Yes, I like the Budgie a lot. However, it is off line now. The cartridge I'm using (SoundSmith SMM-4 in the B&O RX-2) is only about 2.2 mv output and the Budgie only has about 38 dB gain. I have a SS phono preamp which can be configured for 30, 40, 48 or 60 dB gain and the 48 dB setting is just right for the B&O cartridge. When I get another TT, I'll get back to the Budgie.
While I think the highs on the Elac are its weak point (about the only weak point, IMHO), I don't know if they are rolled off, just not up to the stellar stuff going on below.
