| Synergistic Red Fuse ... marqmike ...You won't get "carried away" until you swap out the red fuse for one of the black fuses. :-)OP | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... p59teitel ...I'm pleased to hear that you got the blown fuse issue resolved to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting the results. More often than not, businesses hear the complaints and not the compliments. The SR crew led by Ted Denny realize th... | |
| Upgrade my DAC or buy more weed? I tried pot once. It made me want to rape and kill. | |
| Cart Recommendations Save yourself some money and go with the Audio Technica ART-9. It has 0.5 output and costs $1100. from LP Tunes. Here's an entire thread on the ART-9:https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/pani-new-art-9-up-and-running?highlight=art%2B9&page=... | |
| Best Component Ever, for the money Best component for the money? A Sherwood 7100 receiver that I have in my bedroom. Twenty bucks at the thrift store. | |
| Worst or Best Excuses! My wife told me that if I bought one more piece of audio equipment she'd leave me. I kinda miss her sometimes. OP | |

I agree ... call ARC and find out what Warren uses in the listening evaluation room. In the meantime, call Ray at Von Gaylord Audio and talk to him about his cables. They... | |
| I can't play a recording all the way through ^^^ Yep, its kind of a rude awakening when one realizes that he/she has a lot less time looking forward than the time that was spent looking backward. As for me, I'm not only in the final glide path, I'm running out of runway. :-)Like you, bdp24,... | |
| Fremer tours the Audio Technica factory I thought it was a good factory tour. Enlightening for me, as I had no idea what the plant looked like where my ART-9 was made. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... David! ...That was a totally unexpected story regarding Mickey Raphael. He's a great player. The way he bends the notes is very seductive. I've played since I was nine years old, and still can't even come close to mastering the instrument. The har... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... The vinyl record puts Willie Nelson right there in the room. His "Redheaded Stranger" album isn't too shabby either. By the way, as a harmonica player, Nelson's harmonica player makes me want to throw all of my harmonicas into the trash. | |
