Dig out that old Arlo Guthrie album (if you have it) and play Side 1 of "Alice's Restaurant"! A Thanksgiving tradition (at my house)

HI. I need to ship two LP's by mail. I may need to make a record mailer as I cannot find anyone that sells them near me. Any ideas? Does the Post Office sell them there? thanks!

I know that I am "shooting in the dark" here, but, I cannot find any ammunition. Either in a store or online. Anyone know of a source that actually has any quality ammo for sale? I get all kinds of email ads for various guns. But, an empty gun is just an expensive stick or a rock. thanks

just saw this one. Looks to be in nice shape. No affiliation

After working for the same company for 30+ years, I officially retired October 02. Still trying to get used to not going to work everyday. Still feels kinda weird.

I have an "Old Hickory Furniture" porch rocker with a reed-cane bottom. I am going to need to replace the old caning. Yesterday I ordered some hickory splint material. Anyone ever do this themselves? Going to be my first one. Lead time on the material is 4 to 6 months. Only a very few people...

I stopped into a local store called "Vintage Stock", yesterday afternoon, to take a quick look through their used record bins. It had been awhile since I have looked there as I never find anything worth buying. Their stock of used LP's has dwindled down to just two partial plastic bins (maybe...

I cannot paste the link from this iPad. Pioneer SX1250 with a pair of Bose 901s. $2,500. Not mine.

In my pile-o-records, I found a MONO pressing of The Beatles' "Rubber Soul". It does not sound very good on my turntables. I have set the receivers to "Mono" mode. But, the dynamics are just not there as with a stereo recording. Am I doing something wrong? Or, do mono recordings need a...

My old '96 Tahoe is having some Fuel-related issues, So, I decided to replace the Fuel Injectors. The best price I could find was from Summitt Racing.com. Ordered the part (OEM AC/Delco.) which is a re-packaged Delphi on December 9th from Summit. This is the same Spider Injector unit that is...

While doing some TT switching around (sending out my idler for a retread), I decided to swap out my speakers. I have been listening to my Advents for several months. I like 'em a lot. But, My KLH Model Twenty Threes haven't been used for about 4 months. So, I hooked them up and was almost...

Just wondering if anyone may know a source for the Garrard emblem for a Lab 80? I had to build a new wooden base for it out of an old piano. Solid, heavy oak with a mahogany veneer. And while it looks nice, it just seems like it needs a little something more to set it off.

I have been listening to records since I was about 13 years old. So, for the last 48 years or so, I have never used a 45. Only albums. I guess it just wasn't the thing to do in my social group. Anyone else?

Started watching a Belgian detective series on PBS. It is in Dutch (but subtitled in English). Kind of a "Monk-Like" character. Obsessive-Compulsive college professor in Antwerp solving crimes. Not a bad show. Probably a lot better if you speak Dutch. Oh yeah, it's called Professor T...

I have a few of questions regarding re-tipping a stylus: Can a stylus that has a conical be re-tipped with an eliptical? Are re-tipped styli "better" than buying a new one? Is this more for higher end cartridges? styli? Is the canteliever (sp) typically replaced at the same time? What does this...

Found out today that my Klipsch SW450, powered Subwoofer cannot be repaired. It was affected by a lightning strike last Fall. So, I need a new one. And, I am looking for recommendations. This is for a HT system. Thanks in advance!

I am getting ready to order a new stylus for my R25EDT cartridge. TTN.com has the 760DED as the replacement for the original Shure Stylus for $29.00. With free shipping. I was wondering if anyone here has used one and what their opinion was? Are "BLISS" styli any good? I could also buy one...

Just read a report on the Foxnews website. So sad. Parkinson's is the DEVIL!

Watched the new Netflix Documentary this weekend. Learned alot of stuff that was new to me. That guy was a disturbed individual, for sure! This saga occurred during my late teens/early twenties. Back then we didn't have any internet or cable tv. And, since the events happened so far from my...

It is supposed to snow and be really cold this weekend here. I am going to put my old Hitachi receiver and KLH Model Seventeens back in service. I haven't listened to the Hitachi SR804 for a couple of years, now. Haven't turned up the KLHs for several months. Going to give the SX1250 a break...

For those who are experiencing the Random Misfire Code on their older Chevys, I too had this problem. After researching, I determined that there were many potential causes. I first tried the simple solutions: Changed plugs, wires, cap. Got a little better. But it was still occurring...

Records came yesterday. I am very pleased with the selection and the fine condition of these albums! I would definitely recommend contacting Dan if you are wanting some really nice records. I will buy from him again! Thanks Dan!

For some unknown reason, after being pretty happy with my gear (I thought I was finished with searching), I have an urge to check out a Tube Amp. I know virtually nothing about them. Never had any experience operating one. And, I am not saying that I am ACTIVELY looking (yet). Or, that I am...

Asking whether the R25EDT is worthy of a new stylus. I like Shure Cartridges. I have the M91 and the M95. I would like, someday to get a V-15type III but pricing is kind of out of my range.
