    Sony PS-2251 Tonearm Issues

    Hey everybody. I finally got around to getting a new cartridge ( Grado Red 1) put on this table. The tonearm was secured in place with a twisty tie by the tech that installed/aligned the cartridge for the ride home. The table was fully functional before I got home and set it up... To find that...

    I was thinking of going with the Grado Blue for $110. Is this a decent option in that price range?

    new from southern california

    Greetings from another SoCal AK member. I know how you feel. I am 21, and listen to very little of the modern music that my peers enjoy, partly because most of it is mastered in a way that results in complete and utter shit for sound quality.

    Cartridge Advice, Please! (Black Pearl vs Pearl)

    Hi everyone. It's about time I replace my ailing Ortofon 15 Super in my Sony PS-2251, and I would like to pick up a cartridge around $100-$150. The Sumiko Black Pearl and Pearl went to the top of my list because there's a local store that carries Sumiko, and I would like instant gratification...

    It's a nifty turntable. One of my father's friends was nice enough to pass it my way when he heard I was getting into vintage audio equipment. I have the original Ortofon OM15E Super mounted, but it doesn't sound right, so I am planning on picking up a Sumiko Pearl or Black Pearl at a local...

    Thanks, everyone! Yeah, I am really glad I got the stands with them... if I didn't I'd probably get some Herman Miller Eames side tables to use as stands.

    Falcon Acoustics LS3/5A build

    I think I am going to order a pair of these kits. One question: do you have to use veneer, or would it be possible to stain the cabinet as-is? I apologize if that's a dumb question; I have never build speaker enclosures before.

    Simplified System

    Thanks for the encouraging words, everyone! I've been a longtime lurker, but I think I shall start actually posting. This setup has become my refuge/ a little slice of solitude to help me keep my sanity lately. Yessir, I lucked into this pair in great shape from the original owner, with the...
