·Lovely! I run a TD 145 through a McIntosh 1700.
I also have a TD165 as a backup turntable

·Done with the gateway drug and working your way up the food chain? Always starts with a 147, then a 166, then a 165 or 125….all roads lead to the TD-124
Hah my journey was different.
TD126
TERES Turntable project
TD124
MicroSeiki DQX500 for second system
Now the extras I picked up on the way
Pioneer PL518
JVC QL 7
TD147

··Color Commentator for the Hyperbole.Back in May, I purchased a Rotel RC1590MKii preamp to run with my Rotel RB1582 MKii amp and CM10’s. Recently I purchased/ installed a set Of Van Den Hul balanced XLR interconnects since both AMP and Pre offer them. The difference vs my AQ Evergreen RCAs was immediately apparent in terms of sound stage and dynamics. The CM10s have never sounded better. Before I dropped the cash, I did some research and found a lot of very polarized opinions for and against. I was able to get some very direct component specific advice from some engineering types that caused me to invest. So if you have gear that offers the XLR circuitry, go for it!

·I'm not convinced fancy speaker wire is gonna make a big difference in any setup. But I haven't read the 52 pages prior to this one so I might be walking into a den of lions with that opinion. I could probably solidify my downfall and say I use Dirac Live room EQ and a DSP phono preamp (with optical out for galvanic isolation) as well, even though I listen to a lot of vinyl. It's sacrilege all the way down. 😉

Well, until you hear the difference for yourself, you probably won't be convinced. I wasn't, until I was...by my ears.

I am on the record that anything makes a difference in sound reproduction. But the system has to be very high resolution (not necessarily the most musical system.
if you do not hear a difference, great for you as you save a lot of money, as long as you like your system.
Enjoy.

··This Space for RentI always appreciate that response. Sadly it often comes from people 50+ years old who have diminished hearing above 12kHz.
It's easy enough to test cables, and it's been done before.
