Marakanetz, I recently purchased a demo Monolithic PS-1 for $300 and I can't belive how much "presicion and detailability" I'm getting. It's hooked on one end to my 'new' Melos SHA-3 hybrid preamp and on the other end to my infamous modified Technics 1200 w/Ortofon X5 MC(2 mV). I do not have the outboard PS but the unit it's plugged to a Tice A/V Solo conditioner. Bass is stunningly visceral, highs are detailed yet extremely musical. Soundstage is very good, too! The analog rig humiliates my Cambridge D300SE/Soundtream DAC-1 combo.
You and I are pretty much along the same lines. Just that you bought the wrong turntable...
