Considering simplifying my system... talk me down (or whatever)
If I make it to eighty with good ears nobody's changing nothing I listen to. Unless I upgrade. 
Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go?

Budget? Cartridge recommendations
How much gain will the Rowland give you? 
Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl
When I bought my first upgraded system it was vinyl or tape. So analog only. There are certainly things to like and dislike. What I found when jumping back in 30 years later was that vinyl reproduction had upped it's game considerably, although th...
