By the way, yesterday at the Stereophile show, I listened to about 20
LPs in various rooms, and there was not a "click" or "pop" to be heard.
Someone around here said to me once that this is impossible and that I
don't hear the pops due to "hearing damage". lol

Did you make it to the MBL room? I was planning to go but have to
prep the house for
company next week end.

The MBL room happened to be the first one I heard. Very wonderful
sound, IMO. Certainly among the best I've ever heard.

Could you describe the setup? Did you hear the 101 E's?
Come on give it up, don't hold back.

Yep, the 101 E, and MBL's top of the line electronics, including their
new transport. Also playing was an SME turntable with SME arm and Lyra
cartridge. The sound was truly amazing. Big, ballsy, while at the same
time delicate and detailed. I heard stuff on the famous Reiner "Night
on Bald Mountain" RCA recording that I had never heard before. The bass
rocks your socks. The timbres were the most true of any system that I
can recall. I won't say what was the "best system" at the show, because
all of the rooms are different, etc. But I was most impressed by this
system.
