Excellent choices there! Those are both wonderfully well recorded and mastered LP’s. Can’t say for CD reissues or later digital variants… in particular the Waltz for Debby reissue from (Acoustic Sounds - I think, too tired to go look now LOL) has long been a reference for me via my LP playback chain.

Ugh. If I said I didn't remember any of those would I have to go sit in the corner? 🤣 I didn't get my audiophile diploma until the early '90's, so I'm probably just behind the curve. :slight_smile:
I remember… watching my ADC track the Telarc 1812 was a trip… when I saw it for the first time a while later on a uni-pivot arm…. Talk about weebles wobble but they don’t fall down! It was hilarious… can’t even remember my TT then, something direct drive with a very low mass carbon fiber tonearm…

Bought my last SACD for the DSD tracks. No more.

While I love my Denon DVD3910 and I've kept it as my CD player because of SACD playback, since getting Yggy, I cannot listen to the Denon imbedded DAC. It sounds thin, harsh, and dull by comparison. I used to love listening to SACD via the Denon and it was awesome (I thought), but Redbook CD via Yggy just smoked it! Yggy has spoiled me irreparably.

I see an Urd in my future. 😒
I see an URD in your future, too. :smile_cat:

I still have work to do but @bcowen’s mini Schiit rack is coming along. I need to sand and finish the support pieces, cut off some excess wood etc. At least I know the tiger stripes show.

Oh man. That is some gorgeous wood! Love it!! And love the routed edges too. That has to be a pain with wood as hard as maple without having it chip or splinter.
