Re: Original RTA 12 restoration and mods
I'd JB weld them first our some sort of putty epoxy to keep them from slipping.

Re: Vincent SV-226MKII integrated
Thanks Ivan.
So here’s the deal: a few months ago the Vincent was making a clicking noise when powering on. I changed the front tube and all was well. A couple of weeks ago the clicking came back so I ordered a pair of new tubes for the back. Again, new tubes, no clicking. Well, I turn it on a couple of days ago and I’ve got no sound in the left speaker. Troubleshooting leads me to the tube which is a goner. Since the integrated is for sale, I had the box inside and I found an extra tube that I never knew I had. I put it in and, so far, problem solved. BUT, I want to give it some time before selling it now.

Re: Quick recovery for NooshinJohn
You're a Marine, so you got this.
As a Marine, you're supposed to be surrounded.
As you can see by all the well wishers, in this case they're all friendlies, so while it's a bit of a pain in the a$$, it's no sweat 🤗
At least you don't have to worry about sand fleas.

Re: RTA 12 (12A/ first version) top hat/ cover support
Specifically made for Polk at the time. You could have one scanned and then have some 3D printed, but that will not be cheap.
Thank you; 3D printing is a good suggestion. Our local library has 3D printers and residents can print @ $0.20 per gram. The key is to find an iPhone compatible with the printer and scan it. I suspect the 3D printed support will be a lot heavier than the original. Appreciate the good suggestion. These are keepers so it maybe worth it.

Re: Strictly Jazz - Suggestions and a discussion about the music.
FWIW….this thread is awesome and much appreciated.
I consider this boxed set a must have except I currently don’t own a spinner.

Re: Mid life crisis,Yea or Nay???
Thanks. That was taken last summer. It has looked that way since I brought it home in April 2008. It had 8900 miles on it when I purchased it. The guy that bought it says he’s been waiting for one the was adult owned and maintained. It had 54,880 miles when he took possession. I had a full synthetic oil change,and new tires the day before he bought it. I couldn’t sell it with the tires that were on it. They were way over due to be replaced.If that's a current pic, you took some seriously good care of it!

Re: Mid life crisis,Yea or Nay???
Did you decide what kind of tires you're going to get for the Vette?
I’m thinking Continental. I have a tire shop near me where I have a great working relationship with the manager. I’ll shop whatever I decide on, and he’ll match or beat price. I’ll be getting tires within the next 2 weeks. This Thursday I’m having a Kooks axle back exhaust put on.
