Bob Dylan finally makes sense....
Well said Hdm and Ben campbell. 
Revox B795 Turntable
Despite jefranks' express opinion, the fact that he is going all digital while owning that Revox B795 speaks very ill of the TT. If it were good (and well set up) he'd be sticking with vinyl. 
Ani Difranco
"Dilate" and "Out of Range". Earlier stuff. The first more personal, the latter more political. Pretty excellent. Check out "Untouchable Face" 
Using integrated as headphne amp: tape in or aux?
Thanks guys. Makes sense to me. Glad the way that it will work is the way that likely sounds best too! 
Leave class A on, or turn it off?
Thanks all. That seems to be the consenus all around. By the way, I haven't bought yet, but am auditioning. Its a 1991 version, the MM phono board has been yanked out, and it surely looks worn -- probably a 6 on the A-gon scale. Supposing I want i... 
musical drummers...who are they ???
Ringo not a drummer? Ok, then, let's not belittle him with that title. Call him a "percussionist". You don't get to be the most effective, enduring, varied often danceable, and always tasty pop band ever without a fabulous rhythm section. let's no... 
Lenco tables
Sucks how? I have two, one fully modded/replinthed/re-armed etc, and the other simply restored and mildly tweaked. The first is utterly awsome -- best TT or front end for that matter I've been intimate with. The second is terrific too, giving extr... 
Who is the best classical pianist alive?
So many tremndous artists, those mentioned and others. Two to add: Brendel, Lupu. In recent years I heard each give recitals that were among the most satisfying, utterly captivating, bits of music making I've ever heard. 
Starting From Scratch - What would you do?
Get a Lenco, either rebuilt or for DIY rebuild. Front end is most important, and that's the best you can get in your price range (or maybe in any price range). Best way to hear what your speakers (whatever they turn out to be) can do, and more imp... 
What tt 's have you sold after getting a Lenco?
Nottingham Interspace with Interspace arm. Now, with Jean's help, I have The Green Monster -- an L78 replinthed and tweaked, in sea foam green with cream top plate. I've got a Cardas rewired RB300 with Petra IC's on one armboard, and a SME Series ... 
About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone
Hey, jockstraps aside, Lugnut, your dignity and spirit through all of your woes has been and continues to be exemplary and moving. Way to live. Best wishes.

Tchaikovsky couldn't carry Brahms' jockstrap. 
The effect of the Expanding Universe on turntables
Yes, I meant "cite" not "site" -- as in "citation". Ever since the advent of web "sites" I both occasionally get "cite" and "site" confused (homonyms are so stupid, but they do enable amusement) and find myself typing so quickly, and for such triv... 
The effect of the Expanding Universe on turntables
Um, you are seriously caught in the grip of an unrealistic and misguided quest for perfect accuracy if you think the expansion of the universe and space time curvature could possible be relevant to to the musical performance of objects of such mid... 
Skewed cantilever
It may be twisted a bit too, so the stylus is not pointing straight down, but canted a bit to the right. Can this be adjusted for? Is it dangerous to my vinyl?
