| Dynavector XX Mk II Jmcgrogam2, don't even think about playing around with loading untill the cart has between 50-100 hours of break-in. The recessed highs will open up once the cart breaks in. | |
| What kind of power cord comes with expensive gear My amp came with a 5 foot AC cable. I immediately replaced it as I needed 6 feet. | |
| Any Alice Cooper fans? Big fan of Alice Cooper and an average fan of his music. Had an opportunity around 15 years ago to play a round of golf with AC...super interesting person and very nice guy. | |

| It's all over now, baby blue. Or is it not? Anchor all shelving to the wall studs to prevent the CD/Vinyl rack from being pulled down. If you have speaker grills, put them on. Exposed drivers are like magnets for toddlers. Congratulations, the fun has only started! | |
