My Apple never sounded better.

I have never heard the Tekton speakers, but everyone who I have read comment absolutely loves them. Apparently they are a huge bang for the audio buck.Congrats on a nice inexpensive system.

new amps and speaker drivers

Very nice looking system Chad. I bet it sounds as good as it looks. How do you like your AT ML150? AT seems to make some very good performing cartridges and the ML150 is one I have considered.

I recommend not messing around with homebrew fluids and go ahead and buy some RRL (Record Research Labs) fluid. It is the only cleaner that I am aware of that doesn't require rinsing. You will actu...
