Outside of the recent swap out that should be arriving today, I've been truly enjoying NOT looking at/for gear outside of idle curiosity. It's been wonderful the last 8 months just listening to the system ;)

I’m right there with you.

It’s funny- if you don’t buy gear you have money for albums. If you don’t buy albums, you have money for gear. Either way, it’s a win.

Yeah - I have two more swaps to make before I think I'm there. Since I'm operating on a fairly strict budget, I'm taking the "scenic route" to my end-game system but getting closer. Patience is a virtue, but it's also damn annoying.

Actually it doesn’t. I’d want the newer version with the remote. I only use 2 inputs on my NAD line stage. If I had the Manley, it would replace the Sutherlands and the NAD.

Gold Note turntables are really nice and that looks even better in person. I’ve not heard it beyond a very quick demo which was more about showing it off to me than any listening but them and origin live were the two brands the dealer I bought my PrimaLuna from was raving about when I went to pick it up!

This looks like a great deal if you have room for Klipschorns. Note: these must be placed in the corners of the room.
