Costliest Brainfart

Homeowner’s insurance…I’ll have to look into that.

Thanks.

fbgbill - you win the cigar, my friend.

Now, if one of you could come by and steal a broken tt, that'd be covered.  But then insurance would probably replace with another broken table so maybe I'll just suck it up.

This mishap will rank up there with cross-threading and torquing down a spark plug in a Nissan Z car because, well, "It's a sports car."  I'd replaced many plugs and worked on cars quite a bit when I had that brainfart.  

I think I'll hear the table slide off the rack and see it crash onto the floor for quite some time.  But maybe not.  F it.  $hit happens.  Life's too short to dwell on things that cannot be changed.

Cheers all,

Mamoru

Kingbr - one of the main reasons I messed around with the rack was to pull it out away from the wall more as I hated trying to manipulate all the cabling whenever I swapped preamps.  

I had listened to about five records with the Karat installed.  Probably not much more than 10 records total on the table (at least from me as I bought it used).

I’m not a vinyl only guy for sure.  98% of my listening is streaming, but I had a decent rig for when the urge to listen to a record hit, as I have several thousand LPs.  I’ll bring my old Thorens out for now.

elliott - some people act when in those situations while others just watch and grimace, it appears.

Thanks all for sharing your stories.

mariddock - I like your line of thinking.

Cheers, all.
