| Rega planar 3 (50th Anniversary) Looks nice. I demo'd a P3 a few months ago and thought it was a good value. I had a P3 years ago and it served me well. Really can't go wrong with a P3 | |
| Don't sell your tube amps I was going to sell my pre and mono amps that were displaced during my last upgrade. After a few low ball offers I decided to do a second system. I'm ordering a pair of speakers this week. Inevitably I would have had sellers remorse anyway. | |

| Phono pre amp suggestion I just picked up a Sutherland KC Vibe, sounds great. Using it with Sota Escape, Origin Live Silver Arm and Ortofon 2m Bronze. | |
| Looking for high power warming sounding tube amps V4 is a great amp. It can use a few different tubes which helps when it’s time to re-tube. You can not go wrong with a Quicksilver. Huge bang for the buck | |

| 300b lovers I took a leap of faith and had a 300b built without ever hearing one. It has none of the “cons” often associated with generic descriptions of the tube type. No mushy lows, rolled off highs. It all has to do with the design and parts used..... | |
