| Who said tape doesnt last :^) Blank high-quality cassette tape (Maxell) and open-reel (aka reel to reel) are available from Amazon. Sadly, it is difficult to find new tape decks but Nakamichi, TEAC and Pyle are still making new cassette decks. Balfinger, Metaxas and Thorens ma... | |
| In need of a GOOD 3:1/4:1 passive input selector Another thing I did (which I failed to elaborate), I utilized the Bryston's two switched outlets (and soon 3rd once I fix the BIC). I think that was the biggest fix that was, in all actuality, the simplest fix. Common ground between the turntables... | |
| In need of a GOOD 3:1/4:1 passive input selector More good news on this front. I started looking "behind the curtain" if you will. While the last vestige of noise was rattling my brain, I shifted one of my power cables and the hum went away. Hmmmm... After contemplating things a moment, a slas... | |

| Kappa 6 midrange replacement @ervikingo Thank you for the suggestion but I dumped facebook years ago. I refuse to patronize Meta/zuckerberg. That being said, I looked at American Vintage and they appear to be a shadow of what they used to be. @erik_squires I spoke with the p... | |
| Kappa 6 midrange replacement @Erik I looked into the simplyspeakers replacements. I am not sure how they compare to the Millersound replacement (which is taking my current meds and re-doming them). Both are 4 ohm loads (resistive). But no other data on the overall freq respon... | |

| Help with adding turntable to my room...cartridge advice for Rega P6 I am going to piss everyone off:Fluance rt85 belt-drive with a Denon DL-103 cart.
