Nope! I have one also. I bought it a couple of years when I downsized - phono stage is a cracker. At normal listening levels the B60 sounds about as good as anything I've heard regardless of price -- makes me wonder why people spend $$ on hi fi.

Running with a pair of Harbeth SHL5+ speakers and an Esoteric K-05x.

The worst thing that can be said about my system is that is sounds like the control room of a recording or broadcast studio. Sure I could use a bit more power occasionally -- but my room is small and the b60 works for 99% of the music I have.

Like you, I like the looks of the B60 as well.
