    Has the USPS Lost Its Mind?

    Ordered a video from Australia on March 5th. Parcel arrived in NYC on March 15th (100 miles from my location). But then it is sent to Florida 1,500 miles away where it has been bouncing around for the past ten days. Is there a word in the English language that can describe this level of...

    MC2.1KW 75th Anniversary

    Just noticed the writing on the vertical strips inside the window of the power modules. Are these strips functional? Does anybody know the meaning of the lettering? :idea:

    MC2125 & C32 Description of Repairs

    Always glad to get the email from Ryan when my units are ready. This is the first I've seen a MC2125 test at 162 wpc. This and my other MC2125 usually tested around 145 wpc when previously serviced. I left it to their discretion whether to go ahead and replace all the ribbon connectors in...

    C32: Right Channel Output Loss at 1 & 2

    My C32 began dropping output to the right channels for amplifiers connected at the switchable jacks 1 & 2 while output to the main (always on) outs continue to function normally. The channel reverse selector has no effect. The problem is intermittent and when it happens, the rights drop out...

    Sony XDR-F1HD

    Just picked up this little tuner. McIntosh tuner designer Richard Moderaffi told me about this unit eleven years ago saying it outperforms his baby, the landmark MR78. I was stunned. Living in an area with signals that are not only weak but compounded by multipath, I've endlessly been...

    C32 Expander

    I've had a C32 for about 8 years now and never really bothered much with the expander function but lately I've been experimenting a bit with it when playing records. With the control at the 1.2 setting, the frictional noise of the stylus against the record is significantly reduced but it also...

    Odd C32 Issue.

    This morning a strange issue appeared with my C32. Right channel output is low and badly distorted - ONLY on the output jacks #1 & #2. These jacks are switchable from the front panel SPKRS 1 & 2 buttons. However the MAIN output jacks (always on, not switchable) output is normal on both...

    Wow & Flutter Phone App - How Reliable?

    I was recently introduced to a phone app that measures turntable wow & flutter. To do this, the phone is simply placed directly on a rotating platter and after several seconds it measures the speed down to 1/100th of an RPM along with percentage of W & F. I find this app questionable since...

    Pioneer PL-518 - Dead L Channel - **UPDATE

    Left channel went dead for no apparent reason. What I have done: 1) Moved connectors from PH1 inputs to PH2 on preamp. Still no left channel. 2) Swapped L & R connectors - Now no sound in right channel. 3) Swapped cartridge/headshell assembly with that from other Pioneer PL-518 with...
