What A Drag It Is Getting Old
The other day, I was listening to some CDs and then decided to put on a record. I turned the selector knob on my Audio Note OTO to “phono”, which is to the left of “cd” and no sound. I thought maybe it was a dirty contact, so I turned the selector back to cd and then to “aux” in hopes of cleaning the switch. Lo and behold- the record played on “aux”! Impossible. An aux input doesn’t have enough gain for a phono cartridge, but there it was. I called my dealer and he said to bring it in on Monday. OK. Later that day I decided to try again and I realized something. The selector on the OTO is on the bottom of the knob, so turning the knob to the left towards “phono” is actually moving the indicator on the bottom to the right towards “aux”. Turning the knob to the right towards “aux” moves the selector on the bottom to the left to “phono”. I’ve owned this amp for 2 years and I just forgot. As I said- WHAT A DRAG IT IS GETTING OLD.

I have never EVER had such a great time on an Audiogon forum. I have never laughed so much, nor been so impressed with such good hearted wisdom about aging and continuing on in our lives with our beloved hobby. At a mere 67 years old, I feel so lucky to be in this community. Thanks all. Now, time for my nap. |
@chayro Forensically breaking down your missive, you show strong cognitively. No split infinitives, sound punctuation, clear organized communicative structure. You are good to go. When in doubt, visit your local Walmart. Upon exit you’ll feel much better about yourself. Cheers |
