Lovely

I would not run the Quad 11's where they are due to heat build up , can you move them to a open location ?

Hi Al,

There is plenty of space around them the picture is a bit deceiving.

Thanks Grant, my modified TD160 Super with the Philips ceramic cartridge left a big impression on Marco and Martin at the MiBO.

A pair of restored 1978 JBL L40's with the Quad's they sound like they were made for them.

It is a fantastic sounding deck, arm and cartridge combination. Not an easy thing to get absolutely right but you have managed to do it.
