Coming up, sir - we only have Grolsch, though; will that do? :cool: ;)

That's exactly what I did!
All of my pure silver cables are either in the 'digital' cd/pre/power pathway or in the drawer. They seem to work on that side of things.
EXCEPT my tonearm lead which replaced SME Series V one and is better than the stock Technics EPA-100.
So for vinyl. it is silver at the front then Cardas Crosslink then Chord Cobra.
I'll snag some of J7's mixed cable when the EPA shuffles up there for a rewire.

I wouldn't go that far with respect to rubber band decks, there are, for example The Ravens, The Scheus, The SMEs and other massive decks that use a rubber band. The have a devoted following.
I know, now, how good the Teccie is, but I would have sneared at it, even 2 years ago. I also know I've never really got on with wobble decks. There's two decks that interest me outside the DD stable. The Raven 1 and the SME 10. That other range of german decks that Dave carries might be good too.
Am I alone in rating the NAS turntables? They all sound great and the Dias is so close to master tape, as was the Mentor/Decca Microscanner I once owned.
By the way, I owned an SL110 first time round. It has great styling to my eyes and although not quartz locked, it's still stable with no hunting under moderate load (unlike the dire SL2000, which was a cheapo Technics disaster). The thing that killed it for me was the incredibly "live" plinth and terminal acoustic feedback of the standard article. Same goes for the SL120 mk1, but not the SL150 for some reason.
I can strongly recommend Homegrown Audio for all the items needed to make excellent inexpensive silver cables (yes, I use a set of SC-3 between phono amp and preamp).

Hey... That's a new one for me, thanks! :)
Seconded.Quote:

The interconnects and speaker cables made a significant difference when i tried them in my system. Very open and spacious sounding.
Not the cheapest by my standards, but well worth the layout. Must get round to ordering some.
Incidentally Hificollective sell some of their wire in the UK.
Seriously worth trying Mike.
LOL - why thank you!
I'm a secret 'wobbler' fan, deep down, of course ;)
Marco.
P.S I didn't know you were an SP-100 fan.
