Thanks!
In fact I looked up more about the Esoteric and it's simply too big for my unit, no way round this; a larger unit isn't really on (WAF is an issue).
It's a good point about diminishing returns but I'm not over concerned about this. The system is good, highly resolving and transparent in a nice way with tonality and a natural sound. It clearly shows the benefits of upgrades to my vinyl front end, I appreciate these and I'm sure I'll appreciate a further improvement to CD and the chance to try SACD. I certainly appreciate the improvements that Argento interconnects have made; expensive but lovely, worth it to me.
I'm rationalising the cost of a possible DP-720 by working out the cost of my TT etc; the Teres would now cost almost £10K, the arm about £3K, cart about £2K; and the phono stage is equivalent to about £15K's worth. About £30K / $50K in all; the DP-720 looks decidedly cheap compared to that lot! :-)
