Tropical temps here at 9.10 pm, didn´t left the house today . Helped a friend the last two weeks to design his garden . Now I got the bill ..can´t move anymore 😂, Friday the 2nd. of august I have a meeting in the hospital in view to my upcoming surgerys. I´ll see and I´m quite relaxed in this matter.
Today I spun two albums only...Fleetwood Mac " Tusk "
and Brand X " Do they hurt " ( lot´s of musical parallels to Weather Report )

If anyone here happens to own this and it's in good shape I would happily pay a premium for it.
Glad to hear that you parents are fine ...you may concider a download instead of trying to get the origin, even at discogs there isn´t anyone available , but as far as I understood you can download here for $ 5 ...

Hi everybody , the german footbal team lost against spain as forecasted by myself, so they´re out. The last four teams are fighting for the cup as they is Spain, France, England and the Netherlands. Let´s see which team will be in the final match, I guess it´s Spain vs England . However it´s just a game , after the european football championship the Olympic games will be held in Paris. Another big european sports event for the folks. It seems to me like 2000 years ago when the Romans had gladiators fight in their arenas, as they used to say "bread and games for the folks".

Well, have no idea if I'll ever get my belongings back. Rebuilding is $$ and the thievery of sentimental things still angers me.
So, the stereo was up next. I've got an amplifier now!
70wpc with the EL34's had move volume than this room can handle. 85wpc with the KT120's definitely means somehow this has to head for the den!
By the way... whoever said bass needed a separate amp in an analog setup has not heard one of these.
Looks nice JJ ...tell me more about , whose the manufacturer ? What´s your Preamp now ? Didn´t you bought some sec. hand prof.Klipsch Speakers a while ago ? Can´t remember so far ...

I´m quiet busy with watching the european football championship which takes place in germany. My favour is the spanish team , the last cup winner were the italiens but they lost against switzerland yesterday , so they´re out . The german team isn´t bad but I don´t think they will have a chance to reach the final game as their next opponent is probably the spanish team. However it´s a very entertaining and peaceful event here in germany . My audio gear isn´t in operation so far...
See you soon......

Tja buddies ..got a further new cartridge in my collection 😇Couldn´t resist
It´s a japanese Glanz MC cart , 0,3 mV output with a fine line needle grind , not in operation now, as I´m still waiting for the new headshell that I ordered for this cart as well, an original Micro Seiki H 77N , ordered both in Japan and will take a while till arrival
Btw ..we have summertime here , I don´t listen a lot to music or spin some vinyl at the moment . Got lot´s of daily things to manage keeping me busy and I´m still waiting to be scheduled for the first surgery in my back in the hospital .
Have a nice day everybody !

Watching your fm tuner reminds me to tell you that I have an analogue fm tuner in my set up as well . I took out my Marantz Networkplayer from my set-up and put the fm tuner into it . As I´ve been always a fan of vintage tuners I bought a couple of weeks ago a fully revised Kenwood KT 1100 . What a soundmachine !

Hey @KROCK send him a table or better yet don't send him one. Just call him once a week or so and spin snippets of his lp's. 😂 Wait! Hey @dirtmudd I've got a TD-165 sittin on a shelf behind me. Wanna rent it? My man went thru it and put an Ortofon black on it just in case mine ever went down. Got the original shipping box so it'd be cake to ship. Lil dusty. Rubber pad is in the box. Replaced it w/a Linn felt one and no the Sennheiser's don't go with it.
As far as I can sse it´s a TD 160 not a 165 and there´s a Grado Cartridge under the shell 😊
