Description

I like the way it sounds. Knowing this hobby I will want to change something soon but will resist. I stay up all hours of the night listening. This is a good thing but it's not helping my love life.

Elegant room arrangement and intelligent gear selection, very cool.

Did you send your pre amp back to John for the phono board? Which version did you go with, the 36dB (2 tube) or the 44dB (4 tube) gain? With the Shure V15 I would guess the 36dB would work well. Was there a noticable improvement from your previous phonostage? What else did you have done while he was in there? I see you have the outboard power supply as well, tremendous!
