Make me feel better

Ron, this event sounds like it's basically a rite of passage in your family...If your household were more numerous, you'd have an Insider Gold by now... :-)

Zaikes, well the last two kids, I have 4,

you know I forgot #3 son also launched an ATC 0C9 as well. I got one to tide me over between my Glider and the Van den hull Frog I got after the Glider.
My little girl is the only one not to have broken one.

Now I have my listening room, No more toddlers,
and my Shelter 501, Life is GOOD!

I broke my Denon DL-103 too, so you're not the only one ;-) I broke it while moving my table to a new location and installing a new phono stage, so I never even got to hear the table on the new phono stage. Oh well - at least it wasn't some Keotsu. Cheers,
Outlier.

One begins to get a picture of why there are so many manufacturers vying for a piece of a business pie I had previously assumed to be a bit smaller than I now realize it must be...buy it, break it, buy it, break it...
