Dusty Chalk Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Took delivery of Pioneer Kuro 6090 in May, which has taken 17mths waiting and will be completed this Friday.17 months? You have above-average patience. Oh, and nice TV.
aardvark baguette Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 I'll say. 17 days is a long time.
Dusty Chalk Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Speaking of long time -- I finally got those LED lights I ordered a couple months back (first shipment got lost, and I didn't say so right away), and people asked for reactions: Meh. They're definitely not bright enough for lightbulb replacement, I'll have to try a brighter wattage (IIRC, they were 3 watts).
lostonetr Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 need to be able to cook. and something to help in the rain, cause it seems like there'll be lots of it.
morphsci Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Brown Toshiba NB205 netbook to replace my increasingly more annoying macbook. Hostname is going to be JH13 Are you going to hackintosh it?
guzziguy Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Another 3 months with a personal trainer.
Dusty Chalk Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Recuperative still? Or are you looking forward to a second career in bodybuilding?
n_maher Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 May have bought a turntable. Transaction status somewhat unclear at this point. I have poor impulse-buy control. I guess that means you don't want to borrow the Thorens?
Hopstretch Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 I guess that means you don't want to borrow the Thorens? Might have bought a Thorens.
Dreadhead Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 ^ you make my KGSS and O2 sad when you survive the impulse to buy them but then buy other stuff.
Sherwood Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Come now, at least it wasn't that cursed JH13 pro.

repiv Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 HeadAmp Pico DAC, HeadAmp GS-1 w/DACT and Sennheiser HD650. My first proper step into audiophilia. Oh and first post, hi guys
Hopstretch Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 (edited) Welcome. That's a pretty good step, too. I just bought this refurbished Thorens 160. Seller threw in a Grado Gold cartridge and Pro-Ject Phonobox II at fairly close to eBay prices plus install and setup for free. Nice guy. Seemed like a decent place to start with vinyl while staying in the hundreds. Now I guess I need some, like, actual platters, man. Edited August 4, 2009 by Hopstretch
manaox2 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 HeadAmp Pico DAC, HeadAmp GS-1 w/DACT and Sennheiser HD650. My first proper step into audiophilia. Oh and first post, hi guys Nice, really. Welcome to headcase! Last thing I bought was Duramax Gold C-Max ceramic brake pads. for the truck.
Pars Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Looks nice. Probably good that you got the Grace arm vs. one of the Thorens TP-16 Mk. x (II probably for that vintage).
swt61 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 Stretch, I had that same setup about 18 months ago, including the Grado Gold, but with a Hagerman Bugle phono stage. I think you'll be very happy, and that unit looks to be in great shape. That was in my TT experiment sessions. I liked the Yamaha PF-800 a bit better, but just marginally.
