    2325 stubborn power amp (long post)

    I picked up a 2325 a couple of years ago with one dead channel (Left channel power amp). The unit stayed in protection unless you unplugged that channel's power amp. Swapping the power amps to the other side: same result. Someone else re-capped the protection board and replaced the relay...

    Snow is on point!

    Sold a cartridge to AK'er Snow. Paid so fast I'm sure there's melted permafrost in a straight line from his place to mine. Thank you Snow!

    Hammerite/Hammertone paint

    Anybody able to get a decent result using the Hammerite "hammer-finish" aerosol cans? I can spray lacquer on a guitar and polish it to a mirror-like finish, but this stuff is not really living up to it's name. I've tried thin coats, thick coats, thin over thick, thick over thin and tomorrow I'm...

    Ummm, what the... (Marantz 27)

    Okay, weird business for the week (my week anyway). I'm cleaning up a Marantz 27 for a friend. Crack the wood case and...I think I know what's happening here after my initial confusion. Anybody else want to have a stab at it before I put it in writing? For clarity's sake, we're looking...

    AtmaSphere Assembly video

    I thought this was kind of cool. It's a short video showing the assembly of one of the AtmaSphere M60 OTL tube amps. No afilliation. http://www.atma-sphere.com/

    Empire Build

    About a year ago, I bought an Empire 398. It came to me in a drawer-style plinth. Now that I've decided I like the Empire enough that it's going to stick around for a while, I built a new plinth for it. It's not an exact copy but as a proof-of-concept attempt, it'll work. I am going to refine...

    Three great 2013 Albums ...

    My favorite albums of 2013: Sarah Jarosz "Build Me Up From Bones" Queens of the Stone Age "Like Clockwork" Melt Banana "Fetch" These three albums surprised me, I wasn't suspecting them to be much and all three knock me on my ass. Especially the Sarah Jarosz record. I'm not...

    Sounds better than it has a right to...

    I picked up this little Bogen DB212 the other day. This evening I plugged it into the Realistic Nova 9's and ran some R2R tapes through it in the back room. Sounds pretty good, I must say;certainly good enough for the back bedroom.

    Qotsa?

    Anybody else like the new Queens of the Stone Age record? I'm just hearing it and it's as good as anything they've done imo- and one of my favorites of 2013.

    Mini Advent repair

    I have a pair of Advent "Mini-Advent" speakers that need new surrounds. Are surround kits available? These were a throw-in on a bigger deal so I've never heard them in proper form- Are they even worth messing with?
