| Thorens TD 146 It's a good TT, but you will need a high compliance cartridge to match the low mass tonearm. The original TP11 arm was medium/high mass (had one on a TD165) and the TD11 version used on the 146 is half the effective mass of the original TD11. I'... | |
| 6H30 replacement Tomic: I auditioned the ARC/BAT 6922 VS 6h30 preamps in 2002 I think (10 years before your model was manufactured). This said, I preferred the older 12ax7 ARC based models to the (now old) 6922 based models. Most of those present @ the audition... | |

| Jimmy Two-Times is Back!!!!!!!!!!! I wanna double post without physically doing so. What's the trick? Is there a download/ap that I'm not privy to? I do not own a smart phone and am getting screwed out of the weekly "Smart & Final" specials because of such, but my remedy for... | |

| Does anyone know how to do a search for a component review on 6moons.com? Does anyone have tips on making it through an entire 6 Moons review for someone who's never been able to finish "Atlas Shrugged" either? DeKay | |
| 6H30 replacement Have you tried other input/12ax7 tubes? I’ve only used 12ax7’s in vintage line and phono stages, as far as HiFi goes, and for added warmth I usually ended up with Amperex or Mullard 12ax7 types over Telefunken. I much preferred the earlier (17mm... | |
| All In One CD Player and Speakers Since you are willing to go with one box + speakers look into Denon's line of mini systems. Used to be that Yamaha, Nakamichi and Denon made the best, but now only Denon still makes them. The Denon's recently went to backorder status @ the big o... | |
| All In One CD Player and Speakers Try to find a NIB Bose Wave (fine for a kitchen/what you describe). If you can go with small mini and/or flat wall speakers then look for a low mileage Linn Classik. DeKay | |
| starting equiment that ic cold from being shipped 3 days open/unwrapped just as a safety belt. The unknown is how much moisture is trapped inside the sealed package, thus my suggestion to open it up to air for such a long period of time. Maybe open for 24 hours, then placed in drier room that g... | |
