That *&%#@ scientifically fraudulent 1980 "Dietary Guidelines for Americans" put out by the USDA, has resulted in people eating mostly sugary carbs 5 or 6 times a day, and their blood sugar looks like a roller coaster. Every down swing finds them needing to eat again.....and again. The results are in.....that plan is NOT working. I'm off to the lounge... Good info in "The China Study' on the corruption behind the food pyramid. I followed that ridiculous thing for years. One major flaw in the China Study, he used milk protein as a proxy for all meat, so if milk protein is bad all meat is bad, poor logic.

DMH Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 I just realized that I also own this very nice JM Tercel! I've had this phono pre-amp for so long that i forgot all about it. It's also going to be checked out by the tech at the audio repair shop here in FW under the supervision of Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOW - the inside looks like I just built it yesterday! Good news, I don't see any blown parts. I can't even recall the DIP settings, but I will dig out the docs and check. What cart did you ever try this with? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMH Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Yeah, it does look nice and clean inside! I didn't even think about it until you mentioned it and no blown parts, how cool is that! I think it was a Sumiko Blackbird cartridge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealMarkDeneen Posted August 27, 2022 Author Share Posted August 27, 2022 @DMH Isn't that a moving coil cartridge? Because your Tercel is not fitted with the "Cream" option which is a moving coil stepup transformer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisK Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Greetings Mark!! Still think about you every time I fire up my Peach. On another front, not sure if you heard, but my lifelong best friend Josh passed Feb, 2021. Josh was a big JMA fan as you likely recall. My wife and I were up in NoCal this past weekend and visited his wife. We had a good listen to his system and drank some great wine. All the best!

Oh my, he was such a great guy. It doesn't seem like he was even my age. But, I guess "stuff happens." Very sad news. I had lots of good convos with Josh.
