The '680 isn't too bad of a cart for hi-fi, better than the 500's. What kind of condition is it in? Stellar condition other than the cover being cracked. The other one that I sold was a little more roughed up. I just assumed the 680 was a bit hard on the vinyl, but again I originally bought these to spin. In my next house hopefully they will be just used to play/output to digitize music. I still need to be a pre-amp though.

Almost lunch here and da woman is making breakfast. I on the other hand have been searching sewing forums trying to figure out what embroidery machine to buy her for the birthday. It is frigging super annoying, but sort of funny as you can imagine the "techy sewers" that are on the forums. They tend to be more board loyal than the car audio sites as well, sort of like the eD lovers. LOL. PM'ing ninnies FTL! edit *out of habit typed a w by accident* LOL!!

Poor vinyl collection. When I move I am going to turn the main living room into a listening room and have a separate home theatre area.

I still have one. It has a Stanton 680 DJ cartridge on it though, and is hiding in my basement since I don't have a phono stage on the Adcom.

A while back I got two of 'em for $125, missing a couple of feet though. I didn't know if they were any good, but couldn't pass up the deal.

More importantly how would you act if you were the one that had the oversight and crunched something of your friends. I would replace what I broke instantly whether I had the cash or not, it is the respect that we need more this day. It just sucks when others aren't like that.

So glad to be back at my desk, maybe I'll go vehicle shopping

Are you looking for a stock 5 spd or something tougher?

Woot, finally get to board my plane. Hope I get to sit next to the beaut that I have been admiring accross the hallway for the past hour.

Steve, that is effin BS I'd definetely make sure they knew what they did. How moronic can the mechanic be, obviously with an install like that it is your baby. I have no patience for bastages who do that. Sorry for the hassle.

Mine needs a good clean regularly

I don't normally use a stripper to clean my garage, just my pipes.

Are you sure all your mids are still okay?

The LOC's are nice, but crap in = crap out. If your HU is sucky it won't help.

My brain hurts

Lookin' sweet and like a lot of frickin' work. I don't think you are charging that guy enough even though I don't even know what you are charging. Can't wait to see the installed pics.

Thanks Tom for the rec'd, free internet in Phoenix ftw. Especially since my flight is now delayed an extra hour.

j00 guys still up? i am about to turn into a zuccini

Woot, I am drunk.

Yep, if it looks good and sounds like ass how is that a good decision stereo wise. Experimentation is the key, I would never decide how my imaging was going to be based on where my speaks looked cool. If they only fit one place then you have to make due, but with an open slate play around and find a good location first.

Laptops pretty much svck. Way overpriced and underpowered, and I know you know that you could build 4 or 5 desktop machines that were equivalent for the same price.

Ah, watercooling ftw. Of course you would still need a fan, but with 6.5v running to 2 Nexus fans the background noise in my house is higher. With a waterblock you could probably run like 3v to it on the radiator and have no troubles. I put those in my cpu which is my tv/stereo music source but the dang video card and processor fan dominate (both Zalmann quiets too), I finally just put the PC in the other room. My home PC is the loudest thing ever, I just got the point where I said "Screw this" and let all 7 fans roar. Mine's clocked more than 20% over and is pretty quiet, all you hear are the two Zalman's but it still measures under 30dBA total.

Ural, but you probably don't want it. Either that or you have to go offboard (Behringer 2496) or offboard integrated like the H701.

I'd go that route. Even though they dont match....!!! If you don't have a pu&&y it doesn't need to match.
