I haven't subscribed yet so no pics. Loving the Mc611/C1100 combo with the Aerial 10T's I've owned over 20 years. Decided to upgrade the turntable instead of new speakers as the Aerials sounded great. Maybe B&W 800's next year.

My question relates to the two choices below. Both available in town with installation.

1) Clearaudio Innovation Wood turntable with Clearaudio Universal 9" tonearm and Clearaudio Jubilee Panzerholz MC cartridge.

2) Oracle Delphi Reference table with a new Tri-Planar arm and Lyra Etna Lambda cartridge(6 hours use as demo at dealer). Suppose to be a Kleos cartridge with package but there's a 6 month delay. Discounting about 2K from retail on Etna.

Option 2 is about $6600 more after trade-ins etc. Is the difference worth it? Anyone have experience with either or similar set-ups and have some feedback in helping make my choice.

Thanks in advance for any feedback from users on either choice.
