Stated as

I am reminded of a guy that I used to work for who had previously been the Director of Sales at Magnovox (Div of Phillips). He once told me that, when CD players were first being mass-marketed, he hooked up a Magnovox CD player to a Sears receiver & speakers and it blew away any high-end system he had ever heard. Perhaps I should let him know of this one- he and Cornfedboy (and maybe Albert) can fight over it!

As for me, I'm too strapped right now to get into this kind of exotic gear. Remember, after spending $200+, one STILL needs a dime to tape on to the headshell. Do the expenses never stop?

Jimbo.

With that particular model turntable, a dime won't work, you must use a quarter.

No.......... the expense never stops, once you step into this level of high end audio.

By the way, does anyone have any tricks for removing the Scotch tape residue from the head shell during those times of monetary crisis?

albert: the stuff to use is called "goof-off." i've used it on 3 headshells so far this weekend. realized 60¢. hey, it's a start. -kelly

Thanks Kelly.

I will borrow some "Goof Off" to remove the evidence. I hate it when it's obvious to my guests that the turntable has been compromised for the sake of cold cash.
