    You are reading my mind, scary! But seriously thanks so much for your encouragement along the way.

    I have an Audio Research Ref 2 Mk2 Pre amp on order, used of course. What are your thought on Class A Power amps that would possibly match this.....tubes probably.
    On the vinyl side I have a Linn with Ittock Arm and Dynavector 20dXX Cartridge and the Phono Stage is a Linto.

    Those Westminsters will need control even if not a lot of power. How about EAR power amps, such as the 861?
