First off I want to thank Tony L for continuing to host and moderate this Forum. It's a fun part of my life and something I look forward to, each and every day. And thanks also to the many fine folks - I consider you friends - who've shared their thoughts, comments, opinions, photos and experience over the years. THANK YOU TONY. THANK YOU PFM FRIENDS.
I'll kick the discussion off. As some of you know, I continue to be distracted by the idea of some flavor of SPU in my system. In support of that them I will probably continue to keep my eye peeled for a fair deal on a Jelco 850L or one of the other usual suspects that could support such an experiment.
I also plan to upgrade the support for my turntable to provide better isolation and the capability to refine/tweak leveling as needed.
I recently saw a Craigslist ad for Altec Valencia 846Bs at a not too unreasonable price. I might bring a pair of those in so I could do a proper shoot-out between the Altecs and the JBLs with the object being to keep the "better" pair. I proceed with caution, tho', because of my concern that I might want to keep both.
Repair/replace the Valhalla power supply on my Linn. Maybe upgrade the bearing while I'm at it. Mober? Karousel? How to decide? Who knows...
Anyway, Happy New Year to everyone and, since it's possibly a holiday where you are, I hope you enjoy an extra listening session today and a great cup of coffee.
