  1. Quiet sad that he passed away . We had a lot of fun in the CCC Thread for more than to years . We were online almost every day, especially during the corona period. We had laughed so much , but then it became quiet around him, he was online less and less often and finally not at all. Now we know why .
  2. Right this minute ...
  3. a king w/out a crown 😂
  4. @Dave1291 " all the way home " from Snowy White is great to listen to 😉, has something from Peter Green Solo Albums .
  5. There isn´t any brush ! You may be mistaking it for this card by Stanton
  6. Another Card from my collection . I bought it last christmas , wanted to make a gift to myself. It´s quiet rare . It´s near mint as well . An Ortofon SL 15 MC , has a lot in commen with the old Ortofon SPU´s from the 1960s. Sounds brilliant !
  7. Before you start with possible x-over upgrates it´s better to change the insulation material inside . I did it as well. I used the origin insulation measurement und mirrored them 1:1 inside of the RF7 , as well I damped the horn body . These optimizations had a very positive effect on the sound of the speakers that´s the daming 10 The damped Horn Body
  8. Why haven't you connected them yet? , the spikes will be used for carpets only, your RF 7 II will sound better if you gonne remove them as you´got a wooden floor. You also need to toe them more towards your listening position and with the distance to the back wall you have additional variables that affect the bass response .
  9. I never thought that my old thread would still be of interest to anyone, especially since all the important information and pictures have been deleted. Yes Sir , I still have some pics from the external X-Over ( hope that the Chief Bonehead won´t pay attention to them 😂 ) I have also completely rebuilt the decoupling construction. If you would like to know anything else, I am at your disposal at any time
  10. New ( vintage ) card in da house 😁 A fine spirit, without a flaw . With a Titanium Nitrite cantilever. Two separate toroidal coils without magnetic core. The toroidal coils are working independent of each other. This design results in lower magnetic losses and distortion, while at the same time reducing the moving mass to a minimum. And this already existed in the 1980s. Today's MC's, where such an effort is made, usually cost over 1,000 €
  11. @dirtmudd that´s the real road to red 😁
  12. Evening spin with a fantastique live album from Tangerine Dream " logos live " recorded at the Dominion London 1982
  13. Early evening spin ....Rickie Lee Jones " Pirates "
  14. First record this afternoon ..Jennifer Warnes " Famouse Blue Raincoat " The Songs of Leonard Cohen ..
  15. I don´t think it´s a hype anymore , for more than 10 years the analog audio sector has been growing steadily.
  16. Indeed Dave , same here in europe. Because of that , many music lovers prefer to buy a cd and their prices moving up as well due to their higher demand. Btw ..I own the origin pressed Album " Live in Paris" Album twice, can send you one album with german DHL 😂
  17. Not of the vinyl , but the mastering from the sound engineering / mastering in the studio.
  18. Went to the dentist yesterday morning , have a root infection in one tooth , however it´s better now ! Last afternoon I spun a double live album from 1973 , see below 🙂 containing this cult tune
  19. Here´s the x-over schematic from the origin RF7 II . Please take notice that the lines marked in red indicates a theoretical voltage divider in front of the K 701G driver.
  20. This early evening .....Ray Charles " Live " It's a Double Album ; the recordings are from two concerts ; A&B Side New Port Jazz Festival 05.07.1958; C&D Side Herndon Stadium Atlanta 28.05.1959 .... sounds damn good ! Released in 1973
  21. Yesterday´s Grooves ... and in the evening ...
  22. I´m completely innocent Dave. I thought that the forum was set offline from the management but good to see that it wasn´t. In these modern times of viral communities, Tiktok, Facebook , Instagramm etc. a classical forum like this is old fashioned. Well , I got my sec. surgery behind me and I recover fast and well. My marriage is still not divorced, the German courts are so overloaded that a divorce in our country can take up to two years. Obviously this is the case with me . It no longer bother me either. At the moment I'm trying to find a job again and have sent out a few applications and already had my first personal interviews. I think I will soon be able to sign an employment contract, as I still have 4 years until I retire. Let's see what happens. My vinyl collection is constantly growing because a sec.hand record store opened in my town several months ago. The selection is good, the prices are fair and the quality of the vinyl is excellent. As a rule, I only have to wash the used records once and they are as good as new. I´ll be back as soon as I can ....
  23. Regards from our cold and sunny germany . I had some fun with ... See you again !
  24. ...and these are the ones that I spun today ... see you 🙂
  25. Hope everybody had a good start into 2025. I had some time to spin some vinyl w/inthe last few days. The weather is wet and cold. Here´re some records that I´ve spun yesterday
