| Nottingham Spacedeck vs Rega Planar 8 vs Technics SL1200G I never heard the Rega nor the Technics, but I own a very very old Spacedeck.

| First Watt vs McIntosh vs Ampzilla Thank you all for the inputs. I had to put this issue on standby for a while and when I got back to it, I followed a different path. Bought a pair of monoblocks from Temple Audio and I'm very happy with the result. Everything I was looking for, I ... | |
