    "Black diamond" nude elliptical for Pickering XLZ7500 (or Stanton 881/Pickering XSV) ?

    mouvimies, I'm glad this thread is still going. The d4000 you linked to is not a black diamond (I wish it was). It says it's a natural diamond in it's description.The BD is synthetic. I would guess the 3000,4000,5000 are all the same. On Mrstylus all the BD's are marked so after the stylus...

    "Black diamond" nude elliptical for Pickering XLZ7500 (or Stanton 881/Pickering XSV) ?

    I also have a XLZ, love it. Now I'm using d3000. I will be sending my d4500 out to get a retip. I don't believe they make a BD for any Stanton or Pickering MM carts. I checked mrstylus and decapo and they don't. If there is one out there I would be interested.

    What does your pet listen to when they think no one is around?

    I have an African Grey Toby .He Loves music. Right now he is listening to some blues on WWOZ. He's standing on a perch almost in front of the speaker whistling, and jamming with the slide guitar. He also loves harmonica, horns and good harmonies. The funnest thing is when I walk in to the house...

    Recently I met a mod

    It's true the mods are real. Contrary to popular beliefs they're living, breathing human beings and quite likable. The weirdest thing is they actually love music and equipment! So if you ever are fortunate enough to meet a mod in the wild say hello and see what happens.

    Pickering XSV/3000 vs. Stanton 881S. Dissimilar Twins.

    Bonzoro I have never heard the 5000, never even seen one. I think you found a hens tooth. Stanton and Pickering are tall carts. If you can't raise the arm maybe you can lower the mat with a thinner one. You can use any Stanton or Pickering MM stylus. Can't use pick XV or stan 680 series, or any...

    JBL Studio 570: Talk me out of them

    Hi Tom I have the 590's in a 22.6 ft x18.6 ft room. They sound great even off axis and in the rest of of the house. A friend has the 580's and a slightly larger room. While they sound very, very good I have not heard them at loud levels and I would suspect they would have a hard time filling the...

    Denon Tonearm - Worst to Best ?

    DK Finding info on these tonearms is next to impossible. I have a DP 75 with a DA 402 arm. All I can say about the 402 is. I have a Technics sl1700 mkII.

    Newman Racing ??

    I met Paul around 1980 at Bridgehampton race track here on long island. He was racing a Bob Sharp Datsun 280ZX in a SCCA national event. He was paddocked as far away as possible from every one. I didn't even know it was his car until I got up to it. He came out of the trailer and was walking...

    Parasound Halo P6 preamp...

    I have a P6 and a A23 love them both. The P 6 is extremely versatile I'm running, 2 TT's , tuner , cd, cassette and a mac by usb. I don't know much about dacs but I'm happy with the way it sounds. If you are using a sub, the controls are some of the best. The volume control is as Joe said is...
