Conrad Johnson--Best used Model
Hey not what you specifically asked but when I had that amp in my system it really sang with a Lamm LL2.1 Deluxe and prior LL2 Deluxe, this pairing was the best I heard the XA30.5, if the amp wasn't 80 pounds and bulky I would still own it and kin... 
Needing to replace a pair of VTL MB125s with another like flavored amp
rhljazz No real budget, I will be looking slightly used or new and once chosen will shop and wait for good deal. Are your suggestions based on them being EL34 amps and have you heard or lived with any of them, have you any experience with the VTLs? 
Priorities...
As a general answer to a general question and assuming you have all three tagged for an upgrade I would upgrade the preamp first and the amp situation after you have chosen the speakers you are going with. The preamp is I believe the week link in ... 
What is more accurate: magnetic anti-skating, or barrel weight attached a fishline?
Sunnyjim, please add a third option of no antiskate, hence VPI  and the dressing of their wires. Interested in that result as well. Thanks

Why so many headphones for sale with less than 10 hours of listening time?
Sense62, to address the issue of comfort on the Audeze, I have really enjoyed mine quite a bit over the few months that I have owned them and have used them hours on end with no issues with comfort, I use them with a Yamamoto H-2 tubed headphone a...

Ohlala, I thought that's what you meant but just wanted to clarify. The Yvettes look really interesting and am imagining they are in the 20,000.00 dollar range if they are the replacement for the Sophias. Have you heard the Sabrinas yet, and if yo...

The Sabrina is in its Mk IV iteration? If you meant the Sophia it is a different animal than the Sabrina, so don't quite understand the comment. When is the release of the Yvette supposed to happen?

Vintage Dual 1228 Turntable : worth to upgrade cartridge ?
I would say abandon the Dual or sell and start fresh, the Dual was ok back then but your 1200.00 could be spent much wiser, look in the used market and get as much table as you can maybe a Project with their 9 arm with cart and match to a phone st...
