Thanks for the feedback. Here is some of what makes up the rest of the chain. AcousTech Ph1, modded Maggie MG3a's, 2 M&K 150 subs, PSB Gold i's, and a Crown XlS 150. I all the speakers in a hybrid configuration, with the PSB inboard, down in volume and with HP at 60 Hz, with great results. It give the Maggies a bit more liveliness and punch, as well as more headroom for rockin nights.
Headphone listening has become a major enjoyment. The Hifiman and Benchmark are a great combination.
I also agree that tubes are great but in the end and on my limited budget, my almost 40 year search for the perfect turntable has landed me here. It is a nice place to be and may keep me more than happy for a while.
