Very fine and articulate arm. But the Viv amongst all its bizarreness and going against all conventional logic, to my ears sounds better. Not finer in accuracy but certainly more dynamic and musical.

Given your track record of never usually providing any worthwhile commentary on your many interesting purchases, this cartridge must be seriously fucking good!

Let me remedy that for you now with a few informative words.
Techdas Airforce 3 turntable -
- Matches the aesthetic of my Magimix blender in the kitchen, it has buttons that make the record stick to, as well as start and stop the platter. Spins beautifully.
Avangarde Duo XD speakers
- Otherwise known as āDivorcersā these are imposing horns which make nice boom and squeak noises. Horns are often dismissed as coloured and these come in a lovely shade which I describe as ānot blueā to my loving wife who these continue to grow upon.
Dartzeel NHB-19NS preamp
- Ostentatious eye-gash which reliably make the boom and squeak noises from the divorcers go louder or quieter. Tactile remote control comes in red and has buttons which replicate said functionality without getting up and spilling your medicine.
SIT monoblocks
- Enormous toe smashers which are two thirds heatsink each by volume. One of the heaviest ways of providing fuck all power whilst convecting overwhelming heat to the listening position. Minimal outlay for their performance, which is offset by the cost of running them for any length of time.
Hope that helps.

Perfect. @Tons_of_fun , eat your heart out.
No mention of cables, cable lifters, power regenerators, power conditioners, fuses, mains spurs, earth boxes and external earthing arrangements to the garden.

Well obviously it goes without saying. I mean what kind of absolute amateur would even bother switching the damn thing on if you hadnāt spent at least Ā£20k on an entry level cryo treated loom and associated crystals and wood boxes filled with dirt. I mean can you even imagineā¦.?

Scout has by far the sharpest of ears and as such her review is being held back for Stereophile next month.
