    My wife and I drove down to St. George and picked these up.

     

    Thanks to nu2toobs for a fun transaction.

     

    Listening to Mahler 2nd as i type!  (I like all kinds of music and so far several types have been tried out.)

    It was great meeting your wife and you Mike.  They are definitely a better fit for your room.

     

    The old girls will serve you well!

  2. Sweet looking pair of LaScalas and beautiful gear to go with them.  Definitely a great price.  Should sell quickly (if folks have funds available after Christmas).

     

    Just curious, do you have the two speakers on top of the LaScalas hooked up along with the stock midrange and tweeter?

    I might add that the cabinets are un-molested and have all of the stock drivers and horns as originally issued.

    No, I'm using the bass bin only with the Trachorns and tweeters on top.

  4. I have a pair of Lascala speakers that include all of the factory issued drivers and horns. 

     

    Also included are a pair of Dean G Alk Jr. crossovers, Trachorns for stock drivers, and APT (Eminence) tweeters(very very similar to Crites tweeters) with lenses.  

     

    These are in very good shape with the appropriate " small dings for age".

     

    Must pick up due to size, and I'd rather have you hear them to appreciate them.

     

    Must sell due to downsizing.

     

    $1200 

     

    Location is St. George, UT

  5. I've been following this thread since it's inception.  I haven't posted here in ages, and my answer is...................No, analog isn't dead, but it's in ICU.  That said, it doesn't mean it's worse or better than Digital, but I listen to analog 99.9% of the time, so it's better too me.

     

    Obligatory integral formula so people know I mean business :P

  6. I even read a review of a belt drive deck in which the turntable's (non-adjustable) slightly fast speed was described as a characteristic of the brand, which added energy to the music. That's like a car tester saying the car pulls to the left, which is helpful in left turns...

    Great analogy!!

  7. Okay................once again.............I am 53 years old...........I am only 2 years into getting to the best possible configuration........Just wondering what you have found to be the best in tube ampflication...........in your experciences.......please//////////////// I don't care about software Guys..............Please, just give me your impressions about the subject..............thanks.

    Well we have one thing in common, I'm 53 also.

    To answer your amp question, my favorite sounding tube amps are the MC30 mono blocks. They have a smooth holographic sound that I love.

    You may want to adjust your meds..........just a suggestion.

  8. And, please, WHY....can't I get paragraphs from this forum. I am all about good writing....or I try to be:)

    Because you're using probably using Safari as your browser. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Apple products, but switch to using FireFox and the problem you described will go away....

    or, you can manually type in the html for a line break (you'll need a pair). I can't type them in here or it'll just render as line breaks, but each one is: less than sign "<", the letters "br", than a greater than sign ">". repeat. It will look like this, but remove the spaces I've added: < b r > < b r >

    Easier to switch to FireFox.

    It sure would be nice if this site was kinder to apple products though.

    I have been using an iPad lately do to shoulder surgery, and out of all the browsers available, none work without entering HTML code.

    I've gotten around it by making shortcuts for paragraph breaks.

    Sorry for the rant, carry on.

  9. I should have read the board today. I didn't read your notes on the DL-103 until it was too late. I hope I didn't make too big of a mistake ordering the black Rega P5 with the Orofon 2M Blue cartridge. Brian and needle doctor is installing the cartridge and shipping it to me for a total of $1,214. And it comes with a dust cover.

    Congratulations, you did fine! [Y]The Blue will sound very nice after it's broke-in.
