Thinking of selling my Teres


Hey Guys, I know it's been a while since I posted anything here, but i have been watching!! Since my wife and I split up I've had the upgrade bug big time. I sold the AN CD2, and the home theater stuff is going now. Actually, I'm thinking about getting rid of it all and starting over again.

I guess my question is will I end up kicking myself if I get rid of the Teres? I have a ton of time in building it, and it will always be very special to me. But, like all things I feel it's time for a change. I've also thought about building a new platter for it, maybe the new motor, then going from there.

Getting rid of the rest of the system doesn't bother me in the least. but I have to tell ya, this Teres dilemma is a much harder decision that getting rid of my wife.

Help me out guys, start over or upgrade it? One thing I know for sure is some of the most enjoyable audio conversations I've ever had came from this forum during the construction of the Teres. Man do I miss that!

Joe,

Keep the Teres. Theres some part of you there when you finished the build. Your ingenuity, your passion, your style.

FWIW, just in case you are wondering or tempted about the "idler" revolution, let me tell you my opinion. I have a Garrard 301, Thorens 124 MKI and MKII and yes they are good. But keep the Teres! It is, in its own way, special! Believe me, you will regret selling it.

regards,

Abe
