  1. Hmm, this may be something a little bit more "obscure". By Stevie Wonder: This one´s really made with disc-changers in mind, thick rims, disc A with sides one and four and disc B with sides two and three. So, order of playing is: Disc A, Side one - Disc B drops down - side two, turn Disc B over - side three, remove disc B, turn over disc one and play side four.
  2. Music´s good, but must be washed a second time, i think... Some strange hissing...
  3. So, there are a few tracks that i coud enjoy after all. But the LP has been through a lot... camp fire - But i only paid three bucks for it. After that I playyed my Nectar LP again, I´ve washed a second time, after I filtered the cleaning fluid and got the fine dirt out of it. That one played nice and smoothe.
  4. Early Pink Floyd. So far this one´s borderline for me, psychedelic is not my forte...

    I think there are similarities, yes. They´ re from Finland: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratovarius Bought most of their CDs used, while i was in Japan 15 years ago.
  6. I don´t think it appropriate to give a like to Your post, but i agree to what You write. We can be happy that we have our families, friends, music and so much more...
  7. George, let´s say You want to use it for many more years to come. The way You said it, it sounds depressing...
  8. Oiling and waxing in Progress. Work must be inspected and verified:
  9. This reminds me of my childhood days. Growing up in Western Berlin, this was what my parents listened to on the radio, AFN Berlin & RIAS 2. My father liked Motown:
  10. David is always welcome: Notice the artistic placement of the price tag...
  11. I´m very worried... It seems DHL misplaced the shipment with the tweeters I had send off to be re-magnetized. Last time movement was tracked was on the 22nd of March. Only found out about this, when I called the shop, since I didn´t receive any messages of my tweeters getting there. Have to wait now.
  12. @wuzzzerMark, do You remember where Roy and Trey commented on this matter, was it here in the Forum? I would like to know more. Should I try to bother the Chief with this? 😉
  13. Ok, if Roy and Trey say so, and hey, they work for 45 years now, right? Thanks Wuzzer, for the quick input!
  14. Something else I noticed when I took out the drivers; I´ve read here somewhere, that it can be beneficial to turn the woofers 180° when putting them back in. If I do that, the connecting cables to the XOs will be too short. I thought about using the the wires that connected the terminals to the XOs and buy new ones to replace them. That way all wires coming from the XOs going to the drivers will be the same (original). What AWG are the internal wires? Saw it somewhere, but forgot...
  15. Further progress, painted the motor boards and the backs of the cabinets this weekend: The labels suffered a little from the masking tape, but the important print is ok- There were some very minor mishaps from painting, a matter of a little sanding. Once that is done, I can start oiling and waxing the wood.
  16. I admit, I´m always torn, the vintage stuff definitely has the bigger cool factor. 😎 But the little AS201 that powers my KG 1.5 now already sounds very nice, so it´ s bigger brethren must be even better. Sigh, so many choices...
  17. Last one for tonight:
  18. By the way, I´ve been thinking about getting a pure stereo amp for some time now. My first choice was one of the recent mid-tier Yamahas. But now I my go the vintage way, seen a lot of nice rigs lately, for pairing with my Heresys and TT. I like this one a lot, Kenwood KA 8150:
  19. "If only my living room was a tad bigger..." hm, George?
  20. Bought from a member in the DUAL Forum. Gently used: I only ever knew "Keiyleigh" from the radio, looks like i´ll like the rest of the album too. Is it just me or does the singer sound like Peter Gabriel sometimes?
  21. Freshened up the inner edges on the motorboards. Next will be the structured paint.
