Dave, I've heard that Pass and ML's are wonderful together!

BTW, even high-end cruise lines are using cable elevators these days...

LOL Alan, that's too funny !!

Aren't those Roomba access lifts so the carpet stays clean ?

Someone always has to stir the pot.

Someone always has to stir the pot.

Technically I have a Neato, but since I'm not using cable lifts I have to vacuum around my cables by hand.

Finally ......updated system pics

 

[Brad225]

New system pics look great Dave. Haven't gotten use to members systems without ML's.

I'm sure it sounds heavenly though.

Just recently sold my ARC LS27 line stage to young friend helping to get started in this whacky hobby of ours, replaced it with the LS28. I'll take a pic one of these days ............

Sorry I missed this.

What a selfless act of humanitarianism Dave. How is the LS28 sounding? We need Pics!

I believe a wise man here has said "These threads are useless without pics".

just as good as the LS27 that it replaced !

LOL Brad, like Rich........I'll get to it in 'short order' !

Ok, so COVID19 combined with a dreary morning has me inside, don't want to rush into anything Brad but here is an updated pic ! (LS28 and Marantz Ruby) ..........

Have a fondness for the White Album too. When I was a kid my folks had mostly classical records, but the White Album was a welcome exception (along with Allman Brothers Eat a Peach). I'm running Marantz for CD/SACD as well (SA-10). Considered Esoteric but I think the Marantz sounds great. Maybe Esoteric is better but at a significant step up in cost. Probably I should avoid auditioning them....

Dan, Marantz Is, IMO the sweet spot with regards to CD/SACD playback. Esoteric is like Porsche and Marantz is the Corvette. My comparison goes beyond just performance, God bless you need to repair your Esoteric, you will then now what I mean !

 

[twich54]

added a new member to my Lp cleaning arsenal, a Degritter Ultrasonic RCM, love it !

Dan, Marantz Is, IMO the sweet spot with regards to CS/SACD playback.

I second that!
