If so, and you could swing the Scoutmaster rather than the Marantz, that would be an option to consider.

Hi Rich,

Yes that is exactly what ran through my head as well. I was considering the VPI Aries 3, but in light of my Revolver problems, the Scout and/or Scoutmaster is now a serious candidate as well. The Aries 3 is not in my budget today unfortunately, unless I decide to forego a TT all together for the next 6 months or so. And even then, it may be a little rich for me.

The dealer I'm auditioning the Marantz at is also a VPI dealer, so I'm hoping to have a chance to listen to it as well.

You kinda read my mind on that one Rich!
