    So, my new HK990 came yesterday...

    Direct. I'm hoping it works out. I nearly went with a straight Emotiva setup but bought the H/K for its featureset and dual-mono layout. I'm hoping I don't regret the decision, particularly given that Emotiva carries a five-year warranty on nearly everything they sell.

    So, my new HK990 came yesterday...

    [tl;dr: my big shiny expensive new amplifier came yesterday and it doesn't work. I'm venting.] I haven't been posted at AK in some time. But like many of you who I am guessing are reading this, I started out with used gear, "vintage". My space was limited and my budget moreso. So I went...

    Technics SL 1200 vs a 1600 SL 1600 MKII

    This. That said, the 1600 MK2 tends to be fussy with its maintenance. The automatic mechanism is very complex, and a lot can go wrong with time. Little nylon gears that embrittle and crack, tiny rubber belts that crumble to dust, and elderly electronics that cease functioning correctly for no...

    A brief visit from a very vintage Dynaco A 25 and an A 10

    I had a set of recapped A10s a number of years ago. They reproduce voice well - NPR sounded nice - but I was never impressed with much else. Eventually I busted up the cabs (completely trashed) for the drivers. I've never heard a 25.

    Ann Arbor / Metro Detroit deals

    I saw that same ad. The cabs with blue speaker cloth and adjustment knobs were empty. However, he did have a second pair of apparently home-built or custom cabinets a la 1950s/1960s with what appeared to be JBL drivers.

    Luxman L100 amp

    Go get it ASAP. It was TOTL, and I've heard it's one of the best Lux pieces from that era.

    Unidentified 8" Full Range Drivers.

    Maybe University. It's probably not possible to ID without pictures.

    "200 Watt Stereo Shopping Cart"...

    Yeah, car batteries. Personally, I can't believe the guy is serious. The whole ad just seems like a joke.

    AR1's - Detroit

    Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I sold a single Altec 755a on the 'Bay right before the economic meltdown and got about what this guy is asking for the AR-1s. That said, I don't think I'd be so lucky now. These ones are really far too nice to hack up also - I'm with winters860 on that one.

    Furniture type speakers, for big sound?

    Infinity RSIIB. Maybe you could pass them off as some sort of modern art. Bring money - and the most powerful amplifier you can lay hands on. Or you can get a set of Magnepans and use them as room dividers.

    AR-3 - different finishes?

    (Holy old thread, Batman!) Sorry, speaker was sold a while back. I never parted it out, it was far too nice cosmetically for me to do that.

    Computer: Audio Interface: E-MU 0404

    I've had my eye on the USB version of this for a while now. I've always thought that my Macbook Pro had a great audio out, but I accidentally damaged the jack a while back. It still works, but the connection is a bit on the iffy side now.

    48 Khz Hi Fi ?

    I have a UCA202. It sucks as a DAC. If you're just using it to convert USB into SP/DIF, it should be fine. Otherwise, buy something different. It's noisy, with flabby bass - the quality just isn't that great.
