    Yeah, I have been wanting to pull the trigger for it for the last couple of years but I know I would have put my DL-160 on the shelf to collect dust so I just road it out for awhile, and since I just upgraded my output caps in my phono pre I figured it was time I got off my **** and picked it up along with a couple of other goodies..

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    There's just nothing like vinyl to immerse you in the music. I enjoy all formats, but vinyl will always be my favorite. Hope you're enjoying the new toys. I can attest the dynavector/1200/jd-9 combo is a sweet one!

    The more I hear people talk about how they are really enjoying their vinyl the more it makes me want to get deeper into it.
    Thanks Toolfan
    I'm not opposed to getting a new Dynavector or preamp..
    But I was wondering if you guys could help me find stores in Toronto that sell the jD-9 or alternatively a place to order one online?
    Thanks

    I just got a new cartridge as well, and a new headshell! They came with my new tonearm and turntable :mrgreen: VPI Traveler with a Grado Sonata, just set it up yesterday! Have fun Larry!
    Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

    Sounds like you have a cold or flu coming on Larry.
    May want to call off tomorrow.
    You wouldn't want to spread anything.
