The winner is........a 20+ year old Mitsubishi LT-30. But I do believe the
AMC took second on points. I still think the Arcam brings a quality to
solo instruments and voices that the AMC does not. But when things get
busy, the consensus was the Arcam just lacks rythym. Muckie was a term oft
mentioned. The thing don't boogie, it can't dance, it just sings.

I get to try a Citation 1 and 2 so perhaps there is hope yet. If that
works out, I'll again be exploring suitable new carts. Meantime, I think
I'll turn my attention to room treatments. Something like a homebrew
Soundlabs Sallie.
