SONY XA7ES needs dire help...anyone out there?
Thanks, guys, for the info...I'll look into it.  
Did I do a good thing or not?
Thanks, Dover. Just picked up a nice FR 64-S arm, got me thinking about a phono cables, saw your post....thanks for getting back.

Dover, (and sorry all to go off-topic): ...the Audioplan silver phono cable from the 80s you mentioned once in a thread...is that an SAEC Audioplan cable, says super X-Wire on the sheath?  
VPI Scout 2 vs. Luxman PD 441
Thanks, R, Yeah, I saw the 444 was the two-arm version after I poked around some more. Duh.... But - and here's my audio shallowness showing through again - that 444 sure is cool looking.... R, you know a lot, what do you think of the 441/444 pe... 
VPI Scout 2 vs. Luxman PD 441
Long dead thread, but here it goes...I'm a picker and just picked up a 441 with RF 64s on it, an RF MC 201 cartridge mounted. I have to take a a bit closer look on condition when it gets here, but it looks quite nice...whoever was the original own... 
Western Electric 12AX7 coming this summer.

Waxing nostalgic about those speakers that got away...
FYI: Just bought back the ESP Concert Grands I owned 30 years ago, from the same person who bought them from me...perfect, like they never left. Now just need to find a pair of Cary 805C's....

Hi, soix. Yes, I saw that $1500 pair; I watch all of the used sites. They were trashed, too much effort. I have a Wanted Ad on another site, not sure what will come of it...its looks for a "well-cared for pair." I keep my gear in nice shape and l... 
Wolf Von Langa SON (TAS 2022 PofY) and Gestalt Audio - my experience & review
I had Line Magnetic 755i field coil speakers once . Loved ’em, loved ’em...would have kept them in a 6th stereo room system just to listen to Patsy Cline at 2am. So, field coils are hard to leave behind. I’ve looked at the Gestalt website a few ...
