I appreciate the effort seen in many of these responses. A couple of good questions were asked, which should be answered. I am happy with the direction that I seem to be going. The summary of the sound sound that was mentioned earlier was accurate.
I was not aware of the Benz upgrade program. From what was said, it seems as if I should seriously consider that option. One problem I have is that lack of retail outlets through which to do anything like that though. Only one peice of my system was bought locally due to the inavailability of anything of quality in my litle town (sounds like a song).
The idea of upgrading the Sony is one which I have considered. Maybe I should do it more. I have been thinking about selling the Sony and buying a Krell SACD Standard. I wonder which would sound better. The Krell would cost me over $1000 more than I could get for the Sony.
The Sota TT was upgraded at Sota about three years ago so it is in real good shape, but I know the Cosmos is an altogether better TT. The arm could be improved with the counterweight and better cable. Since I use the TT as my primary music source this would be the first place for me to focus.
The room could use some help as could nearly everyone's except Slipknot, whose room I envy. Carl, I would like to have the post removed, but I'm still not sure about the short wall setup.
WOuld I notice a difference between my PS Audio ports and those that Albert is selling?
Maybe some better PCs would be in order, but so far I have been hesitant to do that since I have been so pleased with the DIY PCs that I made. Anybody want to buy one or five?
