    Massive collection of gear

    Came across this while looking for Garrard 301 pictures. This guy has a lot of high quality toys, and he takes really good pictures. http://www.flickriver.com/photos/hannes_frick/sets/72157624456411912/

    http://www.emissionlabs.com/html/club/10years.htm http://www.emissionlabs.com/html/club/45-Globe.htm The 45 limited edition globe now shows sold out. I guess that's the end of that. I doubt these will ever be made again because they are difficult to produce and because shipping is risky...

    EML Forum

    Here is a brand new Emission Labs forum at Jacmusic. Also looks like Lundahl, Yamomoto, VAIC, and others. Could be some interesting topics there once it gets going. http://jacmusic.com/Forums/DIY/index.php

    Massive audio collection up for sale

    Look at this craigslist sale. Rack after rack and shelf after shelf of vintage gear. There is a link to his photobucket album with all the pics. Not one pic of his RCA LC-9A speakers though. I'd really like to see a few pics of that. I may never see another pair for sale in my lifetime...

    Altec 19 Foam

    I've been trying to contact Paul and Debbie Darst for the last month at ddarst2@carolina.rr.com to purchase some replacement horn foam. I can't get a reply from them. Does anyone have an alternative method of contacting them or know if they are still in business?

    The TV listings, schedule, and grid are now up. You may have to enter your zip code or area, but once done you can select day of competition and see what is on each channel. It makes it real easy to plan ahead. I think it's their best grid yet. :thmbsp...

    Yamaha CR-1040 problems

    I just received a newly rebuilt 1040 a couple weeks ago and today it crapped out on me. It stays powered up but the sound just dropped out. All the fuses seem to be fine and then I noticed the overload lamp next to the power lamp is lit. I guess something went wrong and the amp went into...

    There is the C. Crane Twin Coil Ferrite Antenna for about $100, a little less used. Then there is the McKay Dymek DA 9 for $300.00, maybe $150.00 - $200.00 used if you can find one for sale. The reviewer at FMTunerinfo liked the Twin Coil better than the McKay...

    Do you wear pink underwear?

    Well, apparently I do. I was cleaning out my garage and took some of those cheap bright red shop rags and threw them in the washer and then completely forgot about them. Last night I did a load of wash and now all my socks and shorts are pink. I'm going to add this to that long list of...

    Lawnmower Man Poll

    Here is a silly poll to get your thoughts on my neighbor that has a penchant for irritating me day and night. This scenario is about a minor infraction. You wouldn't believe the crap this guy pulls, and I would have bloody fingertips if I would recount them all. You work five days a week...

    Pioneer Elite CT-93

    There was an Ebay auction for one of these cassette decks with a BIN of $2180 US. The auction got pulled for some reason and doesn't show up in the completed listings. From what limited information I can dig up this seems to be one of the few decks that is a Dragon Slayer. What is this deck...
