnet for the Police.  My insurance went...

@chakster ...........I bought the cartridge from Audiofeil ( sold via Audiogon) and was assured it was a good match for the VPI Scout that I bought it for. It was still pretty much brand new when I had it mounted on the Technics. In 2020, I plan t...
