OK, I need to check out some big orchestration. Put this rig to a test.

Karajan conducts Mendelssohn. Symphony 1 & 2. Berlin Philharmonic. From the 5 Symphonies box set. Deutsche Grammophon. 1981 German pressing.
Remember Brian, you are going down the rabbit hole. 

You have mostly new components that need break-in.

lol, I think I got deeper than originally planned. But, that’s why they call it the rabbit hole.

If the cart, and interconnects, sound better after 10-20 hours, I’m OK with that, as it sounds pretty damn good now.

BTW, playing the Karajan/Mendelssohn without the clamp 😉

Between the table, arm, and cart, I think my classical collection will all have new life as well if what I’m hearing now is any indication. Not one bit of ‘over loading’, smearing, etc. it’s handling the big stuff with ease. Full louder portions of orchestration is maintaining great clarity and separation/imaging.


And my ol Vandy 2CE Sigs sound better than ever 👍🏻
