Understood. I use neither TT nor disc player but have everything on my NAS and server. My Salamander equipment rack is 42" high and, on its top, is the keyboard, mouse and large volume control for the server. The display screen hovers above that at my eye level. As a result, I can walk over to it and access everything I need without crouching, bending or stretching. Below are all the components but none of them require any physical contact except for on/off once a week.

Dave.......Holy mackeral. I used to ride the California Street cable car everyday. I bought a couple dollars worth of SF Transit coins at 15 cents each and one coin would get you where you were going. I lived in SF from '68 to '72, so things were cheaper then. I would not pay $7.00 to ride the cable car now, no way.

SF between ‘68 and ‘72. Great music (and more...) scene then. Hope you got to watch good shows!
