Glad your happy with your speakers, just a bit surprised. Could be because planar fans I met tend to be a bit rabid. I actually like planars for anything but bass. What I don't like is a lot of the owners.
Its what I call the BMW 3series syndrome: Nice cars, just don't wanna be associated with their owners!
I really haven't got a problem with Pass Labs products, one of the few hifi companies I've got any time for! Meanwhile heres (hopefully) a picture of the EMT I'm on about. If they are too big and you'd like to improve on your Technics 1200 get hold of a Technics SP10.
The one thing I don't get is the toe-tapping reference: In my experience toe-tapping is a result of a good tune, never ever the result of good reproduction! A good song will make your toes tap even if it comes out of the shoddiest mono transistor radio.
