$39 at elusivedisc dot com Sent them hundreds the last couple of years and they've been great! Love my tt but when I escape the twilight zone I might give this a try. Really miss the semi-auto function. *Paul your wall of gear looks great with the combinations of gray (titanium) and black thrown in between the wood and the LS! LEDs were neat when they came out, but the dials accompanied by a knob are just great!

We're been dipping below the freezing point

...if you can call +5` "Indian Summer", it's happening here, too -------------------------- We got a "new" tv. Boy gave us one of his. Nice unit. Toshiba No, not "smart"... just the way I like them. ------------------ in the Norts Spews - anyone else used to read Tank McNamarra? U AZ snapped their 20 game losing streak [football] with a win over Cal. A Cal player got a celebratory punch in the nuts from a U AZ player. Somehow, I think that should warrant a little more than an unsportsman like conduct penalty.

A debut album from a fine Australian band And what a beauty from 1981 Artist - Moving Pictures Title - Days of Innocence Album ID - https://www.discogs.com/release/6632093-Moving-Pictures-Days-Of-Innocence

Great way to start a Sunday morning here downunder You may also notice the addition of the Sansui TU 717 tuner to the system Art rock with flair Artist - Gordon Giltrap Title Airwaves

This weekend I'll leave the stereo off. The last 4 hours I spent with my wife and kids, we watched a 4 hour German TV show. Monday comes my HiFi friend , then we will make our " HiFi Workshop ". I had already reported a few days ago about it. Then I will still hear enough music with various amplifiers, CD players, streamers, DAC etc.. I am very much looking forward to this event next week.

NO ...For this you are awarded every year by your neighbors with the " leaf blower award, so don´t complain

These taken a couple of weeks ago on a Saturday afternoon. Now, over the bridge, on the landing, a shot in both directions, not much happening on this day. Notice the guy on the little watchtower. Lifeguard, on duty. Working hard.

Been sunny and in the low or mid 70's for highs and 40's and 50's for lows for the last week and they say next week also. Perfect

WOW Paul ...that´s flashing me right now 😉....one of the best analog tuners ever build ! Maybe you remove the 19" rack grips on the amplifier, that looks more homogeneous when the tuner is on top of the amplifier...imo ..

My son (BMS pre-med) treats his little sister to today’s game.

In Europe there is a company called " b-Fly Audio " and they produce seperate Tonearm Lifts ..cost approx $ 200

HA ..you´re spinning again after a couple of weeks . Hamburg is about 4 hours car drive only, my doughter was there a couple of weeks ago to visit the famous " Elb Philharmonie " Concert Hall and ..of course ...Blues is an international language that everybody understands

The answer is that - “no “ a retrofit auto lift like the TD147 can’t be done However the little Q UP lift device can be purchased to do the same job (see video) A cantilever device is also available as well I will probably sell the TD147 at some point in the future

As we all know, the world of audio marketing is full of blather, lies, scandalous mis-representation and a host of other scams, flim-flams and cons. Here's the latest to amuse me. A $5,600 (gee-what a deal!) record clamp. The price alone is an assault on the senses, but the verbiage to justify the price is both hilarious and nonsensical. Enjoy: "A legendary Shun Mook product now being made in very, very limited numbers. This record clamp is made from extremely rare pieces of dried ebony briar. The extra heavy century old ebony root which were immersed in the swamps of Africa has a unique power that no other wood possesses. The vibration generated by the diamond stylus in the vinyl groove besides inducing an electroflux through the phono-cartridge also excites the ebony molecules, causing it to resonate. This in turn is feed back through the stylus and is reproduced as expanded sound staging, enhanced separation, sharpened focus and enriched tonal balance of the music. "

Happy Birthday, have a good day and try to do something fun since your well into oldness.

https://www.worldwidestereo.com/products/mcintosh-mclk12-mantle-clock what's next, a Mac glucose/BP meter?...hmmmm...hold on...with their target clientele that might be a big seller...

You're as bad as I am! I keep thinkin ss but don't think that's gonna happen in this lifetime.

I was also thinking about loosing the handles - Have put things in a safe place, only to be so safe that they can’t be found unless by chance a few years later 🤪🤪 I need to cull my components Thanks John Enjoying the music more as I get older 🤪

I must say I am totally pleased with the sound of these things. It's AWESOME!!! Sounds great in both the theater and with the Klipschorns, but it's with the Klipschorns where the sound really improvement is so huge. I have really enjoyed listening to two channel again for the first time in a long time.

You forgot @Tarheel

These lovely Lacewood Heresy IIIs are sold. I am going to miss them, but my very first Garage Sale listing was a very pleasant experience.

The only three things older than Carl - dust, dirt - - and me -

Can't center a tv on the mantle though, so he's not that sophisticated.

Happy belated!

Dang. Just saw this. Thanks all! George T Stagg got opened Friday. Having a Trappist Westvleteren 12 beer for lunch today. No sense in saving the good stuff. Thanks again for the well wishes guys.

60 today here so with that added hour I think I'll venture out into Sherwood forest with the lawn sweeper. Can't wait for another fall cleaning up all the neighbor's leaves in my yard. 65 tomorrow but w/my luck the city will be around tomorrow sucking them up. Don't wanna miss it! hahaha F my life! Every year I get a celebratory punch in the nuts from the neighbors... Guess I really piss 'em off! 😂

T street bridge, pier view, Dana Point Headlands in the distance.

Hmmmm, rack handles or no rack handles... All my old SAE gear had the handles but they were in an SAE rack. That industrial pro look back then but now I'm torn AND you've got me thinking about my tuner. It's an SAE 8000 digital tuner and I powered it up a while back and naturally it didn't work. Never used the thing but... ...I might. Nah, think I'll off it. Hoarder? Not me. Well maybe... 😂 On or Off? If they're on ya won't lose them... hahaha I dunno either. That wall of gear? Killer but I'm trying to downsize. As if that's gonna happen. I'd be soooo losted @ your place Paul. Ya found your happy place and it looks great!

Georgia is looking REALLY good. Everybody else, meh.

Why isn’t phonics spelled with an “f”? Fawnix?

Thanks mate The tuner has rack handles as well, however I have temporarily removed them so I can sand & repaint them They have a couple of small paint chips I will see what works best With or without handles is a future aesthetics test

Purdue deserved to win; MSU did not.

You can look at it this way Save your stylus from damage - costs way more to replace Save your legs - fast run to the TT to lift the arm manually - although I do this now because no arm lifter can be added to my tonearm on the main Garrard 401 TT

I used the cantilever type with great success back in the seventies

Just posting this again for George since it's with them both in Hamburg. Wait isn't blues universal??? Asking for a friend!

Couldn't wait to unzip this one. 16 tracks on 3 lp's by Walter Trout (Canned Heat & John Mayall) and yup his son even played on a couple songs. Start 'em young and they become musicians! Recorded in November of 2015 after his liver transplant, released in early 2016 this thing is ahhhhmazing. I'll give this one a double thumbs up alll day long. Enjoy! One Proud papa rippin this one down with his son. Enjoy! Yea, buddy! Get ur grin on!

hello everyone ... thank you for the advice .. and I anticipate the result of my work before finishing ... I could not wait ... and I must say that I am really satisfied with the final result ... finally an engaging bass

First one up only cause it was laying there calling my name. Nice play then the volume went up for the rest.... Bwa ha ha ha!

We've had rainy, cloudy and one cloudless bright day this week. But have yet to break 50 degrees, even got into the high 30s one morning. Bugs come in and they're belly up another foot inside! Thought I caught a big quick spider out of the corner of my eye the other evening... a couple lizards came inside to get warm!

But can you get it in a carbon fiber finish? 🤣
