    Luckily, and rather unlike me, I had the forethought and clarity of mind to spec a roof, on the right 1/4, too

    Respect! If it has a pitched roof that would be beneficial when it comes to room modes and their suppression.

    Thanks. Even better Barry, it's actually a Cathedral ceiling with the apex being down the long length of the room.

    Pretty much mint, Martin.

    I was looking for a decent sounding, unusual, nice looking Japanese DD TT to replace my SP-10 and TTS-8000 TT’s. I think I may have found it.

    That looks really good, but what do you mean, replace the Technics and the Sony? You slimming down your collection?
