Your last concert was to see who and when? Los Lobos last week. Had seats front row center in a relatively small venue, the Washington Center for the Performing Arts in Olympia. They played a set of traditional Mexican songs using a variety of stringed instruments that I was not familiar... | |
Cartridge Recommendations I have a Hana SL and a Nagaoka MP-500 (the top of the line). I haven't tried them both on the same table, but the Hana is a favorite for me and compares nicely with some other higher end MC carts I have. | |
What are you streaming tonight? Chick Corea - Trilogy 2, Qobuz | |
So many great golden era DD tables out there, what do you recommend for $1000? I just saw that Echo Audio in Portland just got a JVC QL-Y66F in. $425. | |

tube recommendations for audio research LS-16? I don't have a specific recommendation, other than to just email Brent Jesse and let him know the kind of sound you're after and your budget. | |
Cordless subwoofers? Nothing I can detect. I'm running two Rythmik F25s and two SVS SB13 Ultras. One of each is wireless. | |
So many great golden era DD tables out there, what do you recommend for $1000? Does the Technics SL-1200 MKII count in this discussion? I've been wanting to try one and found one that doesn't look like it's done DJ duty and has some KAB upgrades at a reasonable price. I should have it next week. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @tomic601 I enjoy this thread a lot. Everyone seems to leave their ego at the door. This thread gives me ideas about what to check out next or reminds to pull something out of the bins that I haven't listened to in a while. |
