Dishman, wow 6 months. I wonder if I can speed up that time by sourcing music as much as possible even without listening as Ive been doing. Of the 120 + running music hours, Ive listened maybe 12 hours.
JMW, you make a valid point. Let me note that an Analog Production pressing like Nora Jones sounds beautiful even with my old amp. Thats my play when friends check out my system.
Granted, my room treatments DO need to be enhanced. Need better defusion behind Maggies even tho they're 4ft from front wall, 4 ft from side walls, 5 ft apart, LP 9ft back, 12ft behind LP to back wall. Just cant get them to "disappear". Ive tried LP froward & back.
Also, as much as I love my 40 year old recapped Carver pre amp with SO MANY functions Im sure a higher end pre amp (Candela, maybe) would benefit.
