Thanks guys, Jim, I hear you loud and clear, enough is enough for both of us! I’m pretty excited, let’s face it, the table is beautiful but I think I’m honestly looking forward to the Lyra Etna Lambda cart the most.....It has an output voltage of 0.56 vs my XX2 at 0.28. This is really gonna help my noise floor which can increase a bit if I really turn up the volume not to mention the quieter direct drive motor of the Brinkmann. The Etna is one of the handful of the best cartridges on the market.....I cannot wait to grab an LP out of my Beatles U.K. BC 13 all analog blue box and see what happens.
