| Wife/girlfriend or audio: if you had to chose? It would never happen as she would never ask.But I would give up audio for my wife (27). | |
| Turntable packing wall of shame Dang darch, you get around. I have visited 4 sites this morning and have run across the exact same thread on every site. We ALL know the possible hazards of shipping a badly packaged table, so I think it would be more helpful if instead of showing... | |
| Help Which re-tip best for denon 103R? Shibata? You might want to check over on the Vinyl Asylum. There has been some talk about the $250 retip by soundsmith and those who have had it done are very pleased. I think it includes a ruby cantaliver, but not sure. | |
| How far out there are you? Kenny, sounds like you are enjoying yourself.Unlike many audio folks, I only have 1 system, although I do have a backup vintage receiver just in case. I used to have several 70's receivers, amps and speakers, but one day it dawned on me that inste... | |
| Search classifieds by condition? jax, you can search by zip code. On the main page by the search box, is the word "search". Click on that and you will see where to enter part of your zip to search items for sale in your area. | |
| Guilty Pleasures.... I can see that this hobby can quite easily become an obsession. Thankfully due to financial contraints, I couldn't get too carried away. After some soul searching, I got to the point that what I had was good enough. I wasn't in a competition with ... | |
| First round of auditions disappointing It sounds to me like you might enjoy some of the vintage Altecs. I have Model 17's with 604 drivers (and listen nearfield), but for your room you might want Model 19's. Dynamics galore and crank them til your heart is content. The drawback is you ... | |
| Audio Technica ATP 12T tonearm Thank you for your comments. I have been using and listening to this table and arm for about 5 months and have really been enjoying it. The reason I had asked, is that I don't have any experience with other arms, like the Regas or even SME's to kn... | |
| Damaging records with a hand turned machine. Xiekitchen, I am not sure I agree with you. I beleive the cleaning fluids do most of the cleaning, aided by the brush. I don't think alot of pressure is neccesary. Just enough for the brush to reach as close as possible to the bottom of the groove... | |
| How to thwart cats I have 3 dogs and 2 cats and they are not allowed in my audio room. The dogs will all stand outside the door looking in, but never come into the room. One cat likes to come in and take a look around, so I got a spray bottle and filled it with wate... | |
| Speakers for large open room For that kind of money you could get stacked Altec Model 19's. :o) Those should fill the room nicely. | |
| Cartridge choice? Ortofon or Goldring It sounds like you already own the Goldring? If so, I would give it a good listen. I have never heard the 1012, but I have a 1042 that I like alot. I also used to have a 2252B that I used it with and it was very nice. Give it an extended try and s... | |

| Dipping my toe into analog I would suggest getting your Thorens hooked up,learn how to properly setup the cartridge and play some vinyl. Give it a month or 2 and see what you like and dislike about it. Then you will be able to ask more precise questions on what you like (wa... |
