another WOWWWW  .. especially on 1200 gold TT..



Just lucky enough to get one after 3 years search ;)





Quote from: JoeyGS on Nov 02, 2010 at 07:13 AM
Congrats on your setup....Almost all are collectibles.

Which is the best combination?

I still like the Sonus Faber, VPI & Alchemist Forseti combination, but I'm surprised with the class A performance of Marantz PM6, I think it can even surpass my main set-up :)
