I'm sure that it adds some natural holographic qualities to the music =D
Yeah it really looks awesome. I'm hoping to make a wood base for my TT.

Damn that thing is Gorgeous! Do you know what the sensitivity rating of your 2.3tl's is?
Edit:
Nevermind, according to Polk's site they're 90db.

Nice tubes! Are you running just the turntable to it or do you have other sources connected as well?

I sure hope it's better than the Yaqin MS-11B phonopreamp. Worst Phonopreamp EVER! Never had the 11B but have read good things about it. This integrated had been rock solid, zero problems since the day I unpacked it. Very happy with it so far. Like it much better than the XPA-2 and USP-1 it replaced |

That seems to be the trend around here when someone makes those kind of statements....  |

Personally, I would never start a thread about gear from another manufacturer on a dedicated site like this. Or any other dedicated site for that matter. |

I suppose when I come on this forum I could say how great Emo gear is and when I go on other forums I could say how great the Yaqin is  I like the XPA-2/USP-1 combo alot. But with my speakers, TT, etc. the Yaqin is a better match. |

To each their own I guess......how boring would that be if everything was off limits but Emotiva. I just started a thread to show off my new tube integrated. Haven't checked their main site today, but I don't think they offer a tube integrated  |
