| Built a Flexi-type rack? I left the the grease on till near completion. I did remove the excess with a cotton rag before starting. You are going to be threading A LOT of nuts when you put the thing together. It makes the work somewhat easier. When you are ready to clean, ... | |
| Built a Flexi-type rack? The price of brass is going up daily. If you add up the cost of 4 threaded brass rods, enough nuts and washers for a three shelf unit these days, you are close to 400.00 BEFORE adding in the cost of the shelf materials and cones for the feet. If y... | |

| Audio Icon/Idol - Who would you like to meet? I'd like to meet Albert Porter ;)Hey Albert: Didn't Milla Jovovich first say "Big Bad Boom" in Fifth Element? I'm not so sure I'd want those comments in my listening room. | |
| Amp recommendations for Maggie 3.6? Mrtennis-what you are reporting vis a vie the 3.6R/Wolcott presentation has not been my experience. the Wolcott P220 sounds nothing like a solid state amp. While it is true that the amp can control planars and electrostats like a solid state amp, ... | |

| Built a Flexi-type rack? The way I went isn't cheap either. I had Lloyd Walker custom tap a set of large Valid Points to fit my rods, which are 5/8 -11 right hand thread. If you use 5/8-11 right hand thread, you can get a set of Salamander feet that work for about 39.00/s... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Rush-I had the Khatchaturian on my shopping list for RMAF, but Acoustic Sounds did not have it. I'm planning on bringing the "Emerald Forest" soundtrack with me along with a slideshow of photos from Denver. Provided I get them edited down to a rea... | |

| Von Schweikert DB99 vs Consonance M15-thoughts? The two or three times I have heard them (M-15), they have been out in the room, about five feet out and four feet or so from the side walls. I have not heard them in comparison with the 99's so I cannot offer any comparisons there. From my perspe... | |
| Walker Audio Proscenium Turntable: Photo Essay Albert-I'll see your Natalie Portman - and raise you two Renee Zelwiegers. Will I see you in Denver? Maybe we should go out with Lloyd and tell some lies... | |
| Walker Audio Proscenium Turntable: Photo Essay Actually, the new compressor Lloyd is using in much better in the condensation area. In addition, it's very easy to examine the contents of the condensate bottle and empty it. I have had my Proscenium since April 1st and have only emptied the bott... | |
| I could not believe it Stiltskin-keep in mind that before good fortune smiled on me re: the Walker, It Was the Scoutmaster/JMW9 Sig/Shelter 501 that had my toes a tappin'. I felt then and still do that the Scoutmaster with the JMW9 Sig tone arm is one of the best buys i... |
