Just Venting parts II, III, IV and V

[stuwee]

Part I, the Thorens debacle is old news, and will be sorted soon, thank you Jim and Larry for helping me figure it out (and anyone I forgot).

Part II, things were going pretty smoothly, taping away but every once and a while I'd flip the Lp and no sound anywhere. I could put my ear near the cart and hear a faint sound. I freakin' start pushing buttons, I'm a manly man, I can figure this out nada....zip....zilch....break time, shut everything down for a couple hours.

Part IIIlater, power everything back up, gotta try the Pioneer TT, WooHoo sound issues forth, start taping again Drop dead gorgeous 'Crime of the Century' MFSL, heavenly...on to Pink Floyd MFSL big 'ol shiteatin' grin!! Put in another MA-XG for some Abbey Road MFSL...screech, grumble, fart! The Teac was hungry, the old problem is back, it's a muncher I go to bed.

Part IV, this morning, maybe the Teac was just getting hot in the transport area again, I should be able to squeek out a couple more before it happens again, Nope... Munched another MA-X, GRRRRR! So F this crap, I get the Denon from the bedroom, problem solved right? Hehe, stay tuned, no sound again from the Pioneer TT!!!

Part V I call Dale, WTF dude? He says "You didn't move it properly and level the table, you are triggering the mute sensor" ($150 part if they have one) , I'm re leveling now, wish me luck! I hope I didn't F up that sensor.

The damage shown below. luckly, if you buy quality, you get quality, I just have to take them apart, snip out the begining damage, put it in the hub and viola, just a little shorter in length.
It's all fixable. I'm keeping a stuff upper lip

So how about sending one of them munched tapes my way?

If you'd like really good venting I'd learn how to louver?

Yeah, hot rod it! , seriously, I don't know what it is, Sam is gonna have to take her for a spin and see what's up. IIRC he hasn't seen too many of these, fingers crossed it's not a biggy.

Web I wouldn't dare send you a munched tape, I owe ya a nice one , I need to learn how to fix these anyway, I know how to take them apart, but I'm not sure about the clip on the hub that holds the tape there, any idea's anyone?
