Thanks in advance

I currently have a Brinkmann Bardo (all options)/ 10.5 arm/ Per Winfield used with a Bryston BP26/BP1.5/14BSST2 and Focal Utopia Scala's. I'm happy with it just getting bored.
Nothing too too high-end cable wise, I have a solid tech stand with the top HRS platform for the table. My 14B goes straight to the wall the rest Through a big Bryston /Torus BIT conditioner.
So I guess no one has heard both........Anyways thanks for the replies.

Or how about this, anyone compare the top Bardo all options with the 10.5 against an AMG or SME 20/12?

Not sure about the AMG but the SME would allow me to upgrade to an MC Anna, may be a bit much for my 10.5.
Is there more than one version? well sort of yes, there are options like the glass/ stainless mat with clamp and a better power supply.

I should hope the Balance sounds better!
Ended up buying the SME 20/12 but with V12 arm. Couldn't hold off on my dream cartridge, the Ortofon MC Anna. Just picked one up 2 days ago.

What a wonderful sounding record player, love it.
