Re: On the move
Thanks, Joe! Hope you can visit sometime. You'd be very surprised by what is on demonstration in the showrooms, some of which will be sold locally only. For example, Spiral Groove turntables.

Re: Aurender N10
No, the N100 is not available in all black. Aside from that as you point out, the sound quality of the N10 is substantially better, although the N100 outperforms a surprising number of competitors.

Re: The N100 Owners Thread
Scratching my head as to what if anything your dealer is doing to help. This is Customer Service 101 and how dealers earn their keep. If you are getting no help you should be complaining to Aurender.

Re: Recommendations for Tube Phonostage with XLR/balanced outputs
Unless I am mistaken Albert has been running single ended for a long time. And isn't Allnic single ended internally? Albert loves rolling tubes and gets good sound.

Re: Recommendations for Tube Phonostage with XLR/balanced outputs
I believe you are correct. Going through transformers to provide balanced outputs may not be advisable due to high frequency roll off. Better to stick with a truly differential balanced design.

I recently set up an A 90 on a VPI Avenger with two 12" 3D arms. Sounded pretty darn good. Funky stylus guard, though.
