Been here of my own volition since Nando was banned over there for spurious, and later reneged, reasons. Nando is a far more forgiving human being than me.

I'll confirm that Scott Grammer (Red Bank Vintage Audio) has a backlog. He's my go-to guy now, especially since he's just down the street from me. Took him a year to get to my Parasound to discover nothing wrong - I had a stray strand of wire that crossed over and would short every time I...

Horrible doesn't begin to describe that one...

This is one reason I keep my PO box. Work delivery is almost as bad as leaving it on the front porch - department mail codes mean little to nothing to the folks delivering mail on campus.

Good to know. I have one of their garbage products at work. I put my Mac laptop through the vinyl digitizing process for a couple of months back in 2017. One right after another, 6 days a week. Makes listening a lot easier but every now and then I just have to go all analog and break out the...

I'm guessing that there Macintosh has a remote? Not sure my back would appreciate something that necessary being that low. Nice, nice system, though, Tony. What DAC or DAC/streamer are you running?

Sending a pm, Lee. It's worth a try.

Thanks for that, Lee. I may hit you up for one to experiment. Louis is closer to home, so I'm going to start with one of his (probably a Dahlquist). I can only send signal one direction as the Exposure doesn't have jumpers between the amp and preamp. There's only a feed to a second amp. All I...

This setup with the no-name Chinesium single driver speakers Louis gifted me a couple of months ago. Got things rearranged to accommodate swapping in a Dahlquist crossover when we get around to it but frankly, while I'm not sure about what's going on, the sound really opened up with these in...

It's a J J Cale kind of evening here in Chattanooga...

Welcome from another ex-pat!

Tony gifted me a Denon HD-M years ago. It is also a fine tape.

I believe it's hot pretty much everywhere. I know it is down here; about baked to a crisp Saturday at E's softball tournament. I'd forgotten how tough softball players have to be to put up with that heat all day and half the night.

And I can vouch for that preamp. If Wyn's using all computer-based measuring solutions, he can keep on as far as my money's concerned.

Think I'll try some Uncle Nearest next - see if it's worth the fuss.

Still working on a bottle of Cooperstown whiskey.

That's an understatement if I ever heard one.

I led you astray - they are 133s, not 233s. If you can snag a good 133, it's a good stereo deck. They tend to look a little rough as they spent a lot of time in road cases while running shows on location. I used one in my home system on occasion if i wanted a 3 and 3/4 ips recording when I...

Had reel to reel first for the sound quality and I just loved the look of the 10" decks. A Pioneer RT-1011 for home when I was working in radio. Got a Nak BX-100 later for convenience and car tapes. Replaced the RT-1011 with a Revox A77 and later got out of tape altogether for a while and went...

Hey Chris! Welcome from another ex-pat! Just a comment - I'm pretty sure the Teac C1/C3 and Tascam 122/233/234 all share the same drive and chassis. I know when I had my Tascam 233 (a stereo deck with a cue track for multi-image shows), it was the same drive as a friends's C3.
