  1. I could not agree more - stunning. And great pictures too! What camera are you using? Good luck with your sale.
  2. Happy Birthday Jack C - I'll give The Goonch another spin today!
  3. Brutal! An IP address would be nice to have just to see who did it. It would be satisfying to get a public apology but not worth going to jail for.
  4. Oh sh*t...I got another man-crush...completely awesome, ZMB.
  5. Sorry for the hijack but I played the heck out of a couple of Toronto's albums during my teens - I still have them and I'll play them tonight!
  6. Cool! So is the best place to order from is Schiffer Books?
  7. Congrats! Once you clean it up and dial it in, you'll forget they way you found it. Enjoy the heck out of it
  8. I was a buckerman for several years in my youth. Chainsaw cuts are bad, bad news. Best of luck in your recovery, Bill.
  9. Wow, JohnnyB - you're freaking awesome! The Klipschorns are in storage as there is not enough room in our current house. We plan to build in the next year and will be sure to have enough space for them then. I will take your advice and look into doing both - refreshing the Luxman/Nuance and getting a new setup but will need some time to save. Without airing all my details, I'll be in touch. I really appreciate your advice
  10. Thanks JohnnyB! The speakers are the Klipschorns. The Luxman model #'s: - receiver: digital R117 - turntable: P100 - cd player: DC 114 - cassette: HX Pro I had a choice between a tube amp and the solid state receiver at the time...not knowing the difference, I chose the newer model with more bells and whistles. I went back to the store this last November and asked the owner (same guy that sold it all to me) if by the off chance he knew where that old tube amp was - he just shrugged his shoulders, which was expected. It was worth a try! I just like listening to vinyl, CD's & cassettes. I do not have any music in any other format and do not see changing this anytime soon. Budget: within reason, whatever that is. I have two young children so I am not leaning towards going out and spending big $$$ on something sensitive they may bugger up. The oldest is turning six tomorrow and has just started flipping through my albums so little hands will start using the stereo fairly soon.
  11. Hi JohnnyB, Thanls for your post - very interesting...love it. I have a Luxman system I bought in the late 80's with Nuance speakers...supposedly mid to higher end back then (amp/turntable/6+1 CD/2x casette). Worth keeping? The amp was their highest digital offering at the time but all needs work/repair i.e. blown this/scratchie that/eats discs etc. Also have some large Klipsch speakers (as big as a fridge, if not bigger) that were purchased right around when Heart's Never came around, if I remember right. Still in great shape! What should a guy do?
