    Need info Jbl-l19

    I recently acquired a pair of L-19's in need of re-foaming. Starting researching "how to's" I noticed the center cone on images I looked at was inverted (concave). Mine are convex. They are jbl woofers with serial numbers. Any reason why my center cone would be different? Thank you in advance...

    Electro-Voice FR12-2

    Picked up a set today in excellent condition. Don't know much about them except was (I think) used in schools, Churches, etc.. Their pretty crude looking industrial I guess. Maybe 1970's with screw speaker connections. But anyway, hooked these up in my living room and they sound fantastic! I...

    Subwoofer connection to vintage SS receivers

    I hear conversations that vintage Klipsch Heresy's could benefit greatly from a subwoofer. How would you do that with say using a Pioneer SX-1050 or Marantz 2325???

    Help w/stylus for Tech1200mk

    I purchased a 1200mk2 with a Shure VN35HE cartidge. Not real sure of the stylus. The previous owner told me, but it didn't ring a bell brand wise and I don't want to take it off right now. It sounds decent with unknown hours. Recommended replacement stylus please or I have a little used M97xe...

    custom plinth

    Thought I would share... My Yamaha P-500 has always been very susceptible to rumble, so I tried some suggestions. Its feet are wearing tennis balls then placed on bricks. Much quieter now, but very silly to look at, hence the plinth I built. I wouldn't think you would see too many p-500's...

    Speaker Showdown

    I came across a pair of mint Pioneer hpm-40's that I just had to have because of all the good I've heard about this series. Now granted I know they're not 60's or 100's. Here's the showdown and opinions I would like to hear; I also have a mint pair of Adnent/1's. I would believe these two...

    Pioneer sx-1050 vs Marantz 2325

    I'm currently using a nice 1050, it's been recently serviced and running good. I have a chance to purchase a 2325 but would want to get it checked out (additional money)....Question for comments please. It seems there is a higher value and praise for Marantz would I benefit in switching to the...

    Rumble with Yamaha p-500

    I've tried numerous ways to keep feedback out of my tt set up. Extremes of placing folded blankets,etc to let me turn the volume up. It's not a placement issue imo, I've tried many. Ready to give up. Any recommendations for a vintage tt that's is not so susceptible to rumble at medium to high...

    Signet MK110E MC

    I have a Signet moving coil cart that I purchased in 1983. Used very, very little because I just couldn't get comfortable with the sound when I bought it. It has been stored for 30 plus years. Unfortunately as seen in the picture the stylus is bent. Does anyone have thought on value?? Thanks...

    Dual 1209

    Hello, I'm concerned about a little bit of hum that happens when I bring the tonearm over to start the platter movement. It's quite when everything is powered up and the tonearm is on its rest. I've checked the ground wire and the cartridge seems to be correct to the head shell. Asking if this...

    Dual

    Just picked up a Dual 1209 for $125. What do you all think? He had it at $200 but talked him down. It is really clean with no wear marks. It has a Pickering cart, but just ordered the Shure 97 everyone talks about on here.

    Platter Mat

    On recommendation I bought a felt mat to lay over my original rubber mat. This was supposed to help in absorbing and add dampening. The mat was quite high price for just felt! Question...don't know if the benefits are worth the static cling I am getting now, it even sticks to the album when I...
