townsend rock reference mkv

one of the most regrettable things i EVER did was sell my origional rock reference tt
for about 5 years i have tried to replace that tt only to find they sell used like hotcakes.
finally there is A new mk5 version availiable
has anybody tried this yet?
I heard one today and was shell shocked as to how good this deck actually is
a home demo has been booked
this is without doubt the quietest tt i have ever heard
and yet it delivers!!!!
my wife is going to kill me!
all the best

Silly me!

Lordy, I thought it was six "K", nine puts it a whole 'nother stratosphere. There is some seriously sick competition in that range - Galibier Gavia w/ Gavia platter, Redpoint Model A, Amazon Reference, Verdier Platine, Nottingham Dais, etc.

No wonder he's worried about his wife finding out.

Thomas,
My girlfriend has stated that if I ever really screw up, and screw up BIG(cheating, crime, etc.), there's is only one thing likely to help her get past it - Manolo Blahnik, and LOTS of it, regularly.

God help you if you do screw up
WITH PRICES LIKE THAT AND MANY OF THEM.... OUCH!
Should be a good deterrent!

Add on to that, she's a lawyer, and a damn good one, too.
Keeps me on my toes!

Actually, I'm constantly amazed that she puts up with my obsession with audio - moving speakers around, new amps, isolation transformers, cables everywhere, late night listening sessions, etc. I guess it's better than when I used live in bars.

I just sold my house, escrow closes in 21 days. Time for me to start thinking about upgrades.
