Not too many years ago I picked up a few Technics turntables in the $50 to $100 range and matched them up with '70's pawnshop Pioneer, Sansui or Marantz receivers, throw in a pair of refoamed JBL L-series speakers and for around $300 put together some great budget vinyl rigs. I gave these...

Hey Dave, Long time. I was going to post this, but you beat me to it. Hey, Hey, My, My... Vinyl records will never die...: Ray

Hey Guys, I was there with Audible Images in Jacksonville. AXPONA 2012. That's my Upton Acoustic Upright Bass in the background and my Tascam BR-20 Reel to Reel tape deck that was rebuilt by Greg Baron of United Home Audio. I was playing Tape Project tapes through that insanely killer sounding...

Chicken wire? :)

Steve Jobs preferred to listen to his music on vinyl records. :D

Craig, I have a beautiful pair of Maple Vistas here in Cocoa Beach. All boxes and paperwork. Perfect shape. I upgraded to Spires and these are too nice for my office. I'll take whatever the panel here thinks is a fair-good price. I could deliver for a little extra. Ray

Hi Rich, Thanks for the heads-up and another fine issue of vinylphilemag. I like the turntable that Michel from Montreal is using. :) I'd really like to try out a SME 5 arm on my model 10. Although, the model 10 arm has a detachable headshell and I'm getting an extra headshell to mount a mono...

One of the protester signs read "I'll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one".

Ha, ha... yeah Todd, blame it on the kids. You know you want to go. :) I'm rockin' vinyl today. So far; Nils Lofgrin "Cry Tough" Jeff Beck "Blow By Blow" Rolling Stones "Let It Bleed" Going over some of my usual suspects with the SME 10/Manley Steelhead combo.

f1, Yeah, he was using an all Krell Evolution (II-?) system. If you look at the photo on the web site of the AV room, it shows the rack of gear along the front wall. That's the room he had the CLX's set up in. For rears he was using Summit X's. Of course we listened to Pink Floyd, Dark side of...

Hi from Cocoa Beach. I don't know about Sound Advice, but I just met a M.L. dealer over here on the beach and he gave me a demo of the CLX. Wow! Check out www.audibleimagesav.com. Satch

Hey Tim, Good to have you back. Sorry for your loss... My Sunday Morning Music started at midnight and went on past 3:00 am. I just added a Manley Steelhead phono preamp to run the SME 10 turntable. A new Flux Capacitor for the Delorian. :) *Kenny Burrell "Freedom" Blue Note 45 rpm reissue...

Yeah, me too. I saw and listened to the video on my second system with M.L. Vistas. Looks like a few others watched that vid. Great job on that Todd. Did you mention who was playing that guitar? How about another vid with upright bass... :) Ray

Justin, Thanks for posting those photos. Very well done and emotional images. Ray

Yeah, I would prefer to have him stuffed like Trigger. I bet the Birthers and the Donald will come up with some conspiracy theory. I'm sure Orly Tates will come up with some documents that she will soon reveal on FOX news. :) My first reaction was to jump out of my chair yelling YES!!! I...
