I just auditioned this unit a couple of days ago. Very, very, very musical. The unit I auditioned had an Audio Note MM cartridge, not the Maestro, which I’m told is not quite as smooth. Seems to be kind of a no brainer in this price category.

Can an older Ambient be upgraded with the CMB bearing?

Yes Clearaudio offers a CMB bearing upgrade and you can even step up to a Magnum upgrade which is the 70mm platter and tonearm tower.... That's a really nice thing about Clearaudio tables!
