Vertere in the UK has closed down. I was just about to buy one of their turntables and found I was too late!

Not to derail the thread, but what will your new speakers be? Are you replacing the Calibres? or adding a new pair?

Adding a new pair all right...

Custom build pair of Legacy Valor, stock 2,750 watts internal power and another 4 channels of external amplification, also a new build, the i.V4 ULTRA (650w x 4, monoblock design approach per single channel), first of its kind [emoji2]
