I don't want to listen to the system at all, I want to listen to the music. In order to do this I need the system to deliver detail and emotional communication of the music. I think that I've found this now.
Future plans - buy more music. If I have the money I want to replace all interconnects with Argento Serenity cables, and possibly upgrade the turntable. I'm not sure if I'll DIY and build a resin plinth, or a new turntable. In any case I'll upgrade the arm to a Thales Simplicity.
System edited: It's taken a long time (30 years) to find a turntable that was a significant improvement on my Funk Firm modified Pink Triangle, but finally I've done it. Inner groove distortion be gone!
