What are the important functional/condition points to note when selling a reel to reel tape deck? Thanks!

In good working condition, recently serviced, etc. Thanks!

Doesn’t say:

I am finally getting around to using my ultrasonic record cleaner. I bought an isonic several months ago. Here’s the record cleaning routine the manufacturer recommends: https://youtu.be/0PJUB9HTLWo In summary: run in water with cleaning solution for five minutes, drain water and...

OK that is what I thought...I bought it preassembled from the maker, so I will email him and ask. I don't have the schematic since I didn't buy the kit. Thank you.

Hello, all. I finally have a preamp with tape loops (yay!). I have put an equalizer in the tape loop…but I am having problems. I believe I have it set up correctly. The tape out from the preamp goes to the input on the equalizer…and the output on the equalizer goes to the tape in on the...

Hello all. Due to my room layout and other logistical concerns, I likely need about 20' interconnects (single ended) between my preamp and my amps. I know there can be negative impacts on the sound with interconnect runs this length...what cables would you recommend? In the past, I have used...

Oh sweet, I see that it was addressed already, thank you!

^^Anybody have any comments on this question? Want to buy one of these but would like to save the $120 if I can.

But if it can’t be programmed to the Firestick remote - that’s probably do-able!

As the title says...any suggestions for a DAC with a remote (and multiple inputs) that can be controlled by the Amazon Firestick remote? Not looking for the best sound quality, just looking for TV convenience in a vintage setup.

Isonic owners...is it correct to say that this: https://smile.amazon.com/iSonic-P4875II-Ultrasonic-Protectors-Concentrate/dp/B07FP9XZ9N/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=isonic+record+cleaner&qid=1609884799&sr=8-5 Plus this...

I do not have the luxury of separate listening and TV rooms unfortunately. . I am willing to put a blanket over it or hang a thick curtain or whatever...got any ideas on that?

Thank you! That makes good sense ... but ... I though that conventional wisdom dictates that shorter speaker cables are more important than shorter interconnects? Also, I’ve tried to keep speaker cable runs to the absolute minimum because of the damping factor of my amp (a McIntosh MC2105 with...

Hrmmmm? Any ideas? Are these dumb questions?

Howdy all! I am in the process of arranging my basement (for both layout and sound) and moved my speakers to the end of the room where the fireplace is. Much nicer layout, but if I want to use the fireplace I can’t leave equipment on it. Components are currently jumbled across the fireplace...

I thought this was a delight -

Thank you! So, to clarify the chain: Tape Out -> Rek-O-Kut -> EQ -> Monitor In ?

I don’t get it. :)

Is there any concern with running TWO equalizers through a single tape loop? I have a ton of 78 records to listen to and want to use a Rek-O-Kit Re-Equalizer in the tape loop...but I want to use a normal graphic equalizer at the same time. Thank you!

See my reply above, meant to quote/reply to your message but quoted cjmustang instead. Too high!

No, way too high. I bought mine from Audio Classics (so restored to spec by the best Mac dealer/repair shop in the USA) for $1,100 plus shipping.

Thanks, I’ll look those up... Anyone got an opinion on the Shure SE-215?

Howdy all! Looking for a good set of IEMs for travel that I can use on the plane or in a hotel room...here's my wish list: Excellent sealing (don't want to hear ambient noise) Neutral tone (maybe warm-ish side of neutral, my main concern is clarity) Under $100 Any suggestions? Thank you!

The recent "modern" one with the remote? That seems both hard to find and quite a bit more expensive...unless I am missing something. I do love "vintage" looking stuff. It's supposed to be similar (or the same as) a C2300 internally, right?
