AMG V12 vs SME 20/12

I currently have a Brinkmann Bardo (all options)/ 10.5 arm/ Per Winfield used with a Bryston BP26/BP1.5/14BSST2 and Focal Utopia Scala's. I'm happy with it just getting bored.

Honestly, I'd be reluctant to sell your TT...you seem to have a pretty great set up...

What cables and power conditioning? Any isolation racks/shelfs/footers?

I've heard the higher Grand Utopia EM...so I know your speakers are very good...

Depending on your cables/conditioning/isolation I might suggest electronics next...maybe try a tube phono stage or preamp...

Nothing too too high-end cable wise, I have a solid tech stand with the top HRS platform for the table. My 14B goes straight to the wall the rest Through a big Bryston /Torus BIT conditioner.

I'm with Jfrech. Try auditioning a tube phono stage or preamp at home. Either would give you a new window into your system; and you could always roll tubes to alleviate future boredom. I use a VAC pre-amp with my Bryston amps and like the synergy. I also have a Brinkmann DD, an Oasis.

So I guess no one has heard both........Anyways thanks for the replies.

Or how about this, anyone compare the top Bardo all options with the 10.5 against an AMG or SME 20/12?

Not sure about the AMG but the SME would allow me to upgrade to an MC Anna, may be a bit much for my 10.5.
