Hi

Just an old guy falling back on music as a source of beauty and sanity in a crazy world.

My current system is an Onkyo TX-NR 828, fed by an Emotiva CD player, an Audio-Technica turntable with Grado cartridge, a Roku, and Dish, and feeding Fluance mains, a BIC sub, Klipsch heights, and Polk center and sides. The weakest link at the moment, the phono stage in the Onkyo, should be fixed presently by the Bugle2 in shipment. The weakest link before that was on Onkyo C-7030 CD player, whose fidelity was far inferior to the Emotiva's. Now with the Emotiva CDs are sounding much better than vinyl, which isn't the proper order of things, so fingers-crossed the Bugle2 will restore that here.

Thanks for the welcomes! Meanwhile the Bugle2 came. Huge improvement over the Onkyo's phono stage. Makes stuff sparkle that through the Onkyo alone sounded flat and gray. Otherwise I mostly like the Onkyo -- far better than the very wimpy-sounding Denon AVR it replace a couple of years ago. But for anyone wondering, yeah the phono inputs on an Onkyo AVR are an afterthought.
