This is a meme that shouldn't have made a comeback:

Careful it is a very small step from there to buying storage lockers.
Enjoy and report back with color glossy pictures. We like pictures.

Isn't the Andante basically the same thing as the Sumiko Pearl, a/k/a another Excel ES-70 based design?
The Andante E was sold by Sumiko, but mechanically it was a recased Grace F9. Really a lovely cartridge. I had one for a little while, and only sold it because it wasn't *that* much better than the Shure V15-IV and Stanton 881S.

I have never misspelled score on purpose for any reason except to wonder why folks here think it's cute. Kinda like posting the manufacturer names for the Loki, Mani and other items. A name chosen to allow grown men to say naughty words as they read and for those that put that name in posts to think they are getting away with something. A great way to keep that name in the minds of their potential customers. It just works.
Instead of some misspelled word I have some very well bought gear or even free gear. But I generally don't post prices of the gear I grab. I'll just say that I'm at least half AK in my pursuit of gear, Cheap. Not too worried about vintage as I'm waiting for things like Magico speakers to reach the few hundred a pair price point.

'Cause it's FUN! I am sorry, but I try to have some fun on this site.
The first 10 times it's amusing, after that not so much.

Be careful there, @trinhsman is from Gerogia and although I'm not sure where, there is a place with nearly that name, a place half way between Screven and Odum both about an hour inland from Brunswick. Fortunately, there is no development between the two that might get that name.

You ever heard of Climax, Georgia? No, I don't live there. I've heard that people that do are always wanting to go to sleep.

I’ve threatened to move to Bald Knob PA just for the postmark.

I believe Intercourse, Pa is closer to where I like than Bald Knob.
