Later... distortion problem with Pass XP-12. The ML 38s is back in.
Replaced ML no 38s with the Pass XP-12. The 38s is getting very long in the tooth.
The Bryston is now back in. The CAD-120s is a fine amp. I just can't
hear much difference between the two. So I've decided to use the Bryston
since it is much lower maintenance.
Replaced the Bryston Amp with a Cary CAD-120s 60/120 W Tube Amp.
Replaced the bookshelf speakers with the Usher V-604 Towers.
Two Turntables. complete up to the common Levinson 38s preamp.
1. Koetsu RS with an outboard pod using a Micro Seiki MA-505L arm, 10x Transformer, Phono Preamp stage of a Paragon System E. Technics SL-1200G table.
2. Shelter 901 MK III with the stock SL-1200G arm amplified the same as the Koetsu.
3. Grace F9L on a Denon DP-57L, stock arm. Apt Model 2 preamp as the phono pre.
The Usher speakers sound great!.
