| Bent Slightly Out of Shape It took a month to get the cartridge installed in the headshell by a local tech known as Turtleman (not counting the 2-3 weeks it took me to decide to do it myself or farm that task out). I haven't even installed it yet because I'm already running... | |
| Bent Slightly Out of Shape Not really, and some people might not notice, and as another member suggested, it may have come from the factory that way. I am going to install the Grado and have the ADC evaluated by my tech. At worst, I'll have it to use as a back-up, assuming ... | |
| Bent Slightly Out of Shape Thanks for the responses....I'll have a tech scope it out and see how that goes. My days of installing cartridges are long-gone, but vinyl is still my first love. | |
| Offer / counter-offer? Audiogon rules I have been on both sides of this fence. I like dealing with experienced Audiogon sellers because their listings are almost always fairly priced. If you want the item and it appears to be a fair asking price, why insult the seller by asking to acc... | |
| Why Crazy Prices paid for Pioneer 100 JBL L100 AR1 AR3 AR3A What must be remembered is that for many of us, we first listened to music on portable or table-top AM radios, later on FM radios. Once you were able to hear music reproduced using a receiver and two speakers of whatever kind, you were hooked. I t... | |

| What do/did you do for a living? Professional buyer of used audio equipment due to congenital condition that got out of control. | |
| Is This A Bad Move? I'll definitely give the OC703 acoustic paneling a shot. | |
| Is This A Bad Move? Thanks for the suggestion, mijostyn….I'm using the bookshelves because I just picked up the Advents a month ago or so and don't want to ditch the ADS L-810s. I won't play them together, just one pair at a time. The units are handmade, not knockdow... | |
| Is This A Bad Move? Thanks for the constructive response millercarbon….the bookcases have a framing/molding that is exactly 26" wide, then the actual shelf area opens up to about 28" wide. Both sets of speakers are a shade under 26" wide, which will leave about an in... | |
| No Sub-Mojo That makes sense...I'll give it a shot. Thanks! | |
| No Sub-Mojo Dweller, I think you were correct in your earlier post about the switch to select normal/separated.....to activate the outputs, the switch has to be set to 'separate', but that's where the caveat from my tech kicks in; it will also disable the amp... | |
| No Sub-Mojo Good question....I am using an M&K MX-125, which has very limited controls, but is a great sub for music. I have somewhere around 12-13 subs, but none feature remote control. | |
| No Sub-Mojo I was wrong in stating there is no switch for normal/separate operation on the amp. When I hooked the sub up, I left the switch in the 'normal' position. |
