Very nice. Like that B&W photo. And, you are correct. The Kleos is superb.

VPI TNT III with SME V pickup arm ... an absolutely fabulous combination that has remained in my system as some other components have come and gone.

I run 3 tables spread over two systems. Vintage direct drive is a prevailing theme. The Denon reigns supreme, its' sound performance is like silk is to cloth. But meanwhile the Dual's automation is so convenient for times I'm feeling lazy or when entertaining tipsy guests; while the Sony serves admirably in a headphones only system located in a bedroom converted to an office. As I've come to appreciate there's a DD solution for all settings!

#1 Denon DP80 + 12" Reed 3P arm + Kiseki PurpleHeart NS
#2 Dual 721 + Dynavector 17D3
#3 Sony PSX4 + Pickering XV-15/625E

You carry the DD banner quite proudly and rightly so. Very nice.
