Are the entry series cabs not produced in the UK?

Linked on previous page..

There's also the 50th anniversary limited edition (150 pairs made) SCM20ASL (non-towers but cabinet volume is the same as ASLT obviously) in gloss blue lacquer finish with Nappa leather for even (slightly) more. Looks lovely IMO. Add on top cost for good stands like Partington. Getting close to...

They are also slightly heavier - maybe it uses better quality amps + the cost of Super Linear driver? But still - dome mid and better bass extension is hard to ignore.

That's fair @ SONDEKNZ - I can hardly remember what I did last week so..

That's very unspecific considering how many suspended turntable models Thorens made (and many tonearm models too). :) Julian Vereker of Naim used the Phonosophie No.3 TT which was based around the TD3001. The last model based on this concept was the TD-350 I think though Thorens still make...

What makes an 80's spec LP12 better (or more musical) than same era leaf-spring Thorens' like TD320(TP90) / 321 / 2001(TP90) / 3001BC?

HD600 are a bit more forward in the (upper) midrange compared to HD650.

And hence why high-sensitivity speakers often got this down - they are more likely to be already maxed-out amp-wise?

Have a look at Schiit Midgard also.

They missed a trick if that platform isn't a wireless phone charger. I'm sure it sounds very good though.

How smart is it for the designer of the unit to advocate (on a public forum) a use-case that goes against the item description (DAC, HP-amp, pre-amp) and seems to void your warranty?

Any day now...
