    Congrats on getting the vinyl to what you want to hear in your system, not an easy job, as I Know all too well, and very easy to spend vast sums for little improvement.

    Time to sit back and rediscover those old favourites and some new ones.
    Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

    Analog Inputs: Pro-Ject Signature 10 TT & arm, Benz Micro LP-S, Michel Cusis MC, Goldring 2500 and Ortofon Rondo Blue cartridges, Hitachi FT5500 mk2 Tuner

    Digital:- Marantz SA-KI Pearl CD player, RaspberryPi/HifiBerry Digi+ Pro, Buffalo NAS Drive

    Amplification:- AudioValve Sunilda phono stage, Krell KSP-7B pre-amp, Krell KSA-80 power amp

    Output: Wilson Benesch Vector speakers, KLH Ultimate One Headphones

    Cables: Tellurium Q Ultra Black II RCA & Chord Epic 2 RCA, various speaker leads, & links


    I think I am nearing audio nirvana, but don’t tell anyone.

    May change the phonostage to Rega’s new Aura to get the best out of it, but yeah, last deck I’ll ever need.
    Lou Reed New York - awesome album, one of my favourites.

    But which Lou Reed album made you swear?

    By coincidence I was playing Coney Island Baby earlier.
