I have a oppo bdp 83 that works well. If interested pm me.

No, it weighted eighty pounds after it was packed and was pretty large, wasn't worth the effort.

The only damage proof packaging that I got came from Audio Classics a sixty pound McIntosh amp triple boxed ! Took an hour to unbox, glass face with no damage. UPS delivered that.

Wooden crate made out of 2x4s !

I'm trying to file a complaint now. Driver said it was the other sorting distribution center fault but who knows , just glad the cartridge was not damaged.

Just reasonable care is not to much to ask for.

Yes it is ok, came from Japan and they pack it very well. I can't believe they crushed the fragile label !

Got my new phono cartridge today, thanks Fed -ex

I'll take it ! PayPal ok ?

Already replaced all three with Crites Ti diaphragms. Haven't done any crossover changes yet as I'm electronically challenged. Thinking about upgrading my Nagaoka cartridge to a mc as I already have a phono stage for a moving coil.

I found out that a few adult beverages will smooth out the high frequencies !

Being I turn 70 in a couple months it's probably My hearing that's changing ! I will just have to turn it up a little more and use the 5 band equalizer on the pre-amp. Cheap fix.

Thanks for the suggestions. They still sound great, only time I use them with subs are movies and games. Two channel ( vinyl and cd's ) listening I use older McIntosh solid state equipment. Any speakers would have to blend in with the C7 and S6 surrounds. Budget would depend on what I could get for the KLF 30s.

Don't have the space for the Klipschorns , my room is 20x13 with everything on the long wall along with two 12'' svs subs. Might look into the Forte's.
