Nice. What's your take on the Emerald Physics? They're on my consideration list as a replacement for an aging pair of Carver Amazing, but chances of an audition are pretty slim here in snow-bound Northern WI

Rooze, I love the EP speakers. The bass is adequate in my small room. The mids are gorgeous. Why don't you call up Walter @ EP and check if there are other EP owners in your area?
@Mike, neekomax - Thanks.
Those of you astute enough would have noticed that the VPI Scout is not connected to the system and that is because I am still looking for a phono preamp. To tide me over for some time, I have pledged for the new Hagerman Bugle2 on Kickstarter. Will probably post another updated video once the vinyly starts rolling.
