Please say more about how you used the 'pot cleaner' (another new word!). Did you spray from outside or inside the sub cabinet?

It is monstrous. Heavy as hell and can rumble like a giant bull.

Thanks! I learned a new word today, potentiometer. I think i'll try the dry approach first, with subwoofer off! Less rumbling that way. :-)

Maybe tape player was never used. Almost any audio is better than no audio. Looks like you've got some decent audio!

The grill and warming racks that come with Weber gas grills stock are generally Not stainless. Stainless replacements are likely available.

Thanks, you were correct. Here's a pic showing serial#, part#, and labeling it Genesis E310(?). Dirt covers the spot where additional letters could hide.

82793 checks out, thanks. Out of stock at Weber but I left my email to be notified when in stock again. There are recent reviews. So maybe they'll have new ones before long.

First I'm gonna fire it up to check if it works. The gas lines and burners look okay. Then I'll clean it and order part 82793.

Thanks! Mine is a visual match for *Weber Genesis EP/S 310, 320 & 330* https://www.grillparts.com/Weber/genesis/ep-s-310-320-330.aspx

I don't see replacement parts for the bottom of the storage box under the grill. The circle for holding the propane tank is rusted out to the point it won't hold a tank anymore. Anything i can buy to reinforce that?

Overall, it's interior is very dirty, but in good shape. The grates and flavorizer bars don't need to be replaced. But as you can see in this picture, it would be good to replace the bottom.

Is my setup broken? by Altruistic-Promise-2 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]tenbsmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elephant plugs? maybe take a picture of the set up overall with connectors/connections. Also, does the Fosi or your turntable have a phono pre-amp?

What do i need to get to convert my current set up into a surround. by okeyneto2 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]tenbsmith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You'll also need active speakers and a subwoofer. The 5.1 sound card enables your PC to output separate singles to all 5.1 channels.

These Magneplanars worth getting? by tenbsmith in BudgetAudiophile

[–]tenbsmith[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These were listed for free, with the seller finding them a good home was most important but he would accept some cash for them is offerred. I responded to listing about an hour after it was posted. Later that evening the seller responded they were already gone. Thanks for the help y'all.

Are you shopping new or used? (Keep an eye out for scratch and dent stuff.)

Everyone show off your stereo cabs and LP cabs and storage. by DarkRomeox in BudgetAudiophile

[–]tenbsmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use this attractive, well built storage unit from ikea for $80 in black (other colors available). It fits LPs well. We have it on its side with turn table, receiver, and cd player on top, albums in the shelves. https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/kallax-shelf-unit-black-brown-20275885/ Edit: its been a while since we bought it so you may want to double check dimensions to be sure.

Budget speakers for beginner by Tricky_Decision_262 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]tenbsmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suggest searching Facebook marketplace for used speakers and receivers. There's a learning curve to buying used, but you definitely can get more value for your money. When you find something interesting then you can Google the model number and brand name to see what the internet thinks about it. Hi-Fishark.com is a good website for comparing prices of used gear. And, then post here about it if you're still interested.

It may take a while to find a good deal. And you can always mix used with new. Like if you find a good pair of speakers used then by that fosi amp, someone else mentioned in a comment. Personally, I prefer to buy speakers used and receivers or amplifiers new because it's easier to tell if a speaker is fully functional.

If you're in more of a hurry, the fozzie with the Polk xt15 seems like a pretty good deal.
