| The next best Tweak ??? Ozzy - In the last line, it seemed to me Parts Express was saying all electrolytic caps are NOT necessarily polar. Either way, non-polar or polar and properly connected - does it matter? | |
| The next best Tweak ??? Hi Folks - Was shopping on Parts Express for some caps. Saw some 10000uF but from the pix, not obvious how to tell poles. Submitted a question that got the following answer. Thought it might be helpful to post. Apparently not all caps are "polariz... | |

| Terrible/Inappopriate songs ... "Immigrant Song" on Led Zep III. Not a bad song - just doesn't fit the rest of the album (IMO). | |
| Help me find violin and cello related I was pleased to see Rushton's mention of Hindemith. Please give a listen to his, "Concerto for Violin and Orchestra" (1939). It is well represented on YouTube. Also, consider Ralph Vaughan Willams', "The Lark Ascending". | |
| Can I straighten an off-center twisted cantilever? Cdk84 - Yes. I understood it wasn't bent. Still, why worry? Just replace the whole front end, if possible. | |
| Can I straighten an off-center twisted cantilever? Cdk -I've no experience with such a repair. Can the Dyanvector stylus be replaced (my only experience is w/Shure carts where you can plug in a new stylus/cantilever assembly)?
