Good to know this. Is there a good alternative to Pro-Ject VC-S2 that is similarly priced ie. something affordable? Will the new Okki Nokki One we worth considering?

What brand are the IEC and wall plug? Thanks.

Sorry to hijack this any further. What do you replace a NAD M51 if you want to buy new? Denafrips Ares II? Chord Qutest? Something from Schiit? Or is NAD M51 comparable to new DACs and further buying as DAC for a few more years?

My thinking was to play a long game. Could have gone P8 with a better cartridge but just wanted the P10 with the ceramic platter and especially RB3000 tonearm. Phono stage is MM only hence requirement for SUT to go MC.

My P10 is still sitting in a box. It's been about a month or so since purchased. Previously owned P25 then P7 and now P10. Had both P25 and P7 for about 10-12 years respectively.

Sorry to hijack this thread, but if anyone is interested I am selling DL-103R with Midas body and ESC upgrade.

*** PRICE DROP - From $525 to $475 ***

I want to buy a Chord Qutest as well. They seem to be a sought after.

Damn. It’s $140 for a new lid in NZ. Everything is cheaper in Aus. ?
