The immediate difference between the 10.1 and 6.1 is the size. The platform for the 10.1 alone is heavier than the entire 6.1 deck. With the platform, the 10.1 is around 60lbs. The build quality is terrific.
In terms of performance, the 10.1 is great. Open, spacious, coherent, focused, accurate, and great dynamics. Really great sound quality.
I recently left the B&W & Rotel club in favor of Sonus faber & McIntosh, and I feel this new turntable breaths new life into everything. On to new beginnings.A camera, passport, good music, good food and good company is all I need.- Bottom

I have anxiously been waiting to hear what replaced your previous equipment.
I have always had a soft spot for Sonus Farber. AFA the TT is concerned, my late friend Rod’s system includes an RPM 9.1. Based on the many hours I have spent listening to it, I think you will be pleased.
Enjoy, my friend!- Bottom

What's your take on the differences between your previous gear and the current set-up? The few times I've gotten to hear jazz on Mc gear it seemed like a good pairing.
Oh, and it is the Sonus faber Cremona M. Unfortunately, it's a bit too much speaker for my modest sized NYC living room. The dealer did advise me that I would be better off with bookshelves, but I didn't listen. He was right. Waiting for Cremona Auditor Ms now.A camera, passport, good music, good food and good company is all I need.- Bottom

The only floorstanders that would not dominate the room would be something from Totem or Vienna Acoustics. Totem is out. Something like the new Symphony Edition version of the Beethoven Baby Grand from Vienna Acoustics is still a possibility, since it goes down lower than the Cremona Auditor M, but is not a giant sized speaker. These are the compromises I must make to live in NYC. I cannot have gigantic speakers.A camera, passport, good music, good food and good company is all I need.- Bottom

Almost had an accident with my turntable. My 4 yr old nephew was visiting from Chicago. I turned around for a minute, and I saw him trying to put cookies on the platter. The poor child thought it was a giant placemat or plate.A camera, passport, good music, good food and good company is all I need.- Bottom

In my experience, I have found the sound quality of Chips Ahoy! to be quite wanting. Same with Girl Scout Cookies & Oreo.
Nilla Wafers however are Very consistent, though not near the best with regards to dynamic range.
Thus far, in the humble opinion of this long-time audio hobbiest, the only thing better sounding than the Moon Pie brand is anything that comes from Grandmother’s Recipe Box.
As always, JMHO YMMV- Bottom

Of course, ‘Sweets’ are tilted a bit towards the adolescent end of the sensory spectrum. And most aficionados crave the true ‘Manna’ of media. In this regard, I must mention an exemplary example I have been most fortunate to discover in my own backyard. It is authentic, hand baked-to-order on wood-fired stone hearth, Libyan style Naan from a local purveyor, Salem's Market & Grill.
If only they could get the spindle hole perfectly centered every time.Last edited by wkhanna; 13 August 2012, 19:35 Monday.- Bottom
