| This Sounds Like A Pretty Good Deal -- Opinions? @mulveling @stereo5 Thanks for your input. He also has an MA-230 and MA-5100 for good prices, but I was happy with what I got! | |
| This Sounds Like A Pretty Good Deal -- Opinions? Thanks to all who gave input. I did buy buy both pieces. I had checked ahead of time about the work. It was done by a shop that specializes in McIntosh gear, and they replaced the electrolytic power caps and the coupling caps, and brought both ... | |
| DIY Steampunk Tube Amplifier, feedback please :) I think the design is really slick. The tubes on top with the copper tubing remind me of an engine on a Funny Car -- cool concept. I'd like to see more tubes on each side to really pull off an engine look. Congratulations. | |
| Why is it that every time, lately, that I'm interested in a thread... Give it time, @goofyfoot, you and I are the only nuts up posting at 3:00 a.m.!! 😂 Have a great weekend, my friend. | |
| Why is it that every time, lately, that I'm interested in a thread... As long as you enjoy living your life in an Echo Chamber, @goofyfoot, Audiogon is and will continue to be the place for you to post and debate, err, scratch that, "debate" implies a differing opinion which may lead to (shudder) disputing conversat... | |
| Interesting situation! Do we need this.... @rbertalotto -- Your accidental discovery highlights what I've been preaching to anyone that'll listen since purchasing my Fluance RT-85 Turntable in 2018. That is....Fluance gear punches WAY ABOVE its weight class and price point. Absolutely em... | |
| Why is it that every time, lately, that I'm interested in a thread... The rising incidents of "Thread Removed By Moderator" has also become a huge annoyance to me regarding Audiogon's discussion forum. With each passing week, it appears more and more to me that Audiogon has relocated to Pyongyang. | |
| Why is it that every time, lately, that I'm interested in a thread... @bigtwin -- Perfect summation. I tip my "Miller Lite" tall-boy in your honor. 😎 | |
| Sad to hear the good people at Timbernation had a fire (and no insurance). @stereo5 -- Agree 1 Million Percent I retired at age 55 after a fantastic 30-year career owning an Insurance and Financial Services corporation. I met some wonderful people over the years, and took pride in knowing my efforts helped thousand... | |
| Advice for a new analog system @edgyhassle Thanks, man. I've found one can put together an end-game vinyl system without spending the kind of money you would spend on an automobile. I really like the Rega P8 and P10 -- insanely good turntables. | |
| Advice for a new analog system @ftrot You have an amazing core system right now, and I'd love to be in your position as you go on your vinyl journey. You have gotten some great advice from Members who are much more knowledgeable than myself -- all I can add is the recomme... | |
| Please tell me the wait will be work it......my rack @thyname, Yep...I'm old! And the same "uplifting" wishes for you in 2023 🤘😎🤘 | |
| Please tell me the wait will be work it......my rack @thyname "I personally implied genitals (I.e male dick)" I wish I were that clever! 😂 Alas, that it not at all what I meant when I said "wooden sound". I was just making a play on words since I had described using 2 x 4 wooden planks... | |
| Please tell me the wait will be work it......my rack Admin, Can you private message me and tell me what profanity was used? I have no recollection of using any profanity in the post. I'd seriously like to know what was removed. If I slipped up and indeed used profanity, I am truly sorry and ... | |
| Speakers that are good with tubes In my humble opinion, I can't ever picture myself pushing Klipsch speakers with anything OTHER than tube amplification -- to me that combination is just a match made in heaven. I am not that familiar with a wide variety of horn speakers, but musi... |
