The last time I was at my dealer, I was able to bring some records to listen to the following system:

MT-10-C500-MC2KW-MBL 101 Extreme. I think for digital there was some Esoteric gear, but I wanted to listen to the MT-10.

I brought Thelonious Monk's "Monk's Music" on 200G 45rpm vinyl. The imaging was so precise, you could hear how far the space was between the tom and the snare drums in Art Blakey's drum kit. It was incredible. That is such a fun record to hear on a "big" system. I love how Monk yells to Coltrane to begin his solo. Its like he's in the room.

Interestingly, they are a dealer for SME as well. He's had a number of customers prefer the MT-10 over the SME 20/2!

Anyway, just sharing a fun story. And no I didn't get the MT-10, but its on my list.
