joessportster Posted May 11, 2005 Author Share Posted May 11, 2005 well lets see i am mainly waiting on craig to get the vrd,s out, i have the blueberry, the basis tt, my nakamichi rx 505, marantz model 125 tuner. but still running everything off the dynaco st 70(its an old original unit that is in desperate need of a tune up) the blueberry really made things quiet helped tons as far as background noise (hiss or humming) the sound is still very nice even with the old dynaco, i will probably send the dynaco to craig for a complete makeover and keep it for a second system in the future the tubes make a heck of a differance from solid state that i sold off to start this project i just wish i had a better room for soundstage but that will come a little later i guess so what would you need to make a dust cover as far as measurements etc..., and an estimated cost would also be a good thing Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebes Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Hey Rick, I though the acrylic cover was for your toaster oven. What's that thing it's covering. Looks like the inards of an Italian washing machine. Handles? We don't need no stinkin handles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't fit under the cupboards. "What's that thing it's covering. Looks like the inards of an Italian washing machine." That's what I like about you Thebes, you don't miss a trick (or Trixie). "Handles? We don't need no stinkin handles." How else will we address you? I'd feel uncomfortable with "Hey, butthead" every time I wanted your attention. I'm not like Trixie. IMO Thebes is much better. Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piranha Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 What's your budget? I am guessing no more than $8-9K? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedball Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Thebes is very talented, a couple friends of mine work with polycarbonate making lap trays for wheel chairs @ a hospital. Nice job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Joe the problem for me is that it's mostly flowing AWAY from me. I just lived like a pauper through my 20's and 30's, when I should have been having fun. The good news is that now that I'm old and alone at least I've got cash! 3d-that turntable is incredible, and Thebes work is beautiful as well. Wish I had something worthy of enclosing in this manner. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
