| The profiteers have struck Squeezebox Touch $750 Thanks for the clarification, Swampwalker! | |
| The profiteers have struck Squeezebox Touch $750 While The Economist may be a UK publication, it does (IMO) lean left.Regarding an 88 yo getting meds costing $200/day, you are correct, not a chance that Obamacare (or Medicare for that matter) will not cover that!We don't have a red or blue probl... | |
| What is the gray felt meterial I got with my Sony? Yes, that is likely what it is but I have never found that included in any Sony XA5400 box I have opened. | |
| What is the gray felt meterial I got with my Sony? I am guessing you bought this used and the seller sent this along.I have unpacked scores of brand new (and used) Sony 5400's and none included any grey felt. | |
| Your favorite 5687 tube in the Modwright 9.0 SE? I am a big Raytheon 5687 fan. When I had the SWL 9.0 I had some 1955's that were just fantastic as well as some versions from the 60's. I am also a fan of the Philips production (dutch made)metal base GZ-34/5AR4. I have early fat base (f-31) as we... | |

| Sony XA-5400es VS Oppo 83SE Rwwear,I bought a Sony 5400 from the E-Bay seller that you posted. It was 'A' stock and came double boxed. I am not affiliated with the seller, just a happy customer. | |
| Sony XA-5400es VS Oppo 83SE Sony has continued production of the XA5400ES even though they had been rumored to be a discontinued model some time ago. I have seen a unit with production of November, 2010 and read a post on another forum that they had a unit with a December, 2... | |

| Cary 303, ModWright Sony 999ES, 33 & 45 Vinyl The Sony 999ES likely needs a new drive. This is a very reliable player but the drive was the only weak point, IMO. The SACD read issue is generally the first indication that it is time.Not a big expensive and you are back in biz! | |
| The Best modifications for the Sony 5400 sacd New 6SN7 tubes cost as little as$40 a pair for Tung Sol current production to big $$$ for NOS tubes. | |
| The Best modifications for the Sony 5400 sacd When the 6SN7 tubes need replacing you simply plug in a new pair. No need to return the player to ModWright.10,000 hours is playing the unit for 5 hours, 7 days a week, for 5+ years. | |
