    NAD 6300

    Sorry to hear that. Is the deck's capabilities of real interest to you, though? If so, I'd consider getting it fixed and ask the seller to contribute to the repair. Bird in hand and all that as its appearance is good...

    dbx224 worth taking a punt on?

    I've found it can make some difference if you're careful with you levels and don't drive them hard so you create that pumping but I'm in the minority. The downside is the tape probably won't work on any other deck. Try a couple of recordings on your K-720 where you keep the levels peaking at or...

    Thorens TD-125 MKII rework

    That is a gorgeous Thorens! Seeing too much great work around here - I'm about to get jealous. About. I still know what I'm good at it - and it's buying stuff.

    phase linear 400

    And with that much firepower, why are you playing anything at low volume? :D

    'High End'. What does that description mean to you?

    What??? You mean you didn't buy the rings for the outer edge of the CD?? I'll actually admit to still owning a couple of CDs with that crap on 'em.

    What are you drinking?

    I like a good weiss every now and then. Kinda hard to find down heyah in my part of the south, though. Which is why it's every now and then...

    What are you drinking?

    I like the "functional" description.

    'High End'. What does that description mean to you?

    I'd argue that value as a concept is at play in this conversation, as well. "High End" can be high priced. It can also be high value if the sound and build quality is excellent at a lower price point. I'd argue that a select few pieces of equipment can be both at the same time - high priced and...

    what are you listening to?

    I can attest to Tony's stash - my 3 Chords & The Truth mix is on the one he graciously sent me and it is an all-out excellent sounding tape. Speaking of...

    That's a cool cover - cassette, I assume?

    Price up, availability down for replacement styli in the near future?

    Well, no wonder the damn thing was blowing up phono cards right and left 15 years ago or whenever I switched to the Exposure integrated. SS was supposed to have replaced the stylus tip on this Sumiko Alchemist HOMC. When I got it back, it blew out the left channel of the MC card in the...

    Peter Yarrow has passed...

    Wow. Another great one gone. Here's to some great music.

    what are you listening to?

    Got a '70s AOR mix playing off the computer. Do miss those big 10" reels spinning but don't miss the visual clutter in this little room. There's a PR99 still at the office should I ever change my mind...

    Happy 2025

    Yes, Happy New Year, everyone! New adventures await... Glad Randy is home, Lee. And I know whereof he speaks regarding that kind of pain. Hope he has help during his recovery.

    what are you listening to?

    I know that feeling. I'd forgotten how good a songwriter Jessie Colter is. It took that rendition of I'm Looking For Blue Eyes by Shelby Lynn and her sister - Allison Moorer - on their Not Dark Yet album to remind me.
