No, I have been using it w/ the XR2 for some weeks but I made a cable change shortly after that and I think it was a bad one.
A subwoofer went into the system yesterday and the SACDmods 963 later this week. This system has been constantly moving but should start to settle down once the Stealth is here and evrything is properly cabled in. Then I'll start to fine tune things a bit. Right now it's too much of a moving target.

1. Did the 963 come back yet? Will you give us impressions?

See the source forum.

thanks.

can't wait till you use your new phono stage and do a comparison using some great recording on some nice vinyl pressing vs the redbood version.

The best solution to this I've found is to mount the record player to the wall.
It can be made to look like it is on a rack, but if mounted on a load bearing wall it will be very solid.
