| Fairchild 440 w/Pritchard Arm - Worth restoring? Norman, thanks for posting! I checked this for a couple of days after posting, but saw no replies then forgot about it. I was pleased to jump back on today and see a reply! Yes, the turntable does have the gimbal Pritchard arm. It is missing the c... | |
| New Theater Room Help Thanks for the input folks. A little more insight on the room. I do have a recessed area built into one wall where all my equipment will be. This area will be accessed from behind, so all cables will be fed in from an adjoining storage room. This ... | |
| New Theater Room Help Stewart,Thanks for the very thoughtful response. I need to spend a little time digesting everything you commented upon. I know I'll have some questions as I start laying things out, so I appreciate the offer to check back. I'm off to the inlaws fo... | |
| $6-7k to Spend on Turntable Jfrech, I don't know yet! I just picked it up over the weekend, and my ARC VT-200 is still in the shop. The deck is definately mint, just as Johan said. I guess he only had it for less than a year. It was very well taken care of. It may be a coupl... | |
| $6-7k to Spend on Turntable Well gang, I pulled the trigger today. I purchased an SME 20/2 from a fellow audiogon member this evening. I have done more reading on turntables the last couple of days than I have in years. Most of it spurred by your suggestions. I know many of ... | |

| $6-7k to Spend on Turntable Yes, I replaced the belt, but I still have issues with the motor turning too fast. 33 1/3 is very close to 45 rpm, but it also slows down below 33 1/3. It won't maintain a constant speed at all. I've been wanting to upgrade for some time anyway, s... | |
| Amp for ARC SP8 and Final 0.4 Electrostatics Hi Hi_hifi,Actually, I had spotted a couple on Audiogon prior to putting out the posting. One of the postings on Audiogon was from a guy locally, paul99. We exchanged a bunch of emails and phone calls, and he agreed to let me take the amp home and... | |
| Amp for ARC SP8 and Final 0.4 Electrostatics Thanks Hi_hifi,I did go ahead and get a VT200. I was a little disappointed I didn't get more of a response from the forum, but I was able to talk to several folks off line about using the unbalanced inputs. In the end, I am extremely pleased with ... |
