    magic jack?

    give me a few more days. you are lucky (at least right now) since they have 805 (moorpark) numbers available. i had to select a different area code because they ran out of 310. hopefully, they will get some more because the front gate phone only makes local calls.

    magic jack?

    got it. easy as pie to hook up. called my cell voicemail to check my messages and it worked flawlessly. made a call and sound quality was remarkably good and clear, though, i didn't directly ask the other person their opinion. granted i've only used it 3 minutes, but thus far i am thoroughly impressed.
  3. a great source such as the $16K 808.2 makes such a substantial difference and really unlevels the field.
  4. thanks for the updates, please keep them coming... sounds like an awesome event and everyone is having a great time.
  5. my friend owns both r10 versions plus just got the sds-xlr. so helpfully within the next few weeks i'll get the opportunity to give them both a listen and that sp amp also with my l3000s. can't wait.
  6. sony made at least two r10 variations. the first is bass shy and supposedly is overall better. then they released a bass version. driving them right makes a huge different too. i loved the r10s the first time i heard them, but my love waned after hearing the l3000s.
  7. thank you, now i can die a happy death.

  10. 2 tix to see iron man tonight
  11. cool, another ps-x800 owner! i can't tell you how hard i've been looking for the owner's manual. no worries about mentioning other sites or even whatever around here, just feel free to speak your mind we have zero moderation with that type of stuff. i found the service manual on the vinyl engine, but have yet to find the owner's. well, i almost bought one off a guy on eBay--but backed out. yeah the nitty gritty 1.0 is a great bang for your buck unit. i got a steam cleaner. it's working pretty well and can't complaint considering i only paid $30 for it--better than nothing. i've thought about upgrading not only the interconnects, but the power cord too. right now my main priority is finding a decent phono stage that i am happy with preferably under $400 (so going used). those pesky cables will have to wait just a bit before I get cracking on it. so relieved that i got the cart squared away and now dialed in right and proper and the table is sounding really fantastic--completely balanced, articulate, and excellent PRAT. the denon dl-110 is really impressive especially considering it's a steal at $140 shipped. it's a moving coil, but it has a high output at 2.2mv or something around there.

    magic jack?

    anyone using a magic jack for their home telephone service? impressions/opinions? i am probably going to order one to try it risk free for their 30 day trial offer.
  15. this last weekend, i bought kill 'em all at amoeba for $14 (not the 45). besides the recording being a bit low requiring I crank the volume noticeably more than usually and this particular lp having more noise than normal, which might go away with a cleaning or possibly I need to do an exchange, it sounds pretty nice and worth the $14 to me. Though, I have no clue what the original pressing or other copies might sound like, but will soon spin my redbook copy on the Reimyo.
  16. This is intriguing, telling, and utterly consistent with how they have handled themselves throughout this whole debacle. If I gave it a theme it would be, they know not what they do. It's clear to me now that they do not think before they act, speak or write--they're impulsive and in a perpetual self-serving bias mode. Vaporizing all mention of the R10s from their website evinces a seemingly desperate attempt to make it appear as if they never worked on R10s and this pitiful situation never happened. This looks so freaking shady and it's not as if no one has those pages off JL's website saved. This is one class-act of a company and reaffirms my position that they should be avoided at all cost.
  17. still missing their R10 reply--anyone
  18. anyone save JL's R10 page? they have deleted! it is as if they never worked on R10s because the tab is even gone from their homepage. these people are fucking shady.
  19. that huge red cap and you getting your hands on more reminds me of something a bit like this...
  20. Even if JL is in the right here, which I find highly unlikely, they have not only done themselves a grave disservice in their defense, but have demonstrated themselves to be a company I can not in good conscience ever do business with either directly or indirectly. As far as I am concerned whether it be here or elsewhere, I will suggest to anyone that might consider their products and/or service to avoid them at all costs--and urge others at minimum to inform the unwitting about this fiasco. JL can point their fingers and keep that measly thousand dollars, may it serve them well.

  24. after seeing a flick at arclight cinemas in hollywood, went across the street to amoeba music and bought metallica kill 'em all & guns n' roses appetite for destruction both on vinyl.
  25. any experience with www.jenalabs.com? a good thread starter question on steve hoffman, audiogon, audio karma, etc... then another can drop the shoddy r10 bomb...
