    Im getting one.
  5. Starting a Meerkat colony in your backyard will solve your spider, snake, and scorpion problems. They may not be legal, and will almost certainly dig many holes all over the place. Its a small price to pay.
  6. Craigslist FTW. Vinylengine It weighs 37 pounds. Thats not so bad except that its mounted at shoulder level The arm seems like it will be a good match for a Grado or other medium-high compliance cart which is perfect since there is a DL-s1 in route and I have a bunch of Grados.
  7. I agree this is silly.
  8. You just quoted and agreed with yourself.
  9. The Primary of my SUT is floating/balanced for noise rejection My tonearm cable is also only about 12" long. When I had the VPI Scout and a similar setup I ran the whole thing without a ground anywhere on the TT for a couple weeks because I forgot. Thanks I also have SME envy. They are really neat arms.
  10. I also got a new arm. Clearaudio RB250 with Michales technoweight. Wired with some absurdly pure silver wire milled cartridge clips For some time I have wanted a tonearm with a DIN connector, and opportunity knocked too loud as the arm came to me with broken wires from the base out. Cardas DIN for rega, 1877 din, unshielded cable to SUT. The paint is metallic blue. Its quite nice looking.
  11. Happy Birthday Birgir!
  12. Happy Birthday Mike!
  13. Happy Birthday!
  14. My headphones have feelings, and you just hurt all of them. Do you have any idea how long its going to take to console them? I can see my HD800 and R10 crying on each others shoulders in the corner now. Its terrible. Grados are manly headphones so they dont cry, but I can see them holding it back. The Stax collection is donning its samurai garb to defend the honor of their family.
  15. Happy Birthday!

  19. Does anyone else feel empathy (sympathy?) for Patrick? I certainly do. Have you watched his pool videos? Going from someone who can shoot pool like that to someone like he is now is a pathetic waste of talent. I hope for his sake that he pulls through whatever he is up against now and can can shoot pool again. His videos portray him as being freakishly good at it.
  20. I ordered some parts from parts conexion. The power went out EXACTLY 10 seconds before I was about to transmit, for exactly long enough for my computer to shut off. Its like the fuckers at the power company planned it that way.
  21. Happy Birthday David!
  22. I also like the style of writing. Too much stuff is too uptight and rigid. icky. A very simple SS amp? Try it! I am curious about why he didnt specify the gain. His description makes it sound like he is trying NOT to say that the SS amp is a buffer. Im totally OK with that, and think its an awesome niche for an amp but he should say it if thats what it is. I have no idea whats going on in the tube amp, but it could also be totally cool.
  23. My usual method is to try it and see what happens I have done what you describe (2 things chained off of RCA, 1 on XLR) to get a bunch of amps to run on my Esound E5at meets.
