A very big thank you and very big thumbs up to Grant (Struth) for his Mission 737R speakers that I took a punt on, and have just set up this evening.

They sound wonderful, and considering that they are 30 years old are in immaculate condition. A credit to Grant and his brother.

I know Grant took an age packing these speakers securely and safely to withstand the rigours of postage via UPS, and my hat's off to you sir for your packaging skills!

[Guitarrero]

Many thanks to Dave "Clothears" for the Beresford Caiman DAC ... great to deal with, promptly despatched & perfectly packed .... a proper gent throughout!

My thanks to Tom (montesquieu) for the prompt payment & swap/exchange against the Ortofon cart I had listed here... :)

Indeed, perfect transaction.

I'm rather enjoying the Ortofon Samba, punches well above its weight, very reminiscent in shape and sound of the old MC20 MkII which was a pricey cartridge in its day, though the Samba has a much healthier output.

[flapland]

Thanks to Tom (montesquieu) for being so helpful with my purchase of his A23 SUT. As ever a gentleman.

Many thanks to Surayne for the sale of a pair of Quad 510 monoblock amplifiers. A real gentleman - great communication with personal delivery and hand-over in the car park of a certain services on the M25; saving me the additional expense of a courier. :)

I'm delighted with my new "summer amps" (all will be revealed in due course).

Thanks again Surayne.

[The Barbarian]

You should be able to refinish those Quad power amps, the actual facia plates look ok it's just the removable top & bottom edge aswell as the grab handles/sinks that are chipped up..

Hi André

Yes, the black grab handles/heatsinks will no problem, but the top and bottom edge are finished in Quad 'bronze', which is more difficult to touch up. You used to be able to get the paint on eBay but it is no longer available. There is a Volvo car paint that is very close match, so I may get my local car service/repair place to do an entire re-spray. Actually the amps are in better cosmetic condition than the photos would lead you believe.

And here's me saying one of my objectives for 2015 was to dispose of excess equipment! I will - in time. :eyebrows:

Thumbs up for Geoff (Geoff101)

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to thank Brian for building me a couple of Klotz MC5000 cables one with MS Star Line Phono plugs at each end and the other with MS Star Line Phonos at one end and Neutrik gold plated 1/4" jacks to interface with my Crown D60 power amp. Both cables have been beautifully made and have given my system a new lease of life with much better resolution and an even response over the whole audio spectrum. Listening to my system now is like hearing it with all the mud n crud stripped away, wonderful!

Brian is a top chap to do business with and kept me fully informed of progress. Nice one Brian!

cheers

Chris

[brian2957]

Last year one of our members , Petar ( drpetar ) bought a set of Klotz interconnects from me . A couple of months later he bought another set which after 2 weeks or so hadn't arrived ( Bulgaria ) . I duly sent him another pair and he was very happy with the cables. Last week Petar contacted me to let me know the first pair had now arrived ( via Malaysia and God knows where else ) Petar informed me that he had sent the other pair back , and they arrived this morning . So thank you Petar for your honesty and for making the effort to send the cables back to me . I've dealt with Petar a few times now and all transactions have been excellent so deal with him in confidence . A true gent , and AOS at it's very best once again :)

[drpetar]

Thanks for the kind words Brian, it was a big pleasure dealing with you. And of course to send you back the second pair of ICs (for which I haven't paid) was absolutely unquestionable for me. Cheers :)

So, thanks to Shane who gets a firm recommendation from me.

Hi All,
A huge thanks and recommendation for Barry!
I bought an ADC cartridge from him and ran into a few teething issues.
Barry went above and beyond in resolving the matter. He phoned me up to discuss the problem, gave me advice and even accepted the cart back for testing. There is nothing wrong with the cart, so an error on my part.

If only everyone was as nice to deal with.
Cheers
Ian

I know mate I saw the sales thread for this a while back :lol: So what do you expect this to do compared to a rubber belt mate ? . Looks like an interesting concept , and worth a try as the price seemed reasonable

[struth]

Probably give my nightmares trying to tie it.. In fact i doubt i will manage it with my hands being pretty non dexterous these days. All right for menial work though:eyebrows:

Should make the sound more silky. Just like silver cables add shimmer and shinyness, and copper adds warmth.

Natch.

[struth]

I give up...its impossible to get the right length. Acht well it will be handy to strengthen the gussets of me longjohns...and other delectibles:lol:

[brian2957]

There must be a technique mate . Keep it until me and Gary come over again , he's good with ' fiddly ' things :)

[struth]

I got it pretty tight at about 5th attempt and i dont see how you could get it much tighter and still get it on tbh. its problem is it doesnt give at all. It spun the sub platter but not the main one as there is insufficient grip. Might work on a lighter tt platter.

[brian2957]

Sounds like a right PITA :rolleyes:

[neo2606]

Big thanks to Zoidburg. Made the effort to send cables out next day. Great service and great communication.

Just want to say thanks to Peter (Symon) for the smoothest purchase of his Dino mk2. Good stuff.

[MarginWalker]

Thanks to Pete (clarkey555) for the great Rega Brio R. We had a few issues with the courier (no-ones fault other than the courier's) but Pete was in constant communication letting me know what was going on. The amp is sounding beautiful and is absolutely mint as described in the ad.

[clarkey555]

Cheers Phil(marginwalker) glad you are enjoying the rega and
Thanks for a no fuss payment
And again apologies for the delay in delivery
It's been a real pleasure
Thanks
Pete.

I got it pretty tight at about 5th attempt and i dont see how you could get it much tighter and still get it on tbh. its problem is it doesnt give at all. It spun the sub platter but not the main one as there is insufficient grip. Might work on a lighter tt platter.

I don't know if this is the right place for a reply, hope it is.
Of course a silk braided thread cannot have the same grip of a flat rubber one, but has enough to make its duties.
Anyway it is difficult for me to understand how it can spin the subplatter but not the main one of a Thorens TD160.
Maybe it is a way to say that the main platter does not rotate at the right speed?

If that is the issue, probably the belt is too tight or too slack.
Don't think it's a matter of main platter weight, as that same silk thread moves correctly my 5 kgs. Kuzma Stabi S platter, plus a heavy 800 grams high density graphite clamp.
Please, check the attached video. :reel:

Sometimes a silk belt could not have the grip to start the platter, but when its lenght is right has enough to keep the right speed when it is moving.
So the start can be given by hand instead of using a switch.
This means start the platter by hand, something able to prolong the life of any belt, switch on the motor and then wait a few seconds for the speed to stabilize.
It seems a minor cost to pay to have the level of improvement in sound performance given by a silk belt.

In the manual I send to every purchaser, it is stated that before trying the silk it is useful to make some practice using sewing or dental thread.
In this way one can also be accustomed to the kind of improvement involved with a belt not made with rubber.
I followed this advice and maybe this is the reason I had not to struggle so much when I passed to the surgical silk.

Anyway, when it is felt that the grip is not enough, a car belts spray can be used or otherwise ravelling a bit the belt with the edge of a metal nailfile to improve its dragging properties.
These can be useful suggestions, but neither has been needed to start the platter and clamp of my Kuzma and get it quickly enough to the right speed as shown in my video.
The motor of the Kuzma TT is not so powerful, it is just the same Premotec used by regular Rega's.

So, maybe I wouldn't say it is a PITA, but just a kind of tweak that needs some more patience and application to obtain the wanted results than the easiest ones, like putting pin points under a CD player. :pub:

P.S.
I would like to say that the transaction with Grant has been a pleasure, and that he regretfully suffered of a delay by post service in the delivering of the shipment.

[clack]

There must be a technique mate . Keep it until me and Gary come over again , he's good with ' fiddly ' things :)

Yes, there is. :)
It is possible to make a belt of the correct lenght just placing the sample one in an open hand, at the tip of the fingers.
Otherwise a more comfortable way is to use a wood board and two nails.
Hammer one nail on the woodboard, place the rubber belt on it and pull it with two fingers until it is tensioned, but not strained at all.
Place the second nail two or three millimeters back than the tensioned belt would say.
In this way a template is made, place and tension the silk on it, then make the knot.
Leaving a needle in the knot make things easier if the lenght is not the right one.:)

Thanks again.

[Barry]

Once again many thanks to Grant (struth) for the Blues LPs he sold me. They are all in perfect condition, complete with outer transparent sleeves to protect the covers; clearly owned by someone who knows how to look after his records.

Heck - if you ever opened up a record shop Grant, I would be bankrupt in a month!

Needless to say I'm delighted. Can't wait to play them, however that will have to wait a couple of weeks when I can get my TT connected back up to my system; at the moment I'm redecorating the living/listening room and because of that, can only listen to CDs.

A big thanks to Brian (brian2957) for fixing me up with the new set of IC's. They arrived Friday and I've given them a couple of hours listen today so far.

I purchased a new cable for my Sennheiser HD600's (Mogami 3106, Cardas plugs and Neutrik jack) from Bill. It's superbly made fitting the headphone's perfectly. I was particularly drawn to these because my main inter-connects and speaker wire are by Mogami and I love them. I've not had much chance to listen to them yet but I'm very pleased with the sound based on the brief listen so far. It was a very easy transaction and the cable arrived as and when expected. I'd definitely recommend his work if anyone needs any other cables. Thanks again Bill!

I have to thank Jeff (rubber duck) for the swift delivery of the Trends T amp

The packaging was first rate

The amp has been a bit of an eye opener and I would be quite happy to use it all the time if I didn't have the Oto

I purchased this amp as I think the Oto may need a bit of a service, it's never been serviced since I have owned it which is about 15-20 years, and I couldn't imagine being without tunes while it was away at AN being fettled

I can highly recommended Jeff to deal with, absolutely first rate

Thanks again Jeff :)

Or are there items for sale in the classifieds that the asking price isn't that far removed from the RRP?

I'm not saying who or what, as I have no intention of thread crapping, more just making an observation, and thinking to myself "good luck getting anywhere near your asking price"

Back in the good old days, an asking price usually started perhaps around half price of what the RRP was, I've seen some that are up almost to 80%, and it's not as if they were only very recently purchased.

I know one dealer that usually gives 1/3 of RRP, to then sell at around 50 to 60% of RRP, and bearing in mind he has to stick a warranty and money back guarantee on it, seems more than fair.

[Haselsh1]

You know Craig, it never ceases to amaze me just how much people think these items are worth. You see this shit all over ebay as well.

[walpurgis]

Or are there items for sale in the classifieds that the asking price isn't that far removed from the RRP?.

Yes. I've noticed it too. Still, people can ask what they like. Whether the item sells is another matter. It's up to the purchaser to do their research if need be.
