No. I mean from cold out of the box is good but 72 hours is makes huge difference. Not some difference. He says full break in takes about a week which for me is tomorrow night.

I heard that supplies are drying up so you better act quickly.
I heard through a Wharfedale dealer that they had a shit tonne of stock stolen from a storage warehouse in November which will lead to shortages this year but doesn’t necessary indicate that any models are going out of production.

Right on. Excited to hear that! I'll find a couple records to play multiple different days to catch the difference.

Not helping! Although probably going to pull the trigger soon anyway

Yeah when I bought mine I really wanted to do click and collect on the same day so I rang the local that stocks Wharfedale. He said he had none in stock but that he’d take an order but because of that to beware that I might have to wait a while for new ones to be made in China and delivered to Wharfedale in the U.K. for them to distribute. As it turns out they arrived only a fortnight later but it could potentially lead to difficulties on some models until they rebuild their warehouse stock.

Yeah, selling my parents house and got a nice offer over asking. Waiting to get a little farther into it to make sure, but I think it's a realistic purchase soon. Now, about the amp...

And then stay FAR AWAY from this thread for at least a year or more.
And that other thread too!

I’d kinda figure out how much you want to spend on an amp that’s a big enough upgrade and is worthy of the speakers and live with the marantz until that’s a reality/been saved for than just jumping in for the first upgrade at the earliest point.

I kinda lean that way, that Primaluna looks amazing, and my lady is cool with me managing the bonus room in the new place. I'd like it to be good to go soon after moving in in April.

I'm thinking if I have the new preamp and speakers at my current place with the Marantz, it gives me some time to evaluate.
Yeah definitely. You’re better taking your time and figuring out the end goal. Even if it’s an expensive one waiting, saving and getting there in one is a cheaper route, if realistic, than going in increments

Uh oh. Tubes.
I gotta go.
I gotta go.
With what @Matt M has purchased and has ideas on, he won’t need or want to upgrade. But he should still hang here because we like him.
Ohhh. Tooobbbzzzz!
