Here is a less painful read. Sorry about the above!I purchased a pair of M120's about a month and a half ago knowing of their history of needed maintenance. I bought them from a dealer who sells a lot here and who gave me a reasonable purchasing p...

Please forgive all the typos.....I did developed this posting via my phone, which often allows for undetected mistakes. Try to read through these. 
Any Pono player owners out there?
BTW, I don't agree with the articles contention that high rez is insignificant.......as a recording engineer I believe that it is important and extremely significant. What I do struggle with is that FLAC has been around for at least 13 years. It i...

I'm glad this has been posted. For a long time I've had mixed feelings on this venture. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Neil's music and have always bought and appreciated Neil's desire for high rez either through vinyl or DVD-A he continued ...

Well, I'm not really sure I get what it offers that isn't already available. High rez files on the go is available and I roll my own. I'm not sure why I would need to buy his device and add to what I already have.I'm also a bit soured on the fact ...

I never shop there. They don't pay their employees enough. 
Tandberg 3004 cassette
Ok.....my bad.....I'll pay the 110. I'm glad my wife pays the bills.

That is a highly desirable deck and if working and in good cosmetic condition could catch up to $1000.00 to the right buyer. If it is scrap, then the price you'll get will depend.Finally, I'll buy it now for $101.00. That is 10% more than Buconero... 
Nube question - what does a tonearm upgrade do
(Try balancing your cartridge/tonearm to 0 VTF so it floats level, then blow gently sideways on the cartridge. On many cheaper arms it will move an inch or so. On a top quality arm it will float all the way across the record.)I guess that makes al...

Recommend a cartridge for my new TT
That was my experience with the at440. I thought it was too tilted towards the high and a bit harsh and hard sounding. For less money a Denon 110 sounds more evenly balanced and detailed. That is my budget cartridge of choice.

The tweaked out Thorens 150 wipes the floor with four out of the six tables you listed. I can't speak for either the Funk, or the Acoustic Signature, having never listened to them.However, being very in tune with what the Thorens can do against th...

Glad I could help.....now pick up that soundsmith benz ruby. The seller said it has less than 7 hours on it for 800. Now that is some good sounds. Or that sutherland 20/20. Another great deal. Depending on what your running now, either might be ju...

Btw......if your only worried about 5 he motor in your current rig why not just buy a spare at well under 100. Fixing your ground problem is easy and shouldn't cost much or take much time. Then, instead, upgrade you phono section or cartridge with...
