| Some vinyl triggering sub to crackle Thanks guys. Im leaning more towards Rauls explanation as digital gives to issues at all. I have a new Soundsmith Cartridge coming so hopefully the tech can help me troubleshoot when he comes out to install. | |

| Bryston vs MBL With reference to tubes, i decided to go with SS for now. If i were to venture into tubes for amps, i would be looking at AR 250 monos to team up with the 5SE. | |
