| So what would you recommend for my next upgrade? I am not sure what your budget is for making changes, but based on my experience I would recommend you make fewer changes and take bigger steps, that is instead of spending on a bunch of tweaks, make significant component changes.I would start wit... | |
| Rega RP6 VTA issue Wolf, There is a demo PRO-JECT - XTENSION 10 on Audiogon. I have seen and heard this turntable. I think it is a real bargain especially as a demo. No relationship to seller. | |
| Great Tube/SS Amp for Proac D40R ? I have a pair of Quicksilver V-4 amp (KT-77 or EL-34 tubes) driving my Proac Response 2.5. It is a great combination. I have also heard the Quicksilver V-4 on the D-30R (KT-88 tubes)and I thought that also sounded great. I think Quicksilver is syn... | |

| Project Xtension 12 or VPI Classic 3 12-27-13: Jmcgrogan2"While I do agree with this, personal tastes are also critical as to what is "better". ...So any opinions expressed should be taken with a very large grain of salt."I agree with you completely. My comment was addressed at "bran... | |
| Project Xtension 12 or VPI Classic 3 I have heard the Sumiko you are looking at, and IMO it is a very good table. It was in a Shindo/Devore system I have heard many times. I also think it is underpriced and should be selling for more. A very good deal packaged with the Pearwood Celeb... | |
| Preamp for Art Jota How about an Art Audio Alana? There is one for sale on Audiogon now. No relationship with the seller, but I own one and like it. | |
