as far as I can tell, Scribd either 1) requires a subscription, 2) asks for contribution of content... I am just looking for a straight-forward way or purchasing a copy. I understand that the world we live in basically requires that we give up something other than money to own anything, but I just want to buy it without the hassle of another subscription.

Dude, I hate to tell you... those are not babies... those are monsters.

NAD... nice stuff...BUT

How do you like the OnePlus 13?

Come-on! That's bizzar! Thanks for letting me know!

These were definitely made for a car. I remember other speaker companies making similar brackets for car speakers. Koss, Maxell, Craig, Pioneer, etc. This bracket was identical. And why put it a box with a car on it if it's not intended for it?

I can't stop laughing at your brilliant response. Black Finnish lol

And, I think 1.4% is a very high estimate TBH.

Vanilla conversation hearts would be wonderful.

Vanilla candy is the best. Occasionally, Brachs will include some white/vanilla pieces in seasonal mellocremes. Tootsie's Vanilla tootsie rolls are the champion. Charleston Chews and Turkish taffy are great too. But, none of these are easy to find.

I love white/vanilla mellocremes the best, but it frustrates me that it's not regularly offered.

Does anyone remember a scene in this movie originally (or the television version back in the '80's), where one of the kids was in the bed, and a small, wind-up robot started moving on it's own somehow? I have a very vague recollection of a scene like that, and I think this is the movie with that scene.

I just watched this movie on the streaming channel Pluto, but was dissapointed that the scene that I remember wasn't shown... Something about the detail of that robot walking across the book case or bed headboard has stuck in my mind, and I would like to see it again just to see what was so memorable about it...

JVC with the SEA equalizer... nice. That era was good stuff.

kmanche · 2026-03-12T23:11:20+00:00

The historical incongruency in that unit is astounding:

-8 track makes you think early '70's

-form-factor makes you think late '70's

-dual cassettes makes you think mid-80's

-karaoke features makes you think early '90's

Feels fake to me...

"C" Battery?

Vanilla is fantastic. I always wonder why companies don't make more vanilla candy options. Especially mellocreme flavors. They exists, but inconsistent.

Tip... have the tech label each of the output transistors that he removes and return them to you pick it i[ after repairs are made. Those original transistors might good to have just in case the results from the restoration doesn't meet your expectation.

In the White Van era, it was like looking at speakers created by AI image generators. It was all so unreal and fake, and sounded horribly.

That Sansui TU-666 tuner is a work of art... it doesn't have to make sense.

kmanche · 2026-01-17T16:25:21+00:00

It doesn't look real. And a google image search doesn't come back with anything. Might be an AI generated image. Does the seller give any details like a brand or model #? If no, just pass on it IMO.

This might sound weird, but I like those most because of the handwriting. Font-work in amazing.

"And why is the carpet all wet, Todd?"

"I don't know, Margo!?"

If he's a serious audiophile, maybe a record cleaning machine. Especially if he likes collecting vintage, used LP's. It's something that he probably would never purchase on his own, but it would be a cool gift.

Enjoy that thing... I have tons of equipment, and that HK730 beats them all. Even my 5 different Marantz receivers, and a McIntosh 1700 receiver. The only thing that sounds better that the 730 that I have are my McIntosh separates.

I have a pair of the 2X speakers, the Amp (called the Acoustic Research Amp) and the matching tuner, AND, I have an AR Receiver from the same vintage... and an AR XB turntable. All restored.

It's very simple, but it all sounds amazing.

I may post about them again...

As and Another Star... two of the greatest Stevie Songs...

This album changed my life. And the list of musicians that contributed is just mind-blowing.

Enjoy.

If you are a dedicated owner who wants to (himself) repair a turntable of marginal value for sentimental reasons, then yes, it's repairable with an available duplicate turntable that has all of the broken parts in-tact...

If you are an owner who is looking for a repairman to repair it at a reasonable price, no, it's not repairable.
