There is a KZbin showing that every clear audio moving magnet can put a shaved audio technical stylus in so you wouldn’t get the same with the charisma, but you could still pop a tip in there on the underside really easily and get a fair amount of that performance backor else I’ll buy the charisma from you broken lol and do it myself😊

@gerardopadilla4393 Yea, that was my very first try while filming at the same time. But I absolutely love this machine and the build quality as well. I always buy new albums, and before spinning, I would always clean first. This Pro-Ject VC-S3 cleaner works wonders!

I have like 2000 records but I never clean them. Only the really dirty/noisy ones. over my 15 years of record collecting ive cleaned only about 30 or 40 records. Thats why i never bought a cleaning machine. I dont mind slight noise. Even in audiophile records. Guess im not picky about that.

Congrats on this TT! I still Have the Marantz. May I please have your advice. I am a newbie and have a tough time getting real world answers. If you still had Marantz and wanted to upgrade the Virtuoso 1 cartridge, what would you upgrade to? I would like it to be not over 1000.00. I want an upgrade, not a venture into a possible nee TT all together. Was the CA Performer 2 a significant sound quality upgrade? How about Ortofon Bronze? What's your pick to upgrade my existing Virtuoso 1 cartridge?

Wow, I don’t know how you fit everything in there. Obviously, this is very high-end. Real estate is at a premium and it’s a miracle you fit all that in there😮. I think most people would be fine with a 3.1 or 5.1 there. For Atmos and rears folks could do 6 ceiling speakers that are same color as ceiling (no treatments). A white SVS 3000 Micro or KEF KF92 would save some space along with a wireless transmitter in the rear. New cabinet to hide electronics. NAD 7 channel amp is a bit overkill except for LR which are very high end and need the best power. But it’s an amazing amp but so is the 8015. Obviously you wanted the best and you got 2 of them for separates. And the LCR are top of the line and look amazing. I’d go light on the vinyl cabinets and over the TV and look at different window treatments.
