| Technics SL-1200 MKII Bearing Problem I took it to a professional, and it's fixed, basically. If I balance the tonearm at zero, set the anti-skate to zero, and then pull the tonearm over to the spindle it still drifts back to the edge of the platter, but much more slowly now. I guess ... | |
| Technics SL-1200 MKII Bearing Problem I thought the anti-skate only pulls in one direction (away from the platter) to counteract the centripetal force of the rotating record? If this is the case, then it should never pull the arm back toward the platter, as it does when I move the arm... | |
| Technics SL-1200 MKII Bearing Problem After fiddling with it for a few hours, I've taken it to a repair shop. I'll let you know what the results are.Tvad - I have the anti-skate set to zero, and that's why the movement of the arm on its own is bothering me. It should float freely at z... | |

| GEM Dandy Record Cleaner - Has Anyone Tried It ? I finally got my act together and made a DIY version of the GEM Dandy Cleaner. For the $20 in supplies, why not.My first impression with this cleaning system is that it is very, very effective. As with any cleaning system, it won't bring a record ... | |
| Any bluegrass fans? If you don't already have the self-titled "Ricky Skaggs & Bruce Hornsby," you need to at least listen to it. I would also very highly recommend Tim O'Brien's "Cornbread Nation" and anything by Nickel Creek. Their album "Resons Why: The Very Be... | |
| Convert Flac to Wav - how to & HD space need? tmesselt, from the above posts it looks like the WAVs will be the exact same thing as the FLACs, but take up more space. You don't need to uncompress your FLACs, because your computer does that for you every time you use the FLAC. Leave the FLACs ... | |

| GEM Dandy Record Cleaner - Has Anyone Tried It ? kbamhi - I would be VERY interested to get an exact list of parts and detailed instructions about how you pieced it together. If you could do that, I think you would be the hero of this thread.Thanks!Dusty | |
| GEM Dandy Record Cleaner - Has Anyone Tried It ? So far nobody in the responses has tried this thing. I'm going to go out on a limb and buy one.
