  1. That's OK Dave, all my video looks like that.
  2. Check the integrity of the passive for anything loose that might buzz. Something may be unglued. If nothing seems to be wrong you might take it off to see if something on the inside is touching.
  3. 'Other people,' he said, 'see things and say: why - but I dream things that never were and say: why not.'" GB Shaw, that's where the Kennedy's got it.
  4. I don't know man. The combination name alone is freaky. Dorian mode is of course a derivation of a minor scale in today's terms. Lyra is an ancient name for a constellation. Do they really know this or did they just make up words that sound cool like labeling a japanese car? With a scout, I wouldn't bother thinking of a 9K upgrade. So forget that nonsense. What cartridge are you running now that makes you want better?
  5. All I know is that my mom never used agent orange, but died at 64 from emphysema and smoked all her life.
  6. First of all groom, no one in my dorm had bose thank god. You had to really crank it to get tunes all the way down the hall to the shower. Indy, I hear ya, but at the same time such erudite publications like rolling stone canned some great lp's, such as from yes and elp, the doors especially. But the political stuff has always been great. Overall I do agree with you. I'm one of those dinosaurs that still listen one side at a time.
  7. It's true in Australia because you are upside down. It was just my imagination---running away with me It was just my imagination-----running away with me. But seriously if you are happy that's what is important. None us can say, you are the one looking at it.
  8. Yeah right. People thought Van Gogh was crazy too. Oh yeah , he was.
  9. Thebes, I'm not buying it. Shame on you for teasing the lower class with a specious glimpse of ersatz twins as if we're mere playthings put here for your upper crust amusement. I realize, to a man of your sophistication and moving in the elite social circles that you do, that we might appear to be just a bunch of working class shlubs without access to the internets. But to some of us pawns of the idle rich, that picture you posted appears to be Photoshopped. All it takes is a quick Google search using the key words "Thebes, jet set, bon vivant" to find this obscure paparazzi photo apparently taken a few years ago during an oil sheik's pool party at an undisclosed location on Capri. I'm thinking that these young ladies must be the real Tawny and Tickles. You might be thinking it sput but thebes is dreaming it...
  10. Look on the bright side. Maybe they were stolen.
  11. They do. It's full of idiots. Sorry, I should'nt pre-judge them, they might also be deaf.
  12. Genius is always under appreciated in it's day. Thebes will back me up on this.
  13. Once the servo or quartz lock stops working as you describe, they pretty much aren't worth fixing is the general consensus. Silversport is correct about the Q2. One thing you might try is cleaning the pitch control with contact cleaner just to make sure where the problem lies.
  14. Oh my god! My wife bought that cd a few years ago. I put it on and promptly called it "Kenny G's Whiny Christmas." It's been our joke ever since, and never played again either...Please don't call it jazz...
  15. Yeah I saw it and could hardly believe it. What a come back!
  16. If you are talking about what wuzzer is talking about then I fail to see the point. The heresy will not add anything to the overall sound, and imo would probably detract. I could go on, but, try it if you have to, or just say no.
  17. You can look at the stylus tip under a microscope and see how much wear it has. The grommet issue will vary depending on where you live due to the issues artto mentioned. I agree with others here that for your own comfort you should look into a new cartridge so that you start with a known quantity.
  18. Progarchives has voted it the greatest prog album of all time in 2006, it currently sits at number 4.
  19. I have the 45 of that if anyone wants it. Plus, you freak out easy!
  20. How about this one from "White Christmas?" Sisters Sisters, sisters, never were there such devoted sisters. Never had to have a chaperone, no sir I'm here to keep my eye on her. Caring, sharing, every little thing that we are wearing. When a certain gentleman arrived from Rome, she wore the dress and I stayed home. All kinds of weather, we stick together. The same in the rain and sun. Two different faces, but in tight places we think and we act like one. Those who've seen us, know that not a thing can come between us. Many men have tried to split us up, but no one can. Lord help the mister who comes between me and my sister. And lord help the sister who comes between me and my man.
  21. Anderson is not well enough to tour. Howe, Squire, and White found the lead singer from a Yes tribute band and feel he is good enough. They are calling themselves "In The Present" I believe and also have Rick Wakeman's son on keyboards.
