Re: CRS+ (2 board vs 1 board) questions.
- I've got the right mids from the second pair of 1C I bought for the Real Wood cabs and spare parts 
- Crossovers... I need to find the schematic w/ the TL mod, and a parts list. I'll see what I can dig up. Ugh... I haven't priced caps and such since January...
The CRS+ I got were sooooo wrecked.
I basically bought rough cabs, passives, and a dream.
- Has anyone tried them without the cage over the passives?

Re: Looking for help identifying and dating fathers Polk Audio 10s
Also, take a look at your tweeter route out and look at the gap around the SL1000 tweeter bezel. The SL1000 had a slightly smaller plate than the Peerless. DarqueKnight gave the measurements in his Tale of Five Tweeters epic thread. You can see that yours has a gap around the front plate. Should be about .045 to .050 in. margin around which looks about what you have.
Here's what the route out clearance typically looked like from Polk with the Peerless:

Re: Post a picture.....any picture...part deux...
My 681EEE was handy. I bought it new on Dec. 6, 1977. I bought a replacement Stanton stylus for it around 1980. The original stylus is shown with it's brush on left side in the case. The replacement is still on the cartridge on right.
I was duped back then to believe that a stylus was only good for a few hundred album plays. I've always kept my records and styluses clean.
I had the original stylus examined closely later by a tech and he said it was in great condition.
Yes, you increase tracking force by 1 gram when using the brush. I used the brush for a short time then took it off.
I always liked the sound of this cartridge.

Re: Post a picture.....any picture...part deux...
I'm a little late to this party, but agree these were/ARE very fine cartridges. In fact, JICO still makes brand-new replacement styli for certain vintage Stanton and Pickering cartridge models. I went through a stage of using this family of cartridges (almost exclusively), and always found them extremely neutral and balanced.mhardy6647 wrote: »The 681EEE in particular was a very fine piece of hardware.
I am embarrassed to say that I only learned of the... interoperability of Stanton & Pickering in the modern era; I had no idea back in the day.
That's the one I had. It had a little brush attached to it.
Between certain Stanton and Pickering cartridges, there are interchangeable styli, BUT a person must be very careful. Each brand had both MM and MI cartridges, so care must be taken if trying to do a "crossover".
Regarding the stylus brushes: my personal preference has always been to remove them. Rule of thumb is: if the brush is installed, the VTF setting should be 1g higher than typically published numbers. For example, the published VTF for a Stanton 681EEE is 0.75-1.5g, which is sans (without) the stylus brush.

Caravan • The Unauthorized Breakfast Item
I’ve had this for 9 years and I just opened it up for the first time.
Done with side one and very nice. I’m never sure what to expect when a band does an album 25 to 35 years later but this is really enjoyable.
