As displayname noted , I was equally surprised when I went through the same thing a year or more ago . I have an old school system and all components except the TT are over 20 years old . I had tweaked everything except power cables and outlets over the years . After these things went into the...

Also looks like my Master Tracker .

I keep mine in a little container that I can reverse the top and hold it while I drop the stylis onto the blue tack

Add me to that list .

In the dishwasher that must be a first and unique approach to cleaning a cart.

Are we at the tipping point of puns yet ----I expect not .

Thanks , this was my concern and one of the reasons i did not get a microscope and got a loupe lens instead .

Out of interest what were the issues that caused you to return it , ease of use , ability to focus ect ?

I have a 10 x loupe lens from university used to view minerals and while its good quality sorry 10 power does not cut it . I have a cheap 40 power and it works understanding that as the power goes up the depth of field on these inexpensive loop lens becomes quite small . There is a learning...

My purchase of the HD600 was also a black friday impulse buy as I was going to just use my old Yamaha HP-1 with the new Atom 2 headphone amp and a new extension cable . Being able to move out of the restrictive open air sweet spot of the speaker system is growing on me . I now can sit at my...

I am still adjusting to by HD600 as I have not used headphones for a long time . I can only have them on for a couple of hours as I get the "Sennheiser clamp ". I store them on an old fence post finial that looks like this , hope it will stretch them out a bit . Proper headphone stand is on its...

I have not purchased a new record for a bit going to focus on listening to the collection through the new Atom headphone amp and HD600. Have not had a pair of headphones on for a very very long time . Trying to get use to sounds waves bouncing around between the ears rather then the walls ...
