    Recommended Modern Amps

    Hegel H80. Paired with my Dynaudio X32s, it's a fantastic combination. They're not the most efficient speaker around and it handles them just fine!

    Rega vs Pro-Ject

    I've had both and prefer the Debut Carbon DC. I had the original Debut Carbon, and sold it because of hum. The new DC has eliminated the hum and is a much better TT in my opinion. Didn't really care for the Rega......

    I'm so glad we had this time together......

    Thanks for all the time and effort you've put into this forum. Having been a mod on a large internet forum, I know how much work goes into it. Enjoy your mod retirement. I resigned once, and went back for seconds about a year later. Wasn't a good move...... :D

    Music Hall MFF 2.2 Cartridge Upgrade

    Another vote for the Ortofon 2M blue. I just replaced a 2M red with the blue and it's a wonderful cartridge. Very lively and detailed. Not what I'd consider warm at all.

    Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Esprit (DC) vs 1Xpression Carbon

    I owned the original Debut Carbon and had no tracking issues at all with that tonearm. I did get rid of it because of the dreaded hum that they were prone to having. I have since bought the Debut Carbon DC, because they have seem to have corrected the hum issue. It is dead quiet and again...

    Retirement

    I'm starting my 2nd week of retirement this week! So far so good. I've been staying busy with things I've putting off doing for some time. Thankfully I have several hobbies, so I can always be busy with one of them. Today I serviced my Technics sl-23 turntable. Been wanting to do that...

    Looking for NEW Intergrated.

    After becoming so irritated I couldn't keep my vintage amps running reliably, and not having anyone in my area to fix them, I finally gave up on vintage and decided to purchase new equipment. I bought a Creek Evo 50A and a pair of Epos Epic 2 speakers and have been very happy with the combination.

    Throrens looses right channel

    Thanks, that's exactly what've I've started doing. I touch a metal lamp that's by my turntable to discharge myself. Hopefully it won't cause any more problems!

    It is a TD 160..... That certainly could be part of the problem. Thanks!

    Throrens looses right channel

    This has happened twice to me now. During the winter, there's a significant amount of static electricity in my house. A month or so I touched the cue lever and heard the electric spark of the static electricity. The next album I put on didn't have a right channel playing. I removed the...

    Tips for buying used vinyl

    Agreed. I've bought records by the lights in record stores only to later get them in good light and there are light scratches everywhere. With and LED light, they show up nicely.

    Suggestions for a good pair of bookshelfs?

    Actually both speakers have similar sound signatures. I just think the Epos have better bass and better clarity.

    Suggestions for a good pair of bookshelfs?

    Music direct has Epos Epic 2s on sale for half price right now. $399.00, normally $800.00. They are fantastic bookshelf speakers! They are very neutral sounding speakers. I've had a lot of bookshelf speakers, and for their size, they are my favorites. I have a pair of KEF Q300s. Nice...

    McKinney TX estate sale

    My son has been to a couple of estate sales that were done by the company running this one. He said everything was priced full retail. Like someone else said, I'm sure they've done their homework and know what this stuff is worth. I'll be curious to see if anyone gets a great deal!
