    Is a Dual 1210 desirable. Or how about a Realistic LAB 250

    Wow. I just at the specs of all my junk. The Pioneer puts out the least. But does more watts necessarily mean better performance? 1. Pioneer 35w per ch 2. Marantz 40w per ch 3. MCS 45w per ch. What a shocker. Maybe I got the wrong receiver hooked up to begin with,,,lol.

    Out of this pile "O" resisters I have, if the Pioneer was working properly could I assume it would be my best piece?

    Well I'm going to embarrass myself. But is this considered a pre-amp. Not sure if it works. Can you guys tell I know nothing about electronics. But I can cut you a set of stairs for you house,,,lol.

    Is a Dual 1210 desirable. Or how about a Realistic LAB 250

    A friend of mine who was an electronics tech passed away. His wife found this Pioneer in the trunk of his car when she sold it. So she gave it to me. Who knows how long it's been there. He was a severe hoarder. I've only been running it for a very short time. I've just been listening to...

    Turns out the thumping is in my receiver. Nothing to do with the turntable. I completely disconnect the turntable and it's still there. It's only in the "phono" position. Maybe that's why this Pioneer SX-650 was free.

    It's all over,,,,lol. I ended up getting it for $100. I hope I did all right. It does have a crack in the cover. He said the only thing he ever did to it was change out the rca cable. Now I have to go learn about it. Dave Bruebeck is telling me to take five and clean me,,,,lol. I'm hearing a...

    Is there 2 models. A mk1 and a mk2? If so which would be better.

    Is a Dual 1210 desirable. Or how about a Realistic LAB 250

    So I guess you guys all agree that the technics is the best choice out of all that I'm looking at. Does it get into the serious audiophile quality yet. Or not so much yet,,,,,lol

    Is a Dual 1210 desirable. Or how about a Realistic LAB 250

    Would the Realistic be considered a entry level tt. It's not in the higher end audiophile quality is it. I wouldn't guess so. But that's why I'm asking,,,lol. I did find a Technics SL-1410. Would it be leaps and bounds better than the Realistic. But the guy wants $125 for it. If it's not a lot...

    Is a Dual 1210 desirable. Or how about a Realistic LAB 250

    As far as the Realistic goes. It's at a flea market. No way to test it. If he won't budge on the price would it be worth his $65 asking price. Would I be better of waiting for a Pioneer. Or would the Realistic be a good enough, nice enough unit? I'm very hard of hearing so I don't consider...

    Is a Dual 1210 desirable. Or how about a Realistic LAB 250

    Just curious how you guys feel about the Dual 1210. This one has the United Audio base. I can get it for $75. Would this be considered a little better quality TT. I'm supposed to go look at it tomorrow. I have a Audio Technica AT-LP60. But it sounds horrible. I also have a Garrads GT-35. It...

    DLK Model 2. Are these worth restoring. Specs please

    Thanks for the reply. I made a little progress. I tried a blow dryer and an iron on a towel to get the big white mark off. No luck. But then I washed my hands and dried them on my dish towel. It was fairly wet. So I thought hummm,,,lol. I used the iron over the wet towel. I'm very pleased...

    DLK Model 2. Are these worth restoring. Specs please

    After initially walking away from these DLK Model 2's for $45, I decided I didn't want to go home empty handed after a 45 minute drive. So I called the guy back and after some back and forth I got them for $20. I'm not sure they're worth it since they're kinda beat up. No grills, cones are all...

    Please help me find some capacitors,,, speaker diagnosis

    Please help me find some capacitors,,, speaker diagnosis

    I hope I have the vm hooked up right and doing it right,,,lol. Each speaker has 1 x woofer, 2 x mid, 1 x tweeter. Didn't test the woofer since I know it's working. On the left speaker the tweeter has no readings. One mid has no readings. The other mid has con and .5 ohm. It's supposed to be 6...
