    Thank you! It sounds great. I had a matching Pioneer SG-9500 but recently sold it. A friend of mine custom made wood cabinets for the two. Here are some close up pics.

    A proper “Man Cave”, if I’ve ever seen one! You’ve made the best of your space, very nice.

    Yup... Nice man cave! For a younger man, clearly. I smiled when I saw the MTB park sign and the helmets -- avid rider here too, but not DH like you....strictly XC for me. Good on ya! Nice audio system too, by the way . How's the TT sounding? Still liking the Bronze?

    Cheers,

    Stunning space, and gear! How can you keep it so tidy? No one else enters the room besides you?

    The Bronze keeps getting better and better each LP I play!

    I think it was the pre amp section that held it back, it just didn't seem to want to let the music flow,it was quite frustrating really,great build and powerful. I used it for a time with one of Stan's dacs as pre with much better results.

    Hopefully that is not the case with the PM8006. It has an upgraded internal phono pre amp that is supposed to sound great. I will update you with how it sounds once I install it wednesday!
