funny you ask because i have plans in the works to hear one within the next few weeks.

cool, that's always welcome news. where did you buy the xyz bloom?

on Wednesday i received the monolithic ps-1 and hc-1b (phonostage) for my turntable rig. an audiogon great deal.

and what about the scarecrow?

so you just quoted Contrastique then shouted out stalker as if that isn't specific enough.

how do you know, Terry isn't the stalker?

you can talk about it here and nearly anything else.

no cropping! it looks way cool and balanced perfectly between the frame and drapes and nicely offset by the red wall--even propping them up on the case is visually impressive. yeah, i am not 100% certain whether electrostats burn-in, though, if the drivers move i suppose they do.

congrats, Al. wonderful pics. i like this one. please share your impressions after you've had time with them. always curious to know, if meet impressions are as good as originally thought.

thanks. as that's one of the main concerns my wife has with the iphone and likely will be one of mine in the upcoming months.

is the 3g going to be able to work on the business (don't know the proper way to say it) email network like blackberry?

that's what i've been waiting for, though, i like being uncommitted(no contract) and will have to pay more monthly for less talk time and likely lower quality too.

wow, you got it all. did you also get those two arm weights? i didn't get anything, but the tt. i've wish i would have also received the weights. very cool and glad to hear. i am feeling this tt a great deal. even though, it has been awhile i'd be surprised if my vpi was substantially better. and in fact, i remember the vpi being a bit dull and not as involving in comparison. can't wait. i am digging my DL-110-very happy with it. thanks for the manual! John looks very nice. Congrats!

i am sure their 20% discount that expires on Monday doesn't make resistance any easier either.

sacrilege! Abbey Road should never be left lying on the floor!

never! well maybe....

custom plates are corny and pretentious.

i vote no unless the buyer is willing to send US currency in the form of a money order, cashier's check or something similar. why... Paypal only provides seller protection when a seller ships to a (verified) confirmed shipping address. Currently Paypal only confirms addresses in the USA, Canada, and the UK. Shipping to unconfirmed addresses poses greater risk such as not only losing the item, but Paypal obligating you to refund the money as well. Because of this I only ship to confirmed addresses. Paypal also has shipping requirement, which are usually cost prohibitive shipping overseas. Any item needs to have a tracking number viewable online, without one the buyer can claim they never got it and are entitled to a full refund. Certified mail or sign receipt requested or anything similar is not adequate proof, if not viewable online and as such Paypal will side with the buyer. Online tracking for overseas shipments is very expensive even with the least expensive carrier to ship overseas, USPS. And if the item is over $250 not only do you need tracking, but a signature upon delivery that must also be viewable online. Such a service is limited to Express International Mail and is very costly. Plus USPS International insurance isn't cheap either. I rarely sell overseas and never accept Paypal for local pick-up.

thanks! let me know... the magic box is a proto phonostage from eddie current. it blew away the cambridge 640p. we've got a little ps-x800 owners' club. yes, i'll send you my email address--thank you. please let us know, your impressions of the denons carts. i considered the 103, but thought it mated better with heavier arms. great photo! looks to be in fantastic condition. do you have any sony r2rs, walkmans, or discman?

you just did

a long night of packing... bong loads

saw it on page 10 of the sm i believe. though, i wonder what other tidbits of information the owners manual holds. vacuums are great, but that's down the road. a friend loaned me another phono stage, a substantially better one, in fact, the best one i've heard in my system and my little vinyl rig has no right to sound as good as it does--so much detail and information it's utterly mind boggling. the 1k load is what i've read as well.
