Whats on your turntable tonight?
More dust than a month ago.  
another rookie question - preamp or or power amp
grislybutter OP: If looking for an amp only, take a look at a Vintage Denon POA 2200, if you can find one or an Adcom GFA 555.  They are around your price range used and in a different (higher) league than that Parasound. No offense to you or anyo... 
another rookie question - preamp or or power amp
At your budget, I would get these: Kenwood Basic M1 Stereo Power Amplifier and Kenwood Basic C1 Stereo Pre Amp SET | eBay I owned them when they first came out in the 80’s and doubt that you’ll find a better sounding combination at that price. Th... 
Do you adjust your subwoofer
No, because I don’t use the same system/s for both music and movies (different rooms). Once I set subwoofers to my liking, I leave them alone regardless of what they are playing. If I can tell the origin of the sound coming from a sub, then it’s t...

What is the most FUN pair of speakers you've ever had and why?
shtinkydog OP: No, it was at a casino in Palm Springs, CA.  They have them positioned throughout the outdoor covered walkways.  I've only been to Vegas a couple of times.  I have a cousin there.  I plan to go for New Years.

How good is good enough?
Without going into dollar amounts, there is a limit on what I will spend on "anything". Just because I could afford something doesn’t mean that I will buy it. The cost limit applies more to some of my countless hobbies and less to others, but appl... 
What is the most FUN pair of speakers you've ever had and why?
shtinkydog OP: Thank you for the suggestion.  I have tried some pretty decent JBL outdoor speakers (control series) and doubt that those Dayton Audio will top them.  I want something that sound as good or better than the Elac.  I heard some very n... 
Peformance at price point for speakers manufactured in China?
I don’t know that there is an exact dollar amount to your question from users in a forum such as this. That would be a question for the company that makes the speaker or for someone in the industry, with experience both in China and the country in... 
New TV With an Unknown Audio Out Jack?
You don’t have a toss link cable laying around to see if it fits, or the manual or model # of the new TV to see what type it is?    
Why are these called 5 way binding posts? I count four!
It should be a six way if you include soldering 😉  
What say you?
Serious folks!  I liked the part where he was asked if his system would play through an earthquake.  His affirmative reply/ expression was so serious and "priceless"!  I wonder if he'd let my cat ride on his turntable?  Thank you for the video!  
New TV With an Unknown Audio Out Jack?
I can't think of another type of connection that could be other than toss link. Strange that it doesn't have a cover though. There are cheap converters that you can buy that will convert HDMI to RCA though.
