UPDATE: Grado thrashes Stanton

Okay, just did Grado Prestige Silver in Dual 704 with stock cables on Arcici isolation cones vs Stanton 400 V3 in Pioneer PL-15D II with Cardas cables on Arcici isolation cones. In a nutshell, the Grado is liquid, refined, warm, and smooth with a laid-back character. The Stanton is bombastic with hug bass, but destroys the individual tonality of each instrument and it sounds like plastic compared to the Grado. Also, in comparison to the Grado...the Stanton is a shriek box. Up next.....

Will smack off bottom of United Audio plinth to accommodate Cardas cables in Dual table. Will mount Stanton in 2nd Dual headshell and the shootout will continue with a final conclusive analysis.
