    New ultrasonic vinyl cleaner in the works: Humminguru

    At this point, the horrendous noise from my Pro-Ject VC-S2 fan motor might be considered ultrasonic. Well no, not really, but it made me laugh thinking about it.

    Equipment Recommendations - The Home For New System and Upgrade Advice

    Absolutely! Nothing reinforces the feeling of ownership more than physical media. There something "pure" about it. Things in the cloud still seem ephemeral to me too.

    Vinyl Storage Recommendation

    These will probably destroy your aesthetics, but you might find something like this useful - Amazon - Shelf dividers. I saw several different types, (material, color and sizes), offered with a quick search. Good luck!

    MoFi UltraDeck / StudioDeck Owners and those interested

    You might be bumping up against holiday hours at MoFi, but I'd go ahead and give them a call. I tried the email routine a while back to resolve an issue, (wanted to replace a scuffed headshell). After a couple of days, I got an email from someone that seemed to not completely understand what I...

    The Dark Side; Digital audio equipment recommendations and setup.

    Your local Comcast/Xfinity provider should have a recommended/compatibility list available on their website that you could check before purchase. That being said, I've had no issues with the Arris Surfboard modems. I've gone through 3 different models over the last decade and they've all been solid.

    You do know that storming off and saying "DO WHATEVER THE F*** YOU WANT!!!" doesn't necessarily mean approval, right?

    Record Sleeve Recommendation Thread

    I'm happy to report that the new VSS - 12.75" dual pocket outer sleeve fits my MoFi gatefolds like a glove. They're tight, but they don't crush the fold; they're absolutely perfect. Weird being excited about a plastic bag, but I've been waiting on this size for a very long time.

    Gotta warp, these members can help. [Vinyl Flat]

    Finally had a chance to fire up my Vinyl Flat that I bought about 6 months ago. I was kinda skeered being my first time and all. Original pressing of Katy Lied off Discogs arrived with a 3/16" rise on about a third of the outer edge. Not a terrible warp by any means, but I can't stand seeing my...

    Phono Cartridges - Your favorites and least favorites?

    With the ML being threaded, I seriously considered foregoing the SL + food for a month just to avoid the migraine-inducing struggle with those stupid little nuts. It sucks getting old.

    Grado Cartridges and Stylus - Questions and Advice.

    TBH the only reason I've delayed my Opus 3 install is that the Hana SL I'm currently sporting has been "enabling" my procrastinate. Curiosity is starting to get the better of me though. I'll probably be mounting it on my next long weekend off. (maybe)

    Grado Cartridges and Stylus - Questions and Advice.

    I chuckled when I saw this. My Opus 3 arrived two weeks ago. It's still in the box.

    MoFi UltraDeck / StudioDeck Owners and those interested

    I'm very happy with my UltraDeck, but if I ever felt the need to replace it, these are the features I'd be looking for: Adjustable VTA - Although I'm getting really good with my allen wrench skills on the UD, a better mechanism with accurate demarcations would be extremely helpful. As it...

    New ultrasonic vinyl cleaner in the works: Humminguru

    Acoustic Sounds had the Klaudio engineer at Axpona as well, and ironically he mentioned the frequencies that he researched and what his conclusions were.

    MoFi UltraDeck / StudioDeck Owners and those interested

    Yes I did. The gentleman I spoke with said he had never heard of that issue, (this was in late 2018), but was glad I got it running again and told me to contact MoFi if it ever went dead again. (It never did.) Were I you, I would contact them right away and work toward an exchange, (or refund if...

    Just wanted to drop a line and say how much I appreciate seeing all you folks going out of your way for others. The level of community care here at N&G is a welcome surprise. Not gonna get gushy or anything, but you guys deserve a special thanks for making RSD that much better for the rest of...

    New ultrasonic vinyl cleaner in the works: Humminguru

    I prefer to clean them right away and at least do a thorough visual inspection. An immediate play through would be preferred, but life ain't fair. I've had to repurchase several LPs when I was practicing the "pile method" and ran past the warranty/return period before discovering the flaws.
