| Subwoofer I like Velodyne's DD series because of the room tuning and ability to play below 20hz. | |
| Subwoofer I also do not believe in running my main speakers through the sub's crossover just for purity's sake. I know there are certain advantages to doing so but I like to keep the mains as clean as possible. This way also allows you to just turn the sub ... | |
| Questionable service at Soundsmith I have used van den Hul quite a few times and he does excellent work. But that was when Stanalog was the van den Hul rep. I don't know who is know. | |

| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Fleib,Contact cement is not thick or uneven if sprayed. It's what speaker companies use for veneer. I've used it to laminate lead to armboards. It works well. As for the veneering of the lead, you could use something other than aluminum if desired... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? I suggest laminating the lead to a thin sheet of aluminum using contact cement or epoxy. Use a roller to flatten them. I don't think it's a good idea to have exposed lead that can come in contact with the platter or your skin. | |
| WARNING - USE UPS FOR SHIPPING RATHER THAN FEDEX I've had many big arguments with FedEx over the years but I think they have improved.

| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Lewm, I don't seem to have any problems with my SP-10MK III. I just thought it would be nice to have spares of the 6042 chip since so many other units use them too. I have a friend who has many SP-10MK II units that need work also. |
