A night of vinyl was a nice change of pace.
I didn't know you added the Lingo until I got there. Just curious, did that necessitate changing the motor in the LP12 too or just the Valhalla board? Also, did you do the upgrade yourself or was an LP12 techie needed? The Lingo (or Naim Armaggedon) is something I've thought about for my LP12 as well, but the cost factor always kept me from making that jump. Someday???
I don't know if those were the "Aluminata" (spelling?) version of JPS Labs speaker cables, but all I can say is...
Wow! It's not that the other speaker cables in/out of your system were unpleasant by any means, but the JPS cables were a noticable improvement within the first three notes!
Once again (for me at least) it unfortunately
comes down to $$$. Champagne taste
on a Coors budget!
