    I do recognize now that my table is the weak link in my setup, but hopefully I can get the Pass set up to compensate a bit. I got it because I understand it has an extraordinarily low noise floor...

    To bad you're not closer. I have plenty of gear you could play with in your system.

    Maybe it's a good thing you are not... After the new Pass gear I am done(and likely dead) for a while.

    True but still it would be fun. Things like this custom Roksan Radius 5 turntable sitting here that doesn't get used.

    Hadn't thought about selling. I was referring to you living closer and being able to take it home and play with it.
