FYI, I was able to see the LA Philharmonic, conducted by Zubin Mehta, perform the 1812 Overture at the Hollywood Bowl.  The concert was titled as "The Tchaikovsky Spectacular".  That was a long time ago, about 1980, but I remember it to this day.  The canons did produce a good wallup.  The fireworks were set off from behind the Bowl.  Really a spectacular show and wonderful experience.

Zubin Mehta, cannons, and fireworks.

sounds like a lethally dangerous combination 😁😱

Hey Brian, 

I sent a PM. 

I was reading through my manual'. MC loading is resistive. MM  options are said to be capacitive. I think this is the standard. The loading "dock" area in back allows for two inputs with a r/l channel for each input. You can do 2 MC carts, two MM carts or one of each. The front panel button switches between input one and two .

 I happy to hear the music brings back enjoyable memories to you also. 

In Chicago the fireworks were over the lake a great black background , I enjoyed them from the late 60's thru the late 80's .

You forgot sitting on a blanket holding your viewing spot for hours while drinking with friends. That's why I took the L train or rode my bicycle .
