I have a gut feeling that that player sounds real nice.

This top-quality Benchmark cable features Canare Star-Quad Speaker Cable. Four heavy-duty 14 AWG stranded conductors are combined into two pairs arranged in a star-quad configuration. The combined conductors are equivalent to 11 AWG, but the star-quad configuration reduces magnetic radiation and interference by about 20 dB, making this cable superior to 2-conductor cables.

Can posters put a list of the gear along with the comments please? Saves us quoting the post inc pics again.
Benchmark recommend that the only speaker cable that can maintain the full potential of the amp is the Canare 4S11 Star Quad with the Speakon connectors.
Have you tried it ?
This is by far the most intereasting post thus far. What is it you, or perhaps your wife or daughter, do that means you've met both the queen and the pope?
Quiet a collection - dhow did you reach the current permuation?
If I may ask : how do you find your ES9038 pro DAC sound ?Recently finished building a Neurochrome Modulus-686 power amp and currently trying to decide whether I prefer the Neurochrome 8x2 preamp or DCG3 preamp, which are all in the pics. Amp duties are usually a Perreaux Eloquence 250i 40th Anniversary but we'll see how the 686 stacks up.
edit: should really list what there is: Garrard 401, Jelco 750 with Shuggie, Ortofon 2M Black / ZYX Yatra 100, Project Phono RS with Sigma22 Linear PS, Audiophonics RaspTouch with RPi3 + DigiOne + Linear PS, Perreaux Eloquence 250i 40th Anniversary with ES9038Pro DAC, DCG3 Pre-Amp, Neurochrome 8x2 Pre-Amp, Neurochrome 686 Power amp, Benchmark DAC2 HGC, Primare V25 CD player, Monitor Audio PL300, Sjostrom DCT03 DC Blocker.

I missed that recommendation!
and a SMSL M-400 DAC
My DAC is in a separate box with its own power supply and it’s a Rod rain Audio.The ES9038Pro DAC in the Perreaux is excellent, I'd struggle to tell the difference between it and the Benchmark DAC2 HGC. What product is your ES9038 Pro in?
Here also, what did you have before ?
