The panic selling of tube audio had begun.
I was wondering if Russian tubes would get scarce for awhile. I checked a couple websites and sure enough the USA sites are either out of stock or jacked up the prices. Prices from the German tube stores are still normal and in stock. My GoldenTub... 
Most beautiful turntable under $5k
I love the elegant rosewood looks of the Denon and Victor/JVC direct drive decks of the 70s and 80s  
What is it I'm failing to grasp?
I think it has to do more with the type of music you are comparing between reproduced and live. For full energy opera, or symphony or rock/pop/techno music I agree that I can only take so much even if my system is very close to the live experienc... 
Just aquired a Denon HA-1000 headamp, falling in love with DL301mk2 again
also if anyone wants to share their love of the Denon DL-110 or DL-301mk2 or HA-1000 headamp that would be cool too. I'd also be good if anyone wants to talk me out of getting a DL-103 (48,000yen) or anything else. Sometimes we just need to enjoy ... 
So many great golden era DD tables out there, what do you recommend for $1000?
Hi Uber, have you had more time to listen to your QL-A7?  Did it come with the JVC arm (maybe the UA-7075? https://audio-heritage.jp/VICTOR/etc/ua-7082.html)

I think Uber got the right step down. there is a picture of the back of the unit with the specs saying Kashimura TI-41, 110-130v input, 110v output 120VA max. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/r5cAAOSwM91adukl/s-l640.jpg

I found a QL-A7 schematic over here. https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/jvc-ql-7-turntable-unstable-speed.835544/https://i.imgur.com/EpvHSek.pngand it shows a 120v transformer for USA. But it also uses a regulator circuit (X820/X821) ... 
Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl
I’ve enjoyed reading this thread. I definitely love playing vinyl records. Like others it is a mix of nostalgia, the physical process, the beautiful record covers to read while I listen, the hunt for old vinyl in the record shops, and the beautifu...

Greg, which MNPCTECH feet did you get for your QL-Y66F? I had a look on their website and they didn't list JVC/Victor. I think the feet on my QL-Y5 screw in with machine bolts so maybe the ones for the Pioneer would work for me.https://mnpctech.co...

Dear Raul, thank you. I love digging around audio-heritage.jpI'm not sure how many of these higher end 1980s Japanese TT made it out of Japan, but they were popular here and they made many variations of models. There are 3 Pioneer PL-70LII on yaho...

I support Halcro’s enthusiasm for JVC/Victor DD tables. On his enthusiasm I decided to try a QL-Y5. I was able to pick up a "junk" QL-Y5 sans-arm for practically nothing here in Tokyo and then custom mounted a MicroSeiki MA-505 arm. Yes I loose th...

Henry, Thanks. I think I will pass on those elliptical Grace F8L / F9L. Pryso,Thanks for the recommendation. I'll try to find a copy of this sound track.Out of curiosity and regarding Chakster's comment about sharing interesting auctions listings:... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Chakster, I completely understand. Sorry, I should have realized that. I won't talk about yahoo auctions or anything that I'm bidding on or the prices I get in Japan.  I actually have the same problem with American and European stores/auction... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Thank you Henry. Yes I’m an amateur/hobby musician. My main instrument now is oboe, but I played Alto sax for about 10years in middle school and high school, and later picked up harp, keyboard a little. Also did DJing and a little dance music prod...
