My combo which we have discussed isn't going anywhere . The only thing letting it down is poor resolution through my IMF speakers. It's a pity my ATC's are active and not passive I'd been able to really see what they could do. The only other thing you need to watch out for is high gain in your phonostage, careful capacitance matching and making sure your tonearm mass matches the generally accpeted Shure wisdom, then you'll have something which not only matches the M55e/Neo SAS combo but also betters it (albeit with a slightly newer feel to the sound).
