    Victory At Sea

    You'd never know it was Veterans Day reading all the threads/posts on AK/turntables, looking back the last 23 hours not a mention. I couldn't think of a better record album than Victory At Sea composed by Richard Rodgers on the RCA label to listen to in honor of our heroic Veterans.

    Atlanta CL

    Spotted a TOTL Denon CD player, DCD-3520, seller asking $100, draw doesn't open, looks to me all it needs is a replacement belt and it should be good to go. If you get it check to see if the seller has the remote, manual etc. If I was close to Atlanta it would of been under my roof six days ago.

    The First JBL Monitor Blue?

    I'm being a bit lazy and figure I'd ask when did JBL first introduce the monitors with the JBL blue baffleboard. These should of been the walnut veneer and blue grill cloth models. The monitors also came in industrial gray cabinets with black grill cloth.

Who's in the 1% that purchased a current/new turntable, cartridge...
