| Whats on your turntable tonight? @mammothguy54 I have the original Joel, but mine isn’t anywhere near mint, as I played it so much ‘back in the day’. But, even though I played it a lot, yes, even on lesser equipment, I was always disappointed in the SQ. You can blame some of that... | |
| Audio deals you bought that seem impossible for the price? To date?Has to be my current Vandersteen 2CE Sigs. Bought them for $625 in great condition with original boxes.

| Whats on your turntable tonight? @noromance No no 😁…..$35 off his $245 asking price w/shipping. So, $210 with shipping. Yea. That would have been a heck of deal for $35. Ha!Still, not a bad a deal on smooth plate Telefunken’s. Just because they are rebranded. I’m not going to be ... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @noromance He accepted -$35 for the set. Ordered and done. | |

| 2.1 to 5.2 (Vandersteen 2C) @erik_squires I used 2 channel stereo for my TV for years, and although what you say may be correct, and may work, for those as I who refuse to put their TV right smack in the middle between our ‘front speakers’, a center channel speaker is a must... | |
| 2.1 to 5.2 (Vandersteen 2C) Vandersteen makes a center channel (actually 3). I also have 2CE Sigs. I thought about the Vandersteen as my center, but it is a bit of an awkward size for my set-up, so finally went with an Elac Debut 2 center, (after a few others), bought it use... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? From my haul of used LP’s I recieved last week, I’ve been saving this for near last. Incredible condition, the LP’s look as if they were barely played. Paid more for this than I usually do for old sets, but think it was worth it.Amadeus Quartett :... |
