Thanks guys. I was impressed listening to clearaudio ovation and thei top line mm. Great base and punch. But having psychological barriers with mm vs mc. Should I ignore the conventional wisdom?
One that doesn't get a lot of attention but is worth a listen or two. Impressed me when I heard it.

In fact, a lot of the new Luxman stuff impressed me including their Class A solid-state amplifier. The stereo amp (would like to hear the monoblocks) really sounded good into the Vivids and had some cajones.
new: VPI classic 3/VPI SDS/Lyra kleos
9k used will also get you a basis debut/graham phantom or SME 20/3 or spiral groove sg2 incl a used 2500 cart at half off, any of which id take over the set-up above.
What's the Best TT, arm and cartridge system for under 9k total?
