What are you Listening To Right Now? - and more

[Dusty Ol'Man]

OK, I'll ask you How do you know how? Although I am positive I can trust Speedy. After all, he is a stand-up guy on thread from what I can tell.

I will tell you the back story later. Suffice it to say that I bought my tt from him. I have no complaints.

I need to make something like that, but I don't have the ability to do so in a small apartment. I'd gladly pay someone to make plates for me, but they will need to be the exact size of the original B&W binding posts. I was actually going to just cut up some scrap balsa wood or something like that and make a set of small plates. Would rather have some nice ones made tho.. we will see. Been super busy this week. Cant wait for the weekend.

That would work. Maybe something stronger. Box store have small lumber. I used those wood light switch covers once, Used the 2 holes to mount to cab, Then two hole drilled for posts. Painted, Done and cheap.

I can't stop thinking about this. I've always wanted this, but could not afford $8.8K when it came out....Sony CDP-R1 / DAS-R1 Combo These are the actual pictures of the unit that is for sale/ Can get this for about $1.8K

These pics are from the NET:
This is the DAC, DAS-R1

This is the Transport CDP-R1

Together the combo weighs over 80 lbs!

Why thanks. I got a table to Lou in Louisiana without being destroyed. I was on the edge for awhile though.

@Rob84 it was the best pack job I had ever seen. The tt never moved inside the box and I don't think it could have been protected better. Again, great job Robert!

OK guys, have to give a lesson then head home. More "Jazz and conversation, from the foot of Mt. Belzoni" later...

If anyone besides the absent FOH can reference the above quote (without Google-cheating!), you will win a shiny new "No-Prize," in the words of the great Stan Lee.

Is it wrong of me for thinking the lamp is cooler than the speakers in that picture?

Interesting Pic of the inner brick columns of our church built in 1859. The restoration project will be done in about 3 weeks.

Yes it is...my "number" for a set of Ws is no more than 75 shipped. They look in pretty good shape.

Thanks Brother. I'll take this as great, since you are our resident RS authority!

Starting now an evening with Spirituals - enchanting, very American music!

I would like to emphazise that I know that the n word is in our days not acceptable anymore.

So absolutely no offense is intended, you know how I am...

Its a genres, not the "N" word. Its an actual style of music. No one should be offended. If they are, its due to a lack of knowledge, not the word.

Kind Regards,
John
