Considering this thread is in the "Carver" section of the forum it is a given that it is something Bob is making.  I think I know what it is.  So when are you expecting to have it at the shop?

I'm guessing new Carver speakers
I am confident that an SL-1200 is capable of outperforming turntables of much higher expense with minor modification.

I would say no, but you might be in the ball park.

I would guess no to this.  Though this would be cool to get a set of the new Bob designed speakers.

Huff, do you know something we all don't? If the Silver 7s are in the ball park, then it's gotta be Bob tube amplification. Whatever it is, it's gotta be new Carver something, and I am excited to see/hear what the audio madman has cooked up...

I am not sure, and Tom might be upset with me, but I think it will be an amp.  That is my guess based on the fact that Bob just listed a very pretty 305 watt tube amp on ebay a day or so ago.
