552DR ordered and LP12 upgrades

@Mike_S
Thank you
I’ve always followed the mantra of source first so didn’t want to compromise on what I might get later.
I’ve had a number of box combinations but I’ve found keeping it as simple as possible gets better results rather than thin spreading over a whole system.
I can’t imagine the Supernait 3 running out of steam in my living room and I really like the simplicity of the kudos speakers with very high quality but minimalist components.
My main source is a collection of records so after some time decided it was most pertinent to get it right or as good as I think from the start.
The system does sound much bigger than it looks.
I’ve found a bigger box count can sound more hi fi but stripping it back definitely made it much more musical and less fatiguing.
Hope this explains ok.

Install will be a week today thursday. Obviously pics and write up will follow.

I will potentially move Zoneripper off the racks and go down to 2 stacks.

Or will keep 3 stacks and lower everything by one shelf. Or have a fair few empty shelves and leave it as is.

With

For f@&(s sake don’t leave empty Fraim shelves. You won’t be able to sleep at night for thinking what could fill them

Well Mike here in Sydney I have the full LP12 ARO going into the SN3/HICAPDR

I’ve always been a source first person , not only does it sound great but it makes sense .

I’ve even had the LP12 going into the Nait 50 and that’s brilliant also

Yes, so am I. The 552/300 certainly could deserve a higher spec LP12, as long as it doesn’t loose it’s magical engagement by becoming analytical. Might risk a call to my dealer.
