| Weight, Clamp or stabilizer? I don't think most decent turntable bearings care much about a few ounce or a pound weight or clamp on it. I mean a VPI Prime platter weighs 20 lbs and as you know many platters weigh a lot more. I suspect the bearing can handle a weight just fine. | |

| Small Floorstander? I have D7s and I although they are small relative to many floorstanders I don't consider them easily portable and readily shuffled in and out of a listening area. They are 38 inches tall and weigh close to 50 lbs each. | |
| Bang for Buck Agreed @reubent . I think the budget is going to dictate this answer. | |
| Streaming vs. CD streaming services like Qobuz offer three levels of audio quality:- MP3 320 KBPS (compressed like Spotify)- FLAC 16-BIT / 44.1 KHZ (this is CD quality)- FLAC 24-BIT UP TO 192 KHZ (hi-res, better than CD) |
