Description

After many years of looking and 50 years in, I found and bought a beautiful Woodsong Garrard 301 TT. It inspired a complete remake of my system. I upgraded my entire system to match the beauty and quality of the Woodsong. 
I was so focused on a 301 since my friend, record producer and record company owner the legendary Winston Ma, had so impressed me that he used his 301 as the source for one on his upscale Gold CDs!
And since Covid, my wife and I have not been doing any traveling. In 2019 we went on 3 cruises. So I got the OK to spend the money on my system and spend 3-4 hours daily listening to vinyl. It is at the center of my retirement.
I now feel that I have a destination rig well beyond any I have lived with or experienced.
$150K gear that sounds like it.

Thanks John,
The Tetra 606s are the most real sounding speakers I have ever heard.
And I can’t rave enough about Townshend Seismic Podiums. The dramatically raised the level of my system. It is amazing how now my records are now not just good but shockingly good!

Hi Jim,
Thanks for the comment.
Looks like you are a Vandy guy.
Really admire your MK 7 system. Understand those amps are the ultimate way to power those speakers.
Do you have any vibration control under the speakers?
Recommended by many on the Forum, I recently got Townshend Podiums under mine. Wow, the improvement in SQ is as much or more than any component. Night and day!

Cheers,
Mik
