    Damn! Damn! Damn!!!!!!

    Well, for only the second time in 20 odd years of being in the audiophile game I snapped the cantilever clean off my KAB/Ortofon OM-30 today!

    I guess I can take solace in the fact that it wasn't the KAB/Stanton...

    That sucks!!! Sorry to hear that. Did the same thing to my V15. Had it mounted on a headshell stored in the spare headshell holder on my turntable. Clipped it while changing records. Now when I use that holder, the stylus faces the back!!! Didn't much care for the V15. Would've been nice to get a few bucks for it though.

    Hey Bernd,
    I went to the liquor store last Friday and was planning on getting a bottle.
    I thought Glenlivet was expensive! Well I went ahead and bought the Glenlivet this time.
    The Glenmorangie had three that were aged in different types of wood casks and were about $68.00 a bottle but less than the $101.00 a bottle stuff.
    I plan to get one of each of the three when my bonus comes in.

    Hi,
    I think that's one of the few things that's still cheaper over here. My favourite is the one from the Sherry casks. A real depth of flavour and not harsh.
    I will pour one tonight and make a toast to your future purchase.
    How is the new TT ?

    Merry Christmas to you

    Yea since there were three different kind of casks I want to try them all.
    I just love the TT and dont think I have ever liked one as much as this one.
    I have played it every day since I received it.
    Everyone that listened the old Pro-ject 1.2 then listened to the Technics likes the sound of the Technics better than the the Pro-ject.
    I am really suprised at the detail this table can pick up and the dead silent background.
    No regrets
    Thinking of trying the KAB Groove master just out of curiosity though. The Shure is one heck of cart but since there is a place to keep an extra cart I think it would be fun to have KAB as well.

    I enjoy the Glenfiddich 12 year old single malt and think it is a good value and smoother than Glenlivet. I want to try the Glenmorangie. A cardiologist I know enjoys it but has never shared any with me. Maybe for New years eve I will spring for a bottle.

    Hi,

    The 12 year old Glenfiddich is a nice tipple.

    Go on get a bottle of the "Glen of Tranquility" for New Year.
