Where do you guys buy tubes?
That ebay error has done 10,000 transaction and has a 100% rating. That's impeccable! 
Whats playing on your system today?
Tommy Bolin, private eyes is one of the best rock albums of all time. Get a clean first pressing and the sound quality is also very good.

Btw, the vinyl version of 10-14-83 is much better than the cd release. I'll extend my hightail offer to include my 24/96 vinyl transfer of this show, too.

90 % alcohol to clean the belt, not soap, that is. 
How long should it take a platter to get up to speed?
Don't apply too much talc and use 90% alcohol. If it is still a slow starter try taking the belt off and give the platter a spin. It should take well over a minute to stop. If so, replace you belts.Btw, on my non suspended table I don't use talc o...
