Another Cart opinion thread....
Not really out of the box, just trying to help save someone from wasting a bunch of money based on my own experience.  You can usually pick up used Music Hall 5.X and 7.X for around $400-$600 for the 5.x and $700-$900 for the 7.X and probably find...

Here's a different idea.  Don't invest any money in that table.  If you're not happy with the way it sounds now, buy a better turntable.I started out with a Music Hall 2.2, added a the speed box, put on an acrylic platter, and put a couple of bett...

Listening to my other MOFI (single 33 RPM disc) Alan Parsons I Robot. 
Need to replace my Rotel RMB-1095 . suggestions pls
I'd look into getting the Rotel repaired.  If it's not possible or too expensive, I'd take a look at the Emotiva line of amplifiers.  I had a RMB-1095 and still have an Emotiva XPA-5 Gen II.  Both are fine for home theater and I'd describe them as...

I have to admit it confused me too.  When I saw the "spinning" topic I immediately thought of vinyl, and "don't we already have a thread for that?".  "Streaming" seems like a better descriptor. 
Shelter 501 mkii then what now
I've had retips done by both Andy Kim and Soundsmith.  I was happy with both, but liked using Andy a little better because he was local (at the time) and got the job done pretty quickly.  Perhaps if I had a new copy of the same cartridge with the ... 
Please find the excuses for me not to buy Stax 009S headphone
I've bought most of my headphones "pre-owned" so most were already burned in.  Of the new ones I've bought, my Massdrop Fostex T-XO didn't sound very good at first.  I didn't keep track of the time, but after maybe 30-40 hours, they sounded much b... 
Rec Out to Headphone Amp
Yes.  I used the Tape Out on my Modwright LS-100 and Record Out on my AR LS-26. 
I am the most lucky guy
@shkong78  I have a number of friends that have moved to Arizona over the last few years.  I scratch my head in wonder.  That type of heat is not for me.I have some great sounding headphones, my LCD-4 are my favorites and sound as good or better t... 
I am the most lucky guy
I just went outside to let the dog out and it is starting to sprinkle. It’s a nice 75 degrees though here in Olympia, so I’m not going to complain. I’d rather have 75 than 90’s.I recently had A/C installed and haven't really needed it, other than ...

Your last concert was to see who and when?
@reubent She did have a stand on stage, I assume it was lyrics.

The Alan Parsons Project- I Robot - MFSL.  I've heard I Robot many times, but the MOFI is fantastic!
