Could not agree more with Brian's take on the E-270. 44 pounds in the relatively thin chassis makes it a very "dense" piece of gear.
After 10+ days of round-the-clock playing (probably 70% FM, 20% digital and 10% analog) I think I can safely say my E-270 is broken-in. Major change over this time to my ears has been the extension at both ends, especially the bass, and depth of the sound-stage. What nice piece of gear. The AD-50 phono-card does an excellent job thus far with the Ortofon 2M Black and AT33R. Will see how it does with the Lyra Kleos shortly.
