    Happy 60th Birthday to audiodon!

    Happy Happy Birthday !!! friend and neighbor, the Fishercat, Don. How lucky am I to live down the street from a fellow record buff and audiophile. I had no idea when we first swapped records many years ago that there would be so much we'd have in common, how much I'd learn from you and how...

    Summer 2017 New England FrankenFest - June 24th in Clinton MA

    Jim -- Thank you for creating the AK Frankinfest T Shirt. I'll be ordering a couple for sure. As many of you know I love dogs & record players. But whatever the design, I'll be v happy and proud to wear it. I'm looking forward to the fest. I missed the last couple.

    Photos of celebrities with turntables.

    Can anyone fix a Lexicon RV-8 for audiodon?

    oh, now I know why Don has mentioned how much easier it is to service vintage tube gear with point to point wiring vs. transistors. I did not know there was a problem with the big multichannel Lexicon. I don't know if you still have it but it would be well worth talking to Jim Fuller about it...

    Hi, I am a maybe. I am doing the ALS walk with Don's team of family and friends. It starts at 11 and should wrap up around 1:30-2:00 pm. I will have to see how I'm feeling. My back has been very uncooperative the last few months. The ALS walk takes place at Carson Beach -- just a half hour...

    Lenco L-78 project back from the dead, and a great AK story to go with

    Beautiful table. I love the simple elegant design and the use of walnut and how it is finished. I have not had the pleasure of trying out a Lenco table or the JVC arm. For alignment, I use several different tools including the Dennison Protractor. I have become a big fan of arc protractors...
