Hi, thanks for the warm welcome!
i guessi just stayed away for awhile there. Yes I am the same Elizabeth on the AA forums and AudiogoN. i usually hang out there.
The one question asked I want to still answer was what do I use for Lp playback.
i have a Rega P5 with a Benz glider medium output. And a Kuzma Stogi S with a Dynavector karat 17D3 cart
With about 6,000 LPs to play on them. 2,000 Classical, 1,800 Jazz, and 2,200 Rock.
Wow, that's a nice setup, and a ton of LPs! I make do with a Technics 1210M5G and about 500 LPs.
