| Tube Amp Suggestions Didactically.No big deal here.... It's a simple question. Have you ever really heard the cary 805 monos? | |
| motor replacement dilema Hello Jameswei. Thank you kindly for your reply. The tourque issue is not really the problem here. Because the platter on the Melco is a larger diameter than standard....I don't think I would be able to get the correct platter speed with a vpi mot... | |
| Tube Amp Suggestions Didactically. Pardon me sir, I don't get it: are your ears painted on or what? Or perhaps this is some kind of puzzle?....Ahhhhhh...Now I get it.... a paint by numbers puzzle and I'm supposed to join all the lines together and paint over all the n... | |
