Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections):	Blues, Classic Rock, Alternative.
System Goals/Comments:	I want to upgrade my entire system to more of a high end system. I will start with the turntable; then an integrated Amp, and move on from there.
System Strengths:	Good sound-stage, good high frequency response.
System Weaknesses:	Turntable/Shure MP94E sounds great with headphones, but a little too warm thru speakers; like a blanket over the sound. Turntable/Ortofon 320U is more accurate, but too bright thru headphones; this setup sounds better thru speakers.
Video/HT System: Separate
