The New Jersey Audio Society is pleased to announce its October meeting!

The theme is DIY electronics.

We will be welcoming Mr. Bob Cordell, who will introduce his new book on Class-D amplifier design.

Our host, Jack Walton, will be bringing his system to provide music, so please bring any music you'd like to hear.

I don't normally read the Industry Updates section but something about Mr. Fremer traveling to Venice (pg.s 13-15) just caught my eye so I read on. I have say, not only was it a fun travelogue piece, it was really funny. Of note was his droll descriptions of the deep end that so much modern art has gone off. In particular the 15 foot Teddy bear humping an equally over-sized rabbit and it's relation to artists and wealthy patrons. My feelings exactly- and I went to art school!

Don't take it up a notch, see what can happen:

Greetings. This is my first post. I've signed on for the journey into hi-fi, if that's still the preferred nomenclature. My first purchase was a Marantz 2250 receiver. I bought it on the basis of some research and guidance from trusted friends.

"I'm getting out of audio completely, and am liquidating everything I have."

that was a short-lived romp in audiophilia!

I ask because previously I had some good experiences with them (I say them but I think it's just one guy). They have some bigger gear, but mostly I have bought setup and tracking force gauges, replacement belts and the like. Turntable accessories mostly. They have a huge replacement belt selection though! A few years ago I got a duplicate belt for my well Tempered TT for a third of what the manufacturer was selling, and to my ears it was identical. If anything it was more durable too.
