| Pre Suggestions Krell KSA-250 & Apogee Scintillas I ran a KRC2 with my KSA200s and also my FPB300cx. I absolutely loved it. I ended up changing to the Krell KCT pre only because it matched cosmetically & has the CAST connections. I actually liked the KRC2 almost better due to a couple of thin... | |

We use steel shot to treat aircraft parts and it would be a lot cheaper than 500 cans of bb's or whatever. I lot of guns now use steel shot as wel... | |

| Technics SL1200: standard overhang gauge or MintLP There is a cheaper version from Turntable Basics that uses the same mirror type setup. It works very well and the mirror has many other good uses as well. I got my SL1200 set up great with that version.Good luck, John | |
