I not sure what you mean by extreme Vertigo , but the cartridge I liked best was a Lyra Helikon on a Simon Yorke table . I had a bunch of different phono stages , I think the ARC 3SE was the best match . Not state of the art but not bad , this set... 
Revel Salon2 vs Wilson Sasha
I found the Sasha's very capable but a tad bright and slightly constricked in both the systems I heard them in , for my tastes . The right power and lots of it might make them shine . The Salon's seemed more natural and relaxed in comparison . Alt... 
Best CD player under $25000.
Less should be better , the least corrupted , but it doesn't seem to go that way with audio . 
Most expensive Audio disapoinment?
Iv'e been careful with equipment purchases , so far no disappointments . 
Do Interconnects need to "warm up"?
Rpg ... Iv'e found the same thing with My Levinson/ Ayre setup . It seems even if equipment is left on , it takes a couple of hours at the very least for things to settle in before the swing and flow return . I like Wolfs analogy . 
Good turntable needed, need recomendations.
Programmergeek I agree , I just don't think either format is superior in every way . I have also heard moderately inexpensive vinyl rigs that out classed more pricy digital rigs , but I have also heard the reverse , I no the turntable wasn't set u... 
Best CD player under $25000.
Iv'e seen a few people using tube buffers with CD sources with good results . Is there any loss of detail this way ? Iv'e been using an Ayre CD5MP as a transport , into a Levivson #360S DAC , I think it gives me a similar effect . The right about ...

Hello Vertigo .. I was speaking from a pure sonic prospective . I guess we all have different sonic perimeters that we value . I value a natural , neutral tonal balance with the just the right amount of musicality and superior bass performance , I...

Since vinylphiles continually cruise the digital site with there one sided opinions telling all that analog is so much better , I thought I would come over here and tell everyone how inferior analog is . I trashed my vinyl years ago and have been ...

Gs ... Thats A good one . But I still prefer digital in even at equal money , most times . How come vinylphiles cruise the digital section , just to wine . I think I'll go to the vinyl site now and tell them how much better digital sounds .

Vertigo... As far as sources go I've owed and heard many of both digital and analog and think I'm safe in saying neither one is superior in every way . Many audiophile friends have systems that are a whisker bright so analog seems to be the way to...

I don't whats vexing about it , we new from the first audio component we purchased many years ago that it would not sound like live music and to this day we no that a new piece of kit , no matter how great will leave something behind .What we can ...

I think building a system with good neutraility will get you close to what you are looking for . I've built a system that sounds very involving night or day , hot or cold , Jazz or rock/pop , good recordings or bad . I won't say it makes a poorly ... 
Benchmark VS Mark levinson 36 DAC ?????????
I agree with { Knghifi } , I was not a all impressed with the Benchmark in stock form , it was not even close to my Levinson #360 DAC . The slightly newer #360 does except 24/96 . 
Good CD for testing bass response
If your into Rock music try just about any disc by Janet Jackson , most of her music is mastered bass heavy , she's one of the few artists that I turn my sub on for . The more bass your system can produce the better this stuff sounds .
