Just wanted to take a moment to recognize a great seller here on AudioKarma. I purchased a rebuilt Advent 300 from Pat this week and it met all my expectations and then some. Pat's expertise and attention to detail worked wonders with this little classic receiver. He did an outstanding job of...

Here’s one for you MAC specialists. I recently have had a problem with retaining the memory presets for the FM tuner on my MAC 4200. The Owner’s Manual refers to The Electronic Memory Battery Power Supply where “A very long life, rechargeable battery power supply provides the energy for the...

I have recently acquired an Ortofon 2M Black and have it currently installed on my VPI Scoutmaster TT. I want to move to a MC Cartridge on the VPI soon but I wanted to ask you experts if you feel that the Ortofon 2M Black would be a good fit for my Denon DP-62L. The Denon only has the straight...

I was given the best of service when buying a VPI Scoutmaster from Rob. Great price, excellent communications and a very much appreciated accommodation when picking up the table. I highly recommend Rob and wouldn't hesitate to buy from him again.

I was recently at a garage sale when I asked if they had any vintage stereo equipment for sale and was told they had a system in the basement I could check out. Unfortunately the equipment was in pretty bad shape. I did however see this guy sitting in the corner and asked the homeowner if they...

I would be remiss if I didn't thank Paul for a great turntable and easy transaction. The Technics SL-1200 MK2 has been a source of satisfying musical pleasure...currently my go to turntable for listening sessions. I highly recommend Paul for both quality of product and high professionalism.

I recently acquired a beautiful Technics SL1200MK2 sans cartridge and looking for recommendations. I am seriously looking at the Ortofon 2M Blue MM as my choice to but I would appreciate any and all recommendations based on experience. I listen to Classic Rock and Jazz and would prefer a...

Hi all, I have a Denon DP-62L that I purchased from the original owner (my brother :)) with the original cartridge and stylus. I know for a fact that he did not put a ton of hours on the table and it is in beautiful physical and performing condition. I would however like to replace the stylus...

Just purchased some Alpha Dog Headphones from iamjaymo and couldn't be happier with the phones, the deal and the communication throughout the process. I highly recommend Jason if you are fortunate to buy or sell from him.

Just had the opportunity to pick up a pair of Bozak E 300 (or that is what is on the back) but not sure what version or if there has been any mods done. The cabinets are a bit rough but should clean up with a respectable sanding and staining. Any thoughts on what I have here? Thanks BTW, they...

I recently acquired three Denon amps ( and some other assorted equipment) from a relative who was no longer interested in vintage equipment…one POA-2800 and two POA-6600s. He had stored them away about 10 years ago in his basement and there they sat on a shelf until I rescued them. I now have...

Finally put together a decent system for my home office. Technics SE-A5 Amp, ADCOM GFP-555 II, GFT-555II, ACE 515 AC Enhancer, BSR EQ 3000, a Denon DP-47F Turntable and Vandersteen Model 1's

I have the opportunity to buy an Technics SE-A5 amp in mint condition for $275. All lights work and there isn't a mark on it. Seems reasonable (and is non negotiable). I am really in love with the big meters. Any thoughts?

I have recently acquired a Pioneer PL-55X turntable that is giving me a bit of a fit. It appears to be playing well when a record is first started but towards the end of the record there is an audible noise that occurs once every revolution that sounds like something is rubbing. It is especially...

I can get to every forum except Bartertown...seems to have magically disappeared.:dunno: Is this because of a glitch in the new format or am I just going crazy? I'm paid up through December as a subscriber...can anyone help?

Smooth, easy transaction...thanks Mike. Highly recommend!

I had earlier posted the thread below in the McIntosh Audio forum and the responses would require me to ship my Mac 1500. Can anyone recommend a repair/restoration guru in Ohio that I can trust to take care of my favorite receiver? Thanks... “Hi all. I was fortunate to pick up a beautiful Mac...

Hi all. I was fortunate to pick up a beautiful Mac 1500 over the weekend. :banana: Pretty much looks all original including tubes. Before I begin enjoying my purchase I would like to have it checked over by a qualified technician. I live in Central Ohio but travel throughout the state. Who do...

Hi all. I have a Kyocera PL-701 that was operating and sounding great until a day ago the tonearm moved over to start an album and did not lower on to the vinyl...it just sat there. :tears: The start/reject button no longer moves the arm. Table turns and when I manually move the arm to rest the...

I have a beautiful CT-F950 that I had gone over by a professional about 6 months ago...new belts, sprayed, adjusted, etc. It has worked beautifully until about a week ago, and now it will drop out of the play mode after a couple of minutes of playing.:tears: I've tried a variety of tapes and all...

Trying to deterimine the value of three pieces of Luxman equipment, an M-117 Stereo Power Amp, an LV-117 Stereo Integrated Amp and a T-117 Stereo Tuner. I acquired these three pieces from the original owner, are in near mint condition and sound great. I'm guessing they are all original with no...

One of my best garage sale finds, a pair of JSE Infinite Slope speakers (pics in profile) are giving me a bit of a problem :sigh:...well, one of them is. The speaker sounds very good at room and louder volumes but when I have it down low it begins to break up and become a bit fuzzy. The speakers...

On my regular Saturday morning swing through the garage sales I was about to head home when I saw a garage sale sign ahead of me. This was not listed on Craigslist or the local newspapers and I was a bit surprised that I missed it when I headed out. Regardless, I stopped by thinking everything I...

Hi all. Recently acquired a Denon DP-37F turntable with an Audio Technica AT231LP cartridge. After some micro scoping viewing the stylus needs replaced. I'm not sure if it is an ATN-216EP; all I know it is it has been a bit confusing searching for the right answer. I'm aware the ATN-216EP is...
