Testing your system

In testing your system, check whether the musical message is coming through rather than looking for sonic perfection.

I find that is the key to fulfillment.

Musicality for the heart first but it has to please my ears too. Hence, for music lacking in recording quality, I use the loki max for digital sources and the Puffin for my secondary TT. My primary TT is the only source I can't equalize, because I don't need to. I only play top recordings there, about a third of my LPs.
