| MC cartridge? Terrific step adding an analog rig to your system, but I can't help but think your turntable is not in the same league as the rest of your gear. Hopefully you won't be offended by my observations. I'd consider selling the Marantz and finding somet... | |
| What to do when buyer claims sellers item broken? http://cgi.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cl.pl?misctunr&1034968130&2&3&4&This item is up for sale because of the EXACT same scenario. I suggested the buyer have it repaired locally and I would pay for the repairs needed, then I would ch... | |
| Top This C'mon guys, you left out the Stephen King of rock! Alice Cooper has to be front and center. What about "Halo of Flies" off the Killer album? "I Love the Dead" is a must. Personally, I have to have "Cold Ethyl" from Welcome to my Nightmare. May as ... | |
| Don Scott Specially Modified Marantz Tuner? Got,Don modified a Mitsubishi tuner for me recently and did a terrific job. The captive power cord was replaced with an IEC receptacle, the captive interconnect was replaced with quality RCA's, and he also installed a high-blendcontrol, getting ri... | |
| The Hives:Real Deal or just a tease??? Reminds me of my 12 year old son explaining to me how he likes "punk". I cued up the Sex Pistols and the Ramones and let him hear punk for himself. He informed me that was old grunge, punk was now and had nothing to the black things spinning aroun... | |
| Museatex str55's amps worth exploring? For what it's worth I met Ed many times (I sold semiconductors to Museatex) and he is not only a great guy but a very talented designer. Forward thinking and has a terrific imagination. A great guy to chat with but for whatever reason his stuff ne... | |

| Buying a used Oracle Delphi Mk_ ? Sean,I've only used the SME arm but in looking at the mounting plate it appears to accept pretty well anything. I'm not familiar with the ET or Clearaduio arms but I'd be quite surprised if thet didn't fit...may be work asking the arm manufacturer... | |

| Buying a used Oracle Delphi Mk_ ? I own a Delphi IV and can honestly say it would be the last component I'd consider selling. My baby sounds terrific and is stunning. I bought mine new many moons ago with the Oracle/SME345 arm and have used many quality pick-ups on it. An under-ap... | |
| Copy protection circa 1987 This letter mirrors my own feelings and I'm quite vocal about it, if you think stealing music is okay you may as well wander into an art gallery and help yourself to whatever is hanging on the walls. I've heard all the arguements for swapping musi... |
