And What Did You Get Your Wife For Christmas?
Got home. ordered the new TT/Cartridge setup. She never even batted an eye. I guess she is getting used to indulging this merry-go-round of Audiophilia Nervousa. 
And What Did You Get Your Wife For Christmas?
Ucmgr-No, not at all my friend. That is hardly the end of story. I told her when I put the other table on the market, it was to help finance a new one. If she complains about the $$$, I say: "Is the mortgage being paid? Are the tuition bills being... 
And What Did You Get Your Wife For Christmas?
Funny you should ask. allow me to set the scenario:I have the bug to upgrade my analog setup. So, I put my current table here on the 'Gon hoping to sell it to take some of the credit card sting out of the new purchase. In addition, I am funding a ... 
Tandberg tape decks
I have both a 330 (with Rosewood side panels) and a 310 MKII. I have also owned Nak decks as well. I don't know that I would put the 330 in the same stratosphere as the Dragon, but I would put it up against anything else Nak produced. If your inte... 
Lullabies, Anyone?
My five year old daughter still loves Eva Cassidy's version of the old folk/bluegrass song "Tall Trees in Georgia"

Audio Research service
Ditto what John said. I had some work done on an SP 9 MkII preamp a couple of months ago and the turnaround time including shipping both ways was less than 2 weeks; the total bill was less than 100.00 AND the unit came back in brand new double box...

My wife finally got it
TWL, what do you think of the Clearaudio Aurum series, specifically the Beta S? 3mv output MM. It's kind of heavy at 10 grams, but would work in my ProJect arm. Too bad the Denon 103 has such a low output...I used a Denon 300 MC for a while in the... 
My wife finally got it
TWL-If I decide to keep the ProJect and upgrade the cart, I might be looking at something on the order of a relatively HO moving coil or a high quality MM. You had answered my thread earlier on the output voltage of the Denon 103. I have followed ...
