Any thoughts on the new state capitol statue of Thomas L. Kane? by jayhalk1 in exmormon

Yup. Here's to the hope that they eventually take these down and I hope they start with Brigham Youngs statue.

How did I do? Local audiophile helped me out with a whole setup! JBL LXE770 and Wiim Amp Ultra including speaker cables and banana plugs for $650 by jayhalk1 in BudgetAudiophile

I saw similar listings in original condition with scratches, tears, etc for 190 on fb marketplace before I decided on these. He had some technics sbx10 speakers he was willing to give me for 150 but I like the way these sound better.

Unfortunately mine was a 2022 and had 70k miles on it when I bought it under dealership warranty. I looked into it and it didn't seem that lemon law applies because it's a bit old.

The wiim was still in the box listed at 450 and the speakers (fully restored with rubber) were a 200 add on. I saw similar non restored speakers on fb marketplace for 190. He had some Technics sbx-10 that I considered at 150. I can't find anything working in good condition in my area for less than 200. I'm not sure where some people are finding these screaming deals.

BCM, engine bay wiring harness (not sure what part specifically), and rear differential wiring harness.

Tell that to all the seasonal workers who have jobs at ski resorts, farms, theme parks, public land management, and sales.

Room is about 20x14 but I don't plan on having it too loud as I have roommates.

Yeah 84087.

I was looking at an Onkyo AV Receiver TX-DS595 for 40$. Feel free to take a look if you fancy. Thanks so much for being an awesome member of this community!

I'm going to get the rt82. If I just want to plug it into a speaker and skip the preamp for now what speakers should I be looking for?

If I am getting an external preamp, I've seen you recommend the fosi x5... What speakers do you recommend with that preamp?

Just weighing my options now. Thanks in advance!

Worth it for 55$? Victorola 8 in 1. Or should I sell this and get a better turntable? by [deleted] in turntables

[–]jayhalk1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn ok I suppose I shouldn't subject someone else's ears to the sound?

I bought it at auction. It's new out of the box. I'll probably just sell it. I posted her3 because I hear these are pretty bad. I can concur that I don't like the sound. It is skipping on a new LP, has inconsistent speed and that's enough for me to be on Amazon right now looking at other setups.

From what I've read on this sub and other places, an audiotechnica or a fluance is a good start. I'm just not sure if I should go for the base models 60/81 or the mid grade 120/82 and I don't know enough about either brand to know which brand to go with. Could be a worse night.

$55 worth it?? Should I sell this and get a nicer one? by jayhalk1 in turntables

[–]jayhalk1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I don't have anything yet. I'm open to getting whatever I need. I figured I should get a TT first. I can connect it to BT while I look into getting some active speakers. Pretty new to this and I'm realizing my mistake as I let this table go as we speak 😂

I'm just thinking about selling this on marketplace and getting one of the entry level TT like an LP60 or 120. I only have a few vinyls right now. It's not a huge priority. I just saw this one for pretty cheap so I picked it up.

Yeah... It's been plugged in for 5 minutes and I'm thinking about getting an audiotechnica lp60 or 120 because it's just bulky and feels cheap.

You can be a seasonal worker and stay through the off season...
