How often, and how, do you clean your stylus?
Before every listening session of 1-3 LP's.  
Record player sounds out of tune and "wavy"
The most likely cause is an old stretched belt.  Cheap fix--if you can fined a replacement of the correct size.  
Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers
@mbmi  Exactly.  I just posted the same thought in another thread (although went with $3-10k).  The Double Impacts are the speaker that put Tekton on the map.  I have said this before--the value on the end product is HUGE and maybe unsurpassed in... 
Tekton Double Impacts
Still have my DI’s and love them more than ever. No desire to "upgrade". I would say the true value point of Tekton is between $3-10k. Voiced beautifully. Seamless integration of so many drivers. Great imaging. Dynamic.  Easy to drive. Love the fa... 
supra sword excalibur speaker cable
As the OP stated, he is looking at a used pair of cables, so the figures you noted are a bit misleading. I have used Supra cables for years and think they are neutral high value cables.  I have no idea how the Swords compare.  In the end, you rea... 
Marantz SA10 sacd player
I am quite sure you could pick up a replacement traverse assembly (transport) via Encompass (if that is the problem).  You just need to locate a competent technician to help out.  Please let us know how this turns out and don't give up on that gre... 
how to fix a CD player
Once had an old Rotel CD player that would quit tracking.  It had a Phillips swing arm transport with a pivot bearing that went dry.  One drop of transmission fluid fixed it.  Make sure the grease you pick is not too heavy and plastic compatible.   
Omega Speakers Turnaround Time
@toudou   If you are thinking of purchasing a pair I can tell you that Louis is is fully trustworthy but he is slow.  Expect a wait.  My pair took a couple of months longer than quoted--but they were worth the wait.  He did a beautiful job on a cu... 
The receiver was my intro to HiFi! What say you?
The journey for me began with a modest but blue is beautiful Pioneer SX-636 driving a pair of Electrovoice Interface B's.  Could have done worse as a 17 year old kid.  
A GOOD dry record cleaning device
  @larryincmh  +1  I have done exactly the same thing for decades.  This brush actually pics up dust off the record.  Single most cost effective brush out there.  Can't believe this has not been resurrected.    
Omega Speaker Set up questions
@ptrck887   Ah, may be placement then.  Mine are in a second system where they need to be within two feet of the front wall.  
Bedini Amplifiers - two different builds/layouts of the same model amp?
So how do they sound relative to each other?  
Omega Speaker Set up questions
My Omega Super monitor 7's are are very full and balanced--nothing thin or tinny about them coupled to a Ray 6L6 SE amp. Quite the contrary.  Your problem lies elsewhere.  
Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers
Somehow, on this Good Friday, this discussion (along with others) all of a sudden seems like a  ridiculously trivial endeavor. Take a break.  
Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers
@rbstehno  "Plus there were many posts by the tekton group on agon that claimed their tektons were better than the $1M Wilson’s" Please, make a list of all the "MANY" Tekton owners who have made this claim. You can start by reviewing all the 5,6...
