| Declare the correct value on the Customs form? So in the end...I declared the full $1,200 purchase value on the LP returned to Europe. Import customs charged Euros 9. The carrier charged a bit too for some admin costs and he had to confirm the item had been delivered out of the country. Af... | |
| Declare the correct value on the Customs form? So now reality has unfolded a bit more and this is what has happened so far… Long reasoning omitted, $1,200 was the declared value on the package. The package was then held in the carrier’s warehouse in this major European country for a week. W... | |

| Declare the correct value on the Customs form? And this ’holy grail’ LP is.....well, unfortunately I do not have a copy to keep yet as this copy is being returned.

| Recommended RCA sub-woofer cable? Thank you. Soix please feel free to not comment - thanks | |
| Best container to move prized records between homes? Thanks! I ended up using U-Haul "book boxes." I packed all the LPs myself, adding a thin polystyrene foam board each end, and using lots and lots of strong packing tape. The LP's fit very snuggly, at a slight angle, so left a very small 'triangle' space... | |

| Best Sounding Adapter - Making RCA into Banana or Spade? Thanks! The cable will connect an integrated amp (banana or spade) to a subwoofer (RCA). The cable is RCA both ends. I want to avoid cutting off the RCA at one end and so use a banana / spade adapter. Thank you for your help :-) | |

| Please any idea how to plug in Tara Labs RCA connectors very close together? Thanks Thank you to all for your kind advice. As mentioned above, Tara Labs also recommended (their own) one or two right angle, gold plated RCA connectors. They are $10/each plus shipping so two are ordered and on their way. Thank you again all. |
