Great story! Thank you for sharing! Enjoy your listening!!
How have I missed out for soooo long!!!!
So I just picked up a TT that would work properly with my Marantz PM-11s3... Nothing special because what I had heard out of my last TT left me not really wanting to pursue vinyl and continue collecting redbook and SACD.
Anyway my 86yo father was coming in town and bringing some of his old favorite albums along with his great stories of a time past. He is the best story teller I swear and what hooks him is hearing his old music, it always takes him back!
This was the opportunity for me to upgrade to a TT that would let my Marantz use its phono stage and shine... And has it! I ditched the old budget Marantz TT for another rather budget TT in a Pro-Ject S2. But the real deal is that now the PM-11s3 is handling the the pre-amp chores and oh my God!!!!
How is it that no one in the last 30 years has asked “have you tried vinyl on that system?”
I am completely blown away at the performance of this entry TT and now am convinced that just after two days I will be at my HI-FI Shop tomorrow to order something much more in line with my system!
I played Diana Krall “Live in Paris” streamed through my Sonos connect via Deezer, then through my Marantz UD7007 on DVD, and then on the Pro-Ject TT.... The TT was the winner hands down! How have I missed out for so long!
Now I have to go get the SACD of this performance to see where it really stacks up but as of right now I’m hooked!
Here is to my father through his own way bringing ME back to a better time and I’m really enjoying it!
