OK, I'll play...

The first pic is my main 'table--a VPI Aries 3 with a Lyra cartridge.




This is the rest of the main rig (I have 3 fully functional audio rigs--the others are a bit smaller).

As vinyl records go, I have about 7,000 or so. Probably 2,000 of them are newer reissues on 180/200g pressings.



Enjoy the listen...

You magnificent bastard. It's so beautiful. I will be asking you questions in the coming months.

Just bought a few LP's on Amazon.

This is a turntable that belonged to my uncle before he passed away. It is an old BIC turntable. Not in working condition right now and it has been in storage for a while, so hoping I can get it restored some and have it on my shelf. I like the kind of retro look it has.

marco, I am hoping you can give me some advice. i'm looking to upgrade my amp and preamp. My current set up is one of your side rigs I believe.

Rotel 1075 amp
Rotel 1068 pre
Klipsch epic cf-3's
Acoustic Research turntable

My choices on amps are a Mac M352 or a Pass Labs X250.5. I haven't heard the pass but have owned nakamichi gear in the past and liked it. Any thoughts on these two?

On the preamp side i'm thinking the Mac C2300 or a Cary SLP-05. Have you listened to any Cary products?
Apparently, no Cary dealers in LA.

I really like the Klipsch and the a.r. table and will keep those for as long as they hold out.

Thanks!
