Even with Gary's busy work schedule he managed to find a gift to send my way. Thank you for the three 5-packs of sealed Minidisc blanks I received about two weeks ago. Gary didn't want any money sent to him, but I will treat him to a nice lunch when he next rides into Squamish with his bike, on...

Hi all, No, this wasn't a deal involving illicit drugs, but a quick sale for Ron when I spied his advertisement of a Sony Metal Master cassette with a Coke commercial recorded to it...

Birthday greetings, Scott! Hoping you have a stress-free day doing something you enjoy. I figured you might not have taken the day off work to celebrate your birthday...like most of us. Nando.

Hi all, I picked up this Marantz integrated amplifier from the local mini flea market, today. My youngest son, Christopher, was with me when I discovered it. Chris recently moved back home (this past Tuesday) after spending the past four years living in Montreal, half a country away. Before we...

My friend, Robert, is more of an audio enthusiast than I am - if you can believe that. Often, he looks for items of interest for me and I do the same for him. He lives in Vancouver, about an hour's drive south of me. I haven't been able to drop in to see him for almost a year, but we do phone...

What a good way to start the week. Happy Birthday, Perry. Hope you made it a three-day weekend. Nando.

I don't have a Pioneer RT-2044 open-reel deck, but I thought this was just too good to pass up in the eventuality I buy one. I am keeping it hush-hush for the time being, but such a deck is a possibility once I save up enough cash to commit to the kind offer. The seller of this item was quite...

Best wishes for a good one, Dennis! Nando.

Hi all, Here are a few pictures of my WEB speakers. These are Phoenix models. Nando.

Happy Birthday, Ron! Hoping you have a carefree day and get to laze around the house sipping some of your favourite spirits. Nando.

Hi all, Today, I received a surprise package from Douglas. Inside were a couple of new records: a 12" 33 in 180 gram of Serge Gainsbourg's "histoire de melody" and a 7" 45 of The Budos Band with the singles "Ghost Walk" and "The Proposition." What a nice gift! Totally unexpected, but very...

A little birdie told me today is Pat's birthday. Have a relaxing day doing something you like. Somehow, I think it might be music-related. Nando.

Hi all, A little less than two weeks ago our car club had a small contingent attend a cruise. It's a cruise that we like to do at least once a year. At this get-together, we met with our cars at the local casino at about 7:00 p.m. with the plan to cruise from there to our favourite fish &...

Hi all, I received a PM from Craig (aka stuwee) letting me know he was going to send me something he knew I would like. His PM had the cryptic clue:" It has to do with audio and goes very fast , love ya guys!! Craig" I received the package, yesterday, and in the box I found these...

Hi all, After work, yesterday, I dropped into my local used record shop to check out what new stock had come in since my last visit. There has been a particular contemporary jazz artist I have been looking for on vinyl and once again I didn't have any luck finding any of her albums. But I did...

Extending birthday greetings to Scott. Keep those reels spinning! Nando.

Yesterday, I received this package of Sony MDs from Gary. Inside was a note from him that he found them at a thrift store and immediately thought about me when picking them up. Very kind of you to do that, Gary, and I do use a lot of minidiscs for recording. Nando.

Hi all, This harman/kardon cassette deck had been sitting on the shelf since September 2011 at a local vintage store I like to swing by. After seeing it there each time I dropped by, I finally decided to buy it. There had been an interested buyer before me, but he didn't return back soon enough...

Hi all, When I mentioned earlier about the Sony TC-K677ES cassette deck I recently purchased at the local mini flea market, I commented there were two other decks besides the Sony ES on display. This is one I did a little research on before picking it up two days ago. I tried the Teac R-505...
