Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday!
Stunning on some CDs. But good even on the less well engineered ones. I can still hear that digital signature that is a little irritating that is not present on th record. I'm splitting hairs on that one. Really no big complaints. 97 percent praise.

Yes I thought one was cut too slow compared to the CD. It sounded dull. I rethought that years later and appreciated the mellow smoothness and don't think it was little if any slower that the CD 
Focal 1038Be with Bryston?

I had a pair of Techsonics but couldn't tell a difference. I also had concerns that they kept falling off. Also I thought they should have been directly bolted on to the speakers. Take the magnetic panel off too for a secure bond.

The speaker stands I made were worthwhile. The bass tightened up and the midrange was less smeared.

Awesome. Music is the machinery of the universe. 
Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday!
Just got Yes "Going for the One " remastered CD and it is awesome on the Marantz. All the high frequencies that were shrill on the record are now tonally very pleasant. 
Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD
I just received Yes "Going for the One " remastered CD for my birthday, I popped it in my Marantz SA-10 and it slayed the record. There are a lot of high frequencies in the record that were very shrill and piercing. One reason must be it has an of...

Both but don't never thought that single layer and hybrids could sound different? Interesting
