I decided to perform an upgrade for my System and Jack was very helpful in explaining various options for the cartridge and phono stage (2 items I wanted to change). I wanted to get next level "Audio Note" devices and Audiobarn had many options to offer. Also, it was a very pleasant surprise that I was offered a trade in for my old phono stage. Currently my setup is the following: Speakers - JBL 4429, Turntable - Nottingham Analogue Spacedeck +12" Space Anna tonearm. Cartridge IQ3 by Audio Note, Amplifier - Audio Note Soro Phono PP, Phone Stage - Audio Note M1 RIAA.
