I live locally but will be away all weekend. With the huge amount to be sold, maybe they'll have a week two...

Asking prices on NIB Thorens TD115 and Pioneer 707 were $500 each when sale opened on Friday. I wonder what they agreed to sell them for.

I'm using a pair with a C29/MC2505 combo. Happy with them, although they replaced pretty modest cables so I don't have much to compare them to. Although the coating is thin, it is quite tough. The stiffness of the wire is a bit of a challenge to manipulate.

I have also had several pieces serviced by Tim, and concur with the positive comments above. I won't hesitate to use his services again if need be.

I'm very happy using a C29 preamp as a mate.

There was nothing beyond the items pictured. In the video on the seller's website, the item under the NG looks like a Hafler preamp. I don't remember actually seeing it when I walked in. No records. I overheard the flippers saying the Mark Levinson amp was worth $1500, so they weren't happy...

I got there early and got #7, so I was able to get in when it opened. Only about a dozen folks pre-opening, but I think half of them were there for the audio gear. Mark Levinson 333 amp- $2500. McIntosh MC440M amp- Didn't check price Duntech The Crown Prince speakers (woofers need new foam)...

SoundStageDirect Thanks. Great vendor and great contest!

My Luxman R-1120 has two phono inputs. My Yamaha CR-2040 has only one.

I'm 59. I bought my first TT in 1969. Now I have many...

I agree...great find. I refoamed a yard sale pair using RC's surrounds and they sound very nice.

There is no single "best" strategy to increase your chances of success, but IMHO: 1) Hit the older neighborhoods first. 2) Moving sales are usually better than multi-family sales. 3) Advertised sales with records, stereo, etc. listed will attract much more competition. 4) Advertised sales...

I use a Hotmail account to respond to Craigslist ads. I recently got a response three days after I emailed, because my email had gone into the seller's junk mail folder, and she only occasionally checked that folder. My followup email to her was quickly answered. Sometimes I get no response...

I have a Yamaha MX-2 and a McIntosh 2505. The MX-2 has a damping factor of 250 @ 8 ohms. The 2505 has a damping factor 27 @ 8 ohms. (The 2105 has a damping factor of 13 @ 8 ohms.) I swapped out the MX-2 for the 2505 in my main system. There was a very notible difference in the sound of the bass...

I'm sort of in the middle. I still really enjoy the hunt, but I've gotten to the point where, as others mentioned, I'm unlikely to find anything that will upgrade my current system(s). I now pass on many items I would have jumped on a few years ago. But the possibility of finding something...
