booplinth for Linn Sondek
You can order on line there are also two dealers Galen Carol in San Antonio Texas and Audio Concepts in Dallas Texas that deal w/the distributor. If you have a Linn dealer near you you might want to inquire. You may also want to checkout Woodsong ... 
Aerial speakers 6T/7T
Go to Audio Video Therapy in Nashua NH. They have 5, 6 and 7T's. If you want they'll let you take them home to demo. The owner by the way is a personal friend of Michael Kelly and this store sold the first Aerial speakers.

Wakethetown: I looked at Acoustic Signature, VPI Prime, Clear Audio DC Wood. But every time I saw this TT at my dealers store I had to have it. Smooth yet dynamic sound. Very quiet plus some of the features, detachable head, able to fine tune the ...

Thiels and Tubes
If you want tubes w/Thiel go w/a tube preamp and SS amps. I had a pair of 2.3's w/two modified Threshold T50 amps and an Audio Research SP-16. Very nice sound. Removed some of the harshness at the top but it still had plenty of detail. 
Thoughts on the EAT C series tables
For an excellent bargain my dealer has been selling the EAT C-Sharp w/white trim. Eat decided not to make anymore white trim. However you get the TT for $3500 w/the Jo No5 cart. Excellent cart.

Proper DAC Upgrade for my modest system.
John always has me demo equipment I'm interested in before purchasing. Makes a big difference in deciding what's right for your system.  
Harbeth owners seem to prefer Luxman

The Chord Qutest and the $2500 Chord Hugo. Compared them in the store and took them home to demo on my system. Who's your dealer?
