My 1000th post (and a BIG thank you)

Wow.

This is my thousandth post to AudioKarma. I only joined around June 20th, 2011. I was on head-fi before, but this is much more fun. I joined because I had (still have) a problem with my Philips 867 headshell. I then got a (to this day) pain in the rear-great sounding-Philips 212. I did some work on it, but the speed is still funny and the platter rubs. I then got a Pro/ject One DR-220. Great turntable. From there, ladies and gentlemen, I lost count. I bought a Dual 1219 from Bohhey. This isn't counting some random junk ones I got. I also have a few receivers, my main one being my beloved Marantz 2275. I went from listening almost ALL digitally to listening almost ALL analog. I now have a Great Sony 2251 that will have an Infinity Black Widow (that I bought on Barter Town for $275, which is a great investment for those who haven't paid the $25) tonearm on it by later tonight (hopefully). I will then re-cap it (or get it recapped) and get a record clamp. Thank all of you who have posted in my threads, and given me advice and comments and compliments. It is greatly appreciated. Starting with my 1,000th post, I will now sign my posts with 'Ben aka MacKat', as that is my name. I will have a Thread about my completed-ish 2251 soon. I hope to learn more and more, and have more and more fun on this website. Thank you to each and every one of you! I hope to see ya' around soon :)

Thanks a lot!

Congrats and also congrats on your 2251 and Black Widow arm. I had one with the same arm until I sold it. Great table, but I'm so spoiled by my automatics that it just didn't get much use. Hindsight is 20/20 and wish that I would have kept it, but that's how it goes.
 
I put the original arm back on the Sony, I'm going to finish the Black Widow tomorrow.

At this pace you will catch pmsummer ....eventually. Feel free to do the math.
edit:
After having a look at the current standings, Sandy G could catch him tomorrow if he gets busy.
