  1. I haven't taken it apart...yet. But yes, I do plan on making it into an mkIII.
  2. Oh wow! Just PM me and I'll pay for the shipping. Don't need a lot, just a few...so... @kve777...your 'pile' has me concerned...😂
  3. Cool! I'm just looking for stuff like dups or whatever. Like a 'starter kit' of old (ish) and perhaps unusual stuff to play. I will give them back if you want them back at some point. Some LP's I'd be willing to purchase, if a good offer is made. Thank you so much!!!! I have a Thorens TD115 mkII I'm working on.
  4. Anyone got some spare LP's? Doesn't really matter what music or artist it is. Just looking for a few to add to my...not so distinguished collection right now.
  5. As Kevin suggested, please start a topic about your experience and we'll go from there. It encourages more participation anyway!
  6. Where DeadMou5 got his inspiration... Windsor/Detroit rave scene.
  7. For those that may not know, @SteveFord is an ORIGINAL Carversite member. So don't mess with him...he is your senior.
  8. Diana Ross - Missing You (2:20 to 2:43 to 3:20 She is a goddess. In the fucking pocket man.)
  9. Exiark [Morgsch] - Let the Sun Rise (Drumstep remix) Lots of bottom end on this one. Can your system handle it?
  10. The music files haven't been uploaded to the server yet...
  11. I used to have it in vinyl...but gave it away years ago. I agree with you... it's an excellent album. Underrated...just like Fair Warning.
  12. Welcome! You sound like you'll fit right in here.
  13. Welcome! Many great people to meet here and of course, they all have an opinion to share.
  14. At least on Amazon, there are remasters of VH II, WaCF, DD, FW and 1984. Also the Best of Both Worlds has remastered tracks.
  15. @Daddyjt Did you happen to listen to the remastered versions? Also, Eddie hated the studio when they first started. He didn't know how to overdub or track his part without the band playing with him. SO I wonder how much of the band's disinterest in doing things 'right' in the studio muddied the outcome. Wasn't till later that he mastered the art of the studio gig.
  16. If everything goes right - the Album will be accessible on the 'Now Playing' application for that week. Previous weeks will still be accessible by going to the 'Archive' folder in the player application. So everyone will be able to listen to the album of the week live, right here on the site.
  17. For most audio signals, this isn't an issue. But a Moving Coil's output is only 0.3mV, with a peak voltage of about 4mV with music dynamics, with a vast array of capacitances and inductances and impedances already inherent in the cartridge. So any cable capacitance will add to the low pass filter that already exists, and with such small voltages, the high gain stage of the phono preamp will amplify everything coming out of the cartridge/cable filter. As I said, this could be investigated technically, but it's complicated, very complicated. I would hate for listeners to be too worried about the cables, but at the same time totally neglect them. Suffice to say, it's important to realize that the sound 'quality' is not the same as the frequency response, in that, a high capacitive cable will cause some kind of intolerable distortion or compression of the dynamic range. There are many things to consider, but I think if we understand that the tweaks we are making for loading is to reach an acceptable frequency response, as opposed to trying to affect the overall quality, we can rest easy. An example of loading: Notice that the major differences exist starting at 8kHz-10kHz, and that some fairly major changes need to occur to make that much of a difference. So cable capacitance shouldn't be too much of a worry if you're using good ones.
