| Wadia WT3200 repair I have wanted a Wadia WT 2000 since I first saw one in the early 1990's. I see them come up for sale now at a fraction of the price when new. I have to remind myself that repairs are inevitable on units this old. I hope you are able to get the inf... | |
| Best band never to release a truly great album? This is a very old thread that I noticed in the archives. I just wanted to see the opinions of others on the topic, but then I read the original posting. I don't want to be judgmental, but anyone who thinks Jethro Tull hasn't made a "truly great a... | |
| Should I consider the newer Audio Research pre & power amps, when I play records not CD's I don’t own, but have always admired, Audio Research equipment. I have read many passionate reviews about the virtues of ARC, so I tend to believe them. Their vintage gear is pricey, but easier to liquidate when the upgrade bug hits. I see an ARC ... | |
| is the Audiogon auction clock accurate? I had a similar experience. In the last minute, several bids came through. The winning bid, or what I thought was the winning bid, was below my maximum bid. Obviously, I was upset and let Audiogon know it via email. I couldn’t understand how my bi... | |
| VPI Scout 2 vs. Luxman PD 441 I agree. I sold my Luxman PD 444 because I didn't think I needed two arms. I have regretted it since. I would replace the Denon arm. So, to answer your last question, I believe that you could sell the PD 441 to recoup some of the cost of an upgrad... | |
| Resale value Sure, whatever! | |
| Resale value Initially, I said that buying equipment was analogous to the stock market. "Analogous" simply means that something is like, or similar to, something else-not precisely the same. My comment was first taken out of context, and then blown out of prop... | |
| How to go about getting a new arm board for a new tonearm cleeds,Thanks for confirming my recommendation. | |
| Resale value cleeds,Look, this is a "forum." In a forum, you’re free to express your opinion. No one asks for your opinion of their opinion, although you are free to share it. If you don’t like what you’ve read...just get over it! | |
| How to go about getting a new arm board for a new tonearm I'm sure VPI accepts that many of their tables, especially the higher end ones, use tonearms that are not VPI. They have a great reputation for service. Give them a call, or email. | |
| Turntable Setup Help; Phillips 777 "Long in the tooth" simply means old (vintage) | |
| ________ is an artist I did not expect to like but was pleasantly surprised. I told my daughters that I could never listen to a group called "10,000 Maniacs" until I heard them. Now I have everything Natalie Merchant has recorded. | |
| Resale value cleeds,If you backpedal some, you’ll find that I never claimed that Audiogon ensures liquidity, only facilitates it. You may need to look up the definition of liquidity. This is my last post on this thread. The points I've made have been pretty cl... | |
| Resale value cleeds,Maybe you just bought the wrong equipment, or paid too much for the equipment you bought. You probably should have considered the resale potential before purchasing.If you don't see the similarity between the buying and selling of securitie... | |
| Resale value cleeds,I’m sorry that you didn’t agree with my analogy between the stock market and used audio equipment, but not agreeing with it doesn’t make it wrong. The stock exchanges don’t "ensure" liquidity, they simply facilitate it (very much like Audio... |
