Hello.I just want to ask your opinion regarding Rogers LS5/9. I heard it from someone else's system and am curious on how it will work with my Naim NAP140. I'm also using a NAC72 and a Thorens TD126 with SME 3009S2.

Hello... those of you that are reading this, I'm wondering where I should direct my funds next? I have A CDX with napsc power supply & a 82 pre with a hicap power supply, I'm driving modified Epos Es11/12's on dedicated stands with a recapped 180 using all naim leads to include new replacement NAC A5. All the kit is placed on an Atacama equinox modular equipment, this is a recent addition & I have to say I'm very impressed with it. So where next?..... I'm split between the inevitable XPS for...
