OK - Now What…?

Gryphon Diablo 300
Sonus Faber Serafino Tradition 
Aurender A10 Streamer/DAC
Triode Wire Connectors
Amazon Sine-Wave Battery Back-Up
Transparent PowerBank

I sadly got rid of all my vinyl ages ago…so I’m not sure I’m ready for a high-end TT….

I am absolutely thrilled with the sound of this system. Honey - Chocolate Mouse - Chilean Sea Bass - and then Gordon Ramsey jumps out at me screaming expletives but then Mother Teresa calms him down.

Guys - What’s my next move…? 
The Amazon commercial back-up…? Better power conditioning…?

Any and all suggestions welcome…!

Thank you..!

1. Audition the different streaming services. They do not sound the same.
2. Reexamine your speaker placement and room acoustics.
3. Occasionally, connect a pair of lousy speakers to your system so you can remember how wonderful your system truly is. (How easily we forget.)

pedroeb  Internal Reflection Control is B&W's middle name.  Check out the real Nautilus, not the 800 series, although they do a great job, too.  Some people actually like the bass augmentation of non-damped internals.  I have even heard them say some wood is better than others.

don’t do anything...changing the power conditioning will change the sound...if you can borrow 2 subs that might be a great thing to try, worked for me...with your floor standers you can get great bass with 2 subs...there is a great thread from a few years ago about 2subs with floor standers...Duke, the designer/seller of the swarm gives great advice on the 2 sub set up, worth a try...

Why in the world would you have gotten rid of all your vinyl and the equipment to play it? I just played a few records last night and was blown away by some of them, yes some don't sound great, but some sound excellent! Same with cd's or streaming....not all sound great...you just ditched some possibly irreplaceable recordings. I'll never understand why people do this. Music in all formats is how I roll...but when seriously listening, it is always vinyl.
