@spiritofradioThx! Need to find an original pressing on vinyl 
Classical Top Five
Tchaikovsky. E-flat/7th Symphony has been widely overlooked. 
Which to upgrade first: Turntable or Phono Preamp
You have a well balanced analog set up. Where do you think the weak link is? Not hearing the set up an educated guess would be upgrade the phono preamp.

The longest you have owned any gear?
10 years with a Valve Audio Predator. Still own it but Esoteric separates have replaced it. I will set up a 2nd system with ATC SCM 7v3's.
