By the way, if you don't have the Lingo power supply, you will have to lift off your platter and change the belt from the cog wheel it's on to the other one.

Hold down your power on button (on the left side of the plinth) for a few seconds and it will turn red and go at 45 rpm.

Hey Suzy, it was a TORX screwdriver. 
Ensemble Mega Powerpoint cable
You'll know you have the upgraded Power Point if it has the very dark purplish Mega Powerflux cord. But Artistic Audio, the distributor of the Ensemble line, is always getting these newer, more upgraded models in and the more recent Power Points m... 
Songs & Artists NEVER HEARD on the RADIO?
We have a station, WRNR, in Washington DC area (it's actually in Graysonville, MD) that plays all the eclectic, singer-songwriter stuff you could ever want. I can sometimes get it off the air, but otherwise you can hear it on the internet, site us...

Hey, this thread is getting more and more interesting! Mezmo, you were insane in your college days. Throwing a couch out a 5th floor window! What city were you in? It must have been long before they started cracking down on college shenanigans. By... 
What are we listening to...for...with?
I'm sure we've all read those interviews in Stereophile w/great recording artists or recording engineers whose home systems are little mini-boxes. I always get such a kick out of that! Of course, you can listen to music in a variety of ways and fo...

Mr Prince--yes, there were (thankfully) +'s and -'s on the tweeter magnet, and the little lead wires were red and black! Couldn't have been simpler. The women's college was Sweet Briar! it is near but certainly not IN the town pronounced locally a...

Thank you, guys, I'm taking my bows for my "skill." I talked to my dealer, and the story is this: the guy who ships gear for him decided the Coincidents, which are grill-less, could suffer tweeter damage in shipping, so he got halfway through his ... 
need the words to a jingle ca. 1967
Thanks a lot for putting this asinine tune in my head for the rest of the dang day!!! Once i saw the words, the tune just came rushing back in . . . 
Vienna Acoustics vs Revel Studios?
I disagree w/the above post. The Beethovens are fantastic speakers, but they need and love power. I did not like them w/a 100-watt tube amp (ARC VT100 Mk III), but loved them w/an Ayre V-3 (available used on this site for about $1600, usually). I ... 
How many power conditioners do you own and use?
Driver is lucky that he apparently was able to supervise the installation of the line running from the pole to his house. I can't even supervise the cable TV guys who come in; after they've left, nothing turns on or records and the picture on the ... 
Why Doesn't Contemporary Jazz Get Any Respect?
I've been reading this thread for several days now and i still have no idea what "smooth jazz" is or is supposed to be. If it's Kenny G, I don't like him. If it includes ECM artists, Pat Metheny, Bill Frisell, Mike Scofield, I do like them all ver... 
Best jazz either purchased or released in 2001
Thanks, everyone, for your excellent and wide-ranging responses. So far, I've used up BOTH my gift certificates. I got about 13 of the recommendations I received here. So far, without having listened to them all, I esp. love Charles Lloyd, someone... 
How do you buy music?
Though I do a lot of my buying online (Amazon and especially Half.com for used, demo, or brand new at significant discounts), I regularly stop by my local Borders to browse through the jazz, country, and folk sections and listen to some of their 5...
