    When switching to Benz everything seems to be more polite, slower pace , you don’t sit on the edge of the chair anymore , but it’s just an illusion , it kicks when is needed and the best think about is the way it presents voices ,I think stereophony is on higher level as well .Benz is a story teller while Zyx seems to be a showman.Not much difference soundwise between Wood SL an Ace SL , all above IMO obviously.
    That's really interesting. Looks like I'm going to have to try and loan a Benz Ace or similar. I'd find it difficult bro live without the pure atmosphere the ZYX is capable of. So anything that comes after it will have to be superb.

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    A little above budget, I could sell the NOS Denon 103Pro I have here for £400 if that is of interest. Otherwise it is going on ebay tonight.

    I have tried that but my Chromecast Audio into a Chord 2Qute sounds better.

    Im not selling but I had an Ittock on a Rock once and a cartridge that was great with it was an AT32. So I suspect the Audio Technica AT33PTG would be a good match. Its a good cart anyway and not hard to find.

    The OC9 Mk2 would do you.
