What's your favorite lyric from a song?
"Kick out the jams, m****rf*****rs!" - MC5! Available on early LP pressings (I have one!). Later censored by the Corporate suits! 
What speakers work well against a wall
Allison - designed for against-the-wall for best bass response! So are my Snell Type AIII's. 
What is the most important component in your system.
+1 mapman! Ohm Walsh's are capable of astounding 3-D imaging with "performers in the room"! They can be considered the most important component! 
Used none working Pioneer PL-L1000 worth
You might want to look for a Mitsubishi LT instead. I have one - excellent TT! 
Used none working Pioneer PL-L1000 worth
Correction: PLX1000! 
Buying from Europe
The price ($650) was right! How could I pass them up! Maybe the best sounding small-box speakers (others will disagree)! 
Buying from Europe
Nothing wrong with them - they sound just fine! And yes, geoffkait, they were even cheaper back in '76 - '77 ($450)! Wish I had bought a pair then! 
Why people says SE is better PP
I have a Will Vincent (autospec) SE45 built on a Dynaco chassis. Only 1.75 watts but it sure can get my vintage Heresy's to go loud! 
Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions
Mogami 2477 Blue Neglex OFC 12 guage coaxial cable. I had two 20ft pieces in use with my KLH Nines for 23 years! Lost it when I moved to Florida. 
The Absolute Sound vs Stereophile
Stereophile: Love all those full-page ads for cables! Gotta have 'em to keep the "True Believers" happy! 
The Absolute Sound vs Stereophile
TAS: pushing the high-priced spread. "I can't believe it's not b*tter!" U or E - you choose! 
Audio for the Young - Noho Sound
That was a GEICO commercial and the speakers were JBL 4312's (I have a pair!). Also seen on a rack were a turntable, integrated amp and LPs!  
Dynavector DV20X2H or DV20X2L
Just stating my credentials! 
Can every tonearm be set up with Stevenson, Baerwald, or Lofgren?
Try a different headshell that allows more forward movement of the cartridge. Longer slots! 
Can every tonearm be set up with Stevenson, Baerwald, or Lofgren?
Linear tonearms only require that the stylus is centered at the apex of the spindle. Easy! No overhang and offset angle to fiddle with!
