Evening folks! 
but then i think that it's a nice table with a nicer cart than the rest of my flock so should i pony up for a shibatai THINK VMN40ML was what i settled on but i have honestly been so zonked out of my mind lately, i forget
i've never had one. never heard one.
I did it!!!! Moscode 600 repaired. It was never going to be as easy as cleaning the sockets and adding new thermal paste (though I did those things). When testing votlages I found out the B+ was being dragged down by more than 100v. Turns out it was a zener that was under spec’d to start (wrong value, maybe from the factory) and then just gave up. After that of course one of the others died. This is a notoriously cheap ass board; you can lift a trace by looking at it wrong. Which I did.
For someone like @painttoad thats all in a days work but I’m just learning this stuff so am quite happy right now. Listening to it as I type.

Pretty sure that’s correcti THINK VMN40ML was what i settled on but i have honestly been so zonked out of my mind lately, i forget
I’ve used them on a few cartridges and been fantastic. SHURE, PICKRING, EMPIRE.
don't hand out credits like that. this jvc ax66 has whipped my ass over and over and over. i think its been 4 or 5 times that i thought it was fixed.
its not fixed
I really like them. My dad was a HUGE fan. A year or so ago I went to see a musical based on the brothers' lives and the Kinks early years. The staging incorporated a real rock band playing badass covers of the songs. The music was great. But overall it was thin and sanitized. Still fun though.
That’s a wrap. See you for Jazz Sunday 
Fair enough! Getting your ass kicked is of course part of the process. Does it still thrill you when you get one really and truly done?don't hand out credits like that. this jvc ax66 has whipped my ass over and over and over. i think its been 4 or 5 times that i thought it was fixed.

You weren’t seeking a Third Rate RomanceI’m sure I was listening hanging out at the beach or cruising around somewhere
I’ll bet that JVC pressing of Ritenour will sound awesome!
****ing right it does! it goes right up there with restoring a muscle car and laying a slick paint job on a body i just straightened. or laying down ghost flames on a multi layer kandy job on a harley.( i miss that **** so bad sometimes.)
but yeah. i'l strut around the shop and basement. i'll have it on the dyno and get killer readings and pop up and do happy dances,
someone should sneak cameras in my shop and watch my goofy ass.
i used to get all drunked up and thrash on the bigger job as part of my reward but we don't do that anymore.
Flash in the pan dirty beatniks, I say.

HELLZ YEAH. I may or may not have been doing a little singing... This is really a spectacular amp. I scoped it at 280-ish wpc at clipping. And the bass command is wild. It takes the woofers out back of the woodshed.
You don't do auto/motorcycle painting anymore?
