Denon DP-62L users out there?
My only beef right now is that the Denon setup in the manual for the straight arm does not coincide with a Geo-disc protractor I have. Comes up too short even with cart. full out at end. The AT cart I had before just baaarly made it to the mark on... 
Denon DP-62L users out there?
Well I sold my s arm like an idiot, a long time ago to someone who needed it. I figured the straignt arm was lowest mass etc. and worked great with the AT MM cart. This cart just mounts different and I can't get enough extension past the headshell... 
Jennings Research? Anyone heard of?
Well I finally listened to the speakers. The beautiful walnut cabinets unfortunately enclose just fair sound. Like alot of non descript boxy 70's speakers. Not hi fi. And one tweet is weak. Guess I will swap those out for the recipient. If you see... 
Personal speaker evolution
1970's-homebuilt horribles, Infinity Qb, little metal Infinities/Ohm subwoofer, BW DM220/two giant kit subwoofers, Vandersteen 2Ce,temporarily with a Sunfire subwoofer. Found with Krell amplification, no sub needed with Vandys. Probably forgot som... 
Jennings Research? Anyone heard of?
Thanks. So far I have not seen anything negative, like they were sold by guys driving around in vans or something. Ahhh, those 70's era box speakers. Back when they had hifi/mid fi stores you could walk into and see a dozen brands(not just types) ... 
Maggie's and cats
Or get electrostat speakers. Maybe the HV on them will act sort of like vertical scat mats and a couple zaps will shy them away! :) 
Maggie's and cats
I found that my Vandersteens were cat magnets after I had them awhile. They pilled the fine grille cloth a little so I got one of those things to shave pills off of sweaters and that took care of that damage. Then I had some black vinyl covers mad... 
Help me decide: Grado Gold or AT440ML
Frankly I use my TT for transcribing to other media, most of the time. I tried a wood body Grado and have an AT440 mounted right now. I thought the Grado sounded great, but it picked up hum from the TT and did not track on the inside track all tha... 
Is this an antique or junk?
SOmeone will want the TT to transcribe old 78 rpm records I would think. Music collectors have lots of old records from the 50's and back in that speed. You cannot get a new deck to play that very easily. They might put on a different tonearm, dep... 
What happened to Discwasher?
Eeyoiks! Stuff growing inside? The label on D4 says it contains isopropyl,(and I wonder what else) so I wonder what could grow in that?maybe some kind of chemical reaction. I will pour it out into a beaker and inspect it. Otherwise, I guess I bett... 
DJ Promo 45's - Interest?
Have you compared the 45 cuts to the album cuts? I heard that the EQ on the singles for airplay was adjusted to sound different in deference to the type of radios people used to have and their sound characteristics. Maybe boost in certain ranges? 
Cartridge frequency response specs
Hey,Anyone remember "Quad" sound from the 70's? They had to come out with super high freq. cartridges to pick up the rear channel data which was encoded in ultrahigh (beyond hearing) freqs. At least in one scheme. Response specs without dB's to te... 
Nakamichi Dragon info?
THANKS FOR THE INFO! I think it is great that there are so many helpful folks out there. Now, just to lay hands on the little gem........
