Thanks Alberto. I've enjoyed listening to this table in the past and there was a deal that came up that was just way to good to pass on.

I even put a little vinyl on tonight, some Gene Ammons and Ike Quebec that I bought today.
Not bad.

Congrats Serge !!
As always, a great post ! You'll be surprised but I considered the same TT and the same SME V arm before buying the Clearaudio. I thinked about it again yesterday because the SME importer in France, who's also one of the best Mc technician came to my house to take one of my 2301 for a check up. The reasons why I chose the Clearaudio vs the SME at that time were: - I listened to the Clearaudio at JM's home and loved it - I wanted a change over my previous LP12 so I thought I would have more change with a high mass non suspended design - The SME was at about 8000 euros without a cart vs 4700 euros for the Clearaudio with the Talisman MC and my lp collection is not huge so price had to remain at wife reasonable levels... - I had to go a bit far in a owner's home to listen to the SME because the importer did not have one on display. - I read some reviews stating like you that without missing of anything the SME was not an extraverted table. Like most suspended designs actually so once again I wanted a clear change from the Clearaudio. - If I had to go for a rather pricey TT, I wanted it to be my last step with TT's and would have gone for the Lp12 Se at 13000 euros fully loaded. My best friend has one I know pretty well. Saying all this and reading your post I think that I probably would have been happier with the SME because my tastes in audio are more towards charm and bloom than the extraverted and impressive sound. I'm still very happy with the Clearaudio but I 'm sure that won't be my last TT. When my lp collection will be big enough, I will offer myself a LP12 se and I will be done with TTs. Once again, thank you very much for sharing with us your new and impressive set up. I will look forward the next conclusions especially with the Maxx 3 ! Cheers Jerome

I bet that you will spend more and more time in the studio and I would not be surprised to see you moving the Micro Seiki in the living room to hear what happens on the PMC...
