  If you decide to keep the rig (Clearaudio does make pretty gear), get the dealer to install the cart and start hitting Goodwill and other thrift shops. It's not as good as it was 15 years ago, when I found some great stuff at Goodwill, but I still find some nice things in the thrifts (actually, here in San Diego County, Amvets is better).

  Seriously, most of the vinyl I buy is used, and most of it is very good. The flaws of compromised records (discards or reissues) have become far less bothersome to me than the flaws of bad or even mediocre digital.

  I've got a decent DAC, but I find myself spending less and less time listening to it. And this is coming from someone who grew up in the cassette/cd era.

  and kept posting all kinds of stuff now. Nice pic on AgoN, too.

  Then, all of a sudden, more posts and so called audio nervosa started beginning with the Jolida suitability.
