FM tuner alignment is 30% skill, 30% experience, 30% science, 30% test equipment and 30% art. Getting a tuner that works exactly as new with a correct alignment is a pure treat. Mike is known to do an excellent job. I guess I need to get a recap done and get my 719 boxed up for shipment. Might...

His site does say the line is short.

Thanks. I need to check on that.

I need to find a guy. My 719, waiting for me to fix the lower output in the matching AU, when tuned gets 3 readings for the station. The actual broadcast MHz heard over the air, the digital readout a few tenths off and the dial indicator, another few tenths off, probably the other direction...

JaS isn’t TH, he is HFE and VE. PS is TH but we know what you mean. Some bad actors cause wider blackouts than just the problem child. I didn’t know PS was banning IP address ranges.

That is one long paragraph. was it a shop in SEPA or was it an individual the does Marantz? Nice price.

Just received this album from a friend. Katie Pruitt’s first album.

I’m liking my rig. played some Quantic and Q-burns discs, Sade, Santana last couple days. A few different Q discs as I have a handful and liked em on first listen when I rated them on Discogs. But Curasión by Santana on Multidimensional Warrior I crank and with the 4 dome tweeters, two piezo...

Many people say they want their stereo system to sound like live music I’m not in that camp and you did not say you were either. I want my stereo system to sound good to me. I don’t care whether it sounds like live music or not. If the sound pleases me it’s what I want to hear. Three times in...

One of these days I need to hook up the computer. It has files, lots of them. Has an M-audio card to RCA jacks and I have an unused MHDT Havana DAC. Either will work but I have a hard time looking at a chunk of stereo gear with only one tube sticking its head out the top of the unit. Yes, I...

We listened to modded DQ-10s and I’m continuing that, enjoying the same discs a second time Steey Dan Gaucho BT Those Hopeful Machines America, hits BT ESCM I can damage stuff with the first part of the tune “Content” Firefall You Are the Woman and Other Hits Rig needs a bit of work. One sub...

I don’t go for remastered, actually don’t buy media since the influx of 1200 new to me CDs and Sam taking a handful of records to clean every couple weeks. There is enough new to me that I like, BT, Infected Mushroom, Etherwood to name a few to keep me listening. Comment was about you saying...

Wish that were the case for more of all the redone stuff filling the market

looking over the last 10-days to 2 weeks. Just big over all those selections and play em on the rig. I’d be happy listening.

You are assuming Luxman had heat control engineers. From my experience, if they did he worked part time. This is the same type layout as the Yamaha C-4 preamp. Has a few issues due to heat but nothing like the charred boards I have seen in Luxman gear.
