It's up and running now. So far I've gone through the first three Led Zep Classic reissues, figuring that oughta help it break in. After #4 I'm going to throw on some vocal and acoustic stuff.
I'd have to say I'm impressed with it out of the box. I really like the 103r, but this just has a "liitle more" of everything. But damn this thing is light. I played hell getting the counterweight up far enough so it would track at 1.8 (actually 1.78, close as I could get it).
Don't worry, I'll post more as I get a few hours on it. I do want to do some direct A/B with the Denon.
And big thanks to Vicki at Parts Connexion for getting my order to me in less than 24 hours. Great service!!!
