seti Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Wow those are crazy.....The rectangle Haywood will have to go elsewhere. They had the circular table to match but I ran out of money. There was someone that had seen the couch on Friday but needed to measure to see if it would fir. I called the guy on Sunday to pick it up... They aren't open on Sunday : ) Gotta move quick : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEvan Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Quite unexpectedly I picked a dB Systems moving coil preamp yesterday from a neighbor on my block at his garage sale. $3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEvan Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Again, not a thrift store, but I bought a beautiful Luman T117 tuner from a local Craigslist ad this morning. Just beautiful. Twenty bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdnfay1 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I picked up a Phillips 312 turntable at one of my local flea markets for 3 bucks. It dosen't have the slide-in head shell and they are like hens teeth. Can the tone arm on this table be replaced? There are alot of local flea markets and thrift stores in my area, all with large selections of vinyl. Thought it might be fun to tinker with.

Bigdnfay1 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Just last week a client gave me a Sansui 2000x. She said it had only been used at christmas time for the last 20 years. Hooked it to the khorns in the master bedroom with an oppo 971. Man it sounds great. Gives taking a shower a whole new meaning.

BLSamuel Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Our daughters were out and locked their keys in the car so went to unlock the door for them and stopped by the local Goodwill on the way back to the office. CD selection was the skimpiest I'd seen there. Found a couple of LPs that should be worthwhile. John Fischer - Inside Light LS-5711 1977 Boots Randolph - Boots With Strings Monument SLP 18066 1966 They had an Oscar Peterson trio live album cover was in pretty good shape but the vinyl was kind of iffy.... but might clean up nicely and sound pretty good. Hard to tell. Nice and clean looking albums sometimes sound pretty noisy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Degarmo and Key open for Petra a very very very very very very very long time ago. Wasn't even old enough to drive myself to the concert nor able to leave early. On another note I picked up a RezBand - Hostage LP this weekend. I was a bigger fan of the band DA or Daniel Amos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nguyendot Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Update.. more cool stuff from thrift stores. Found a Quintet II 5.0 system for $25 in great condition the other week. . Then last night I went to Goodwill and found some giant boxes with "Klipsch" on them. They turned out to be these: $75 took both out, both in awesome condition with just one minor scratch down the side of one (I'll fix it somehow). Functionally? Perfect.

BLSamuel Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 From the Goodwill by the Castleton Square Mall in Indy..... LPs Carole King - Thoroughbred - A&M 1975 Lady Antebellum - Lady Antebellum - Capitol 2008 - Factory sealed virgin vinyl. Produced in this century. $1.06 looks a bit too country for my tastes but maybe it'll be more pop than country? yep country http://ladyantebellum.com/index.htm - nominated for 2 country grammy awards in 2009 and 2010 Promotional vinyl. Didn't know they put out promotional vinyl. CDs 2nd Chapter of Acts - 20 - Sparrow 1992 Various Artists - The Earth Day Album - EMI / Earth Day Canada 1991 The Rippingtons - Life In The Tropics - Peak 2000 I've yet to find big boxes with Klipsch on 'em....

Just what area of the Twilight Zone do you live in and can you provide a map? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
