Sweet set up! I am impressed with how much "stuff" there is, yet no clutter! Somehow I can put one thing into an empty room and it will look cluttered. Of course the calculator collection is amazing! My heart was most touched by the 2 statues and the orange lamp.

Thanks tdat! The sculpture in there is my late father's work along with the painting. All are from the period that I'm trying to create. And I could not pass up on that a-m-a-z-i-n-g atomic/Eames/space age lamp:thmbsp:

Thanky Fran! I will have to wait for my Six's to really show their worth (though they are not too bad right now).

The pair I'm fortunate to have are very early ones (1957, IIRC) with the Milspec caps, so they still sound like they're new. Thank God, what a bitch it is to get into these cabinets. :sigh:

I remember finding a post somewhere showing a pretty detailed way of getting inside and rebuilding the xovers. I'll look around and see if I can find it.

Good Luck! :thmbsp:

Thanks Fran. I found that link (it is posted earlier in this thread)... lots of useful info.

NERD!!! (My wife when I showed her the pics) I on the other hand love the display.

Very nice stuff! Your lucky your pl530 works! I still have an auto-return issue that I have to get worked out (when the tonearm returns, it doesn't lift, thus dragging the tonearm across the surface of the record and scratching it).

Well, I've been called worse I suppose (being a father of teen sons and a HS physics teacher and all...) Thanks for the comments brminpin (sorry... only know your handle).

Yikes! I guess my problem is somewhere in the middle of the field and I hope that it is just an adjustment. Thanks for the good words, jhinkel!

Cheers!

I have a soft place in my heart for old calculators so I appreciate your collection. I have had many over the years but alas I decided that I just can't keep everything and they usually get traded or sold.

I just sold a nice Dictaphone.

Thanks Mr. Jones (you make me feel as though I'm your 6th grade student ).
I am spending daily time in there- it's new, I think it's cool, and I loves me music.

Have a better one...

Hi Steve,
I have a Dictaphone 1608 with a broken tube in its display :tears::tears::tears: ! But alas, it is a neon tube display and not the rarer nixie.

Thanks for the comments!
Stay Well,
Tyler
