Greg’s get together is tentative. He was trying to do it around my chemotherapy schedule. I’m in home isolation currently. Hopefully that changes soon, then the other factor is the COVID pandemic. im hoping we can have it as planned! Barry

Nelion is your best bet! Greg does excellent work! If you need a local tech, Just-Audio is one of the last ones in the area. https://shopjustaudio.com/pages/repair I hope this helps! I am retired myself due to health issues. I’ll forward your info to Greg Viggiano, he has an open house in January for all of us local carver enthusiasts. He lives in Alexandria VA. He was last talking about MLK weekend! Barry

Welcome Dave, where in Maryland are you located? I’m southwest of the city in the Elkridge area. I’m right near the Howard and Baltimore County lines, very close to Anne Arundel County as well. I’m 5 minutes from BWI. Soundscape is still in business. Another shop called Just Audio also does repairs, other cs members have taken equipment to them for repair. I have several pairs of old Polks, selling the SDA-1Bs. If buying new CD player, I would probably buy a transport to go to my DAC. I have a ladder DAC similar to the Denafrips Aries ii. I have been looking for used Oppo units, prices have gone insane! welcome to the site, I hope you stay a while, kick off your shoes, put on some tunes, grab your favorite beverage and enjoy your stay! Barry

George Harrison estates dropped a new ‘My Sweet Lord’ video! It’s pretty entertaining and a many guest appearances! A fun watch!

Been a fan since I watched them on Ed Sullivan! Grew up to their music! By high school Beatles they were broke up, by that time I had dived head first into a wide variety of music. Barry
