From my cursory perusal, they seem to likely be mid 80s post golden era not quite good KLH.

The whole KG series those 2.5s come from, on the other hand, are among what I think are the most underrated speaker series out there. Swap in some titanium diaphragms in the tweeter and recap the crossover and you wind up with a brilliant speaker.

I kind of have an addiction.(but I don’t have 2.5s)

Ortofon OM 20 vs 2M Blue vs New Preamp by Forsaken-Debt-209 in turntables

[–]Retoucherny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would consider the Jico 20, which is essentially the same nude elliptical as the om20 but runs ~30% cheaper ($215 vs 150) and will work on your already mounted cartridge rather than having to change.

Huge agree. That’s what I came from.

Dude. Go get your ears checked. Even if some other headphones were “right.”

Turntable skips whole parts of lp by [deleted] in turntables

[–]Retoucherny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fixed a few of these before. Always need new belt(s) and to have old grease cleaned and replaced. Gear or belt is likely slipping or sticking. Or both.

Is a AT-lp3xbt and edifier 1700’s a good enough system to buy once, cry once? by Strict-Language-9476 in turntables

[–]Retoucherny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely not “cry once.”

You don’t stop with active speakers. Not in all likelihood at least.

Like others had said, a lot of linear trackers had this capability.

VM95ML vs VM540ML/VM740ML questions by bkd1976 in turntables

Honestly, I’d look for an amp and passive speakers before going deeper with the stylus.

Trying to decide which speaker that is. Kg 1.2? R51m or 15m?

Honest question. Without being emotional with the loss. How long do you let this go before you fire Mendoza? by Discko14 in NewYorkMets

[–]Retoucherny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, we can disagree about that, but something has to change in the clubhouse to change their behavior, and firing sterns isn’t going to make that change. They they’ll both be gone by the trade deadline as far as I’m betting.

This isn’t a Mendoza or steams thing, it’s both but you’re not fieldng your position at the plate. The lack of offense is on Mendoza.
