I worked 'em GOOOOD              After all I been through? Damn straight I worked 'em :)              I have the local Jazz station playing and so far so good, but it will       take some time to be absolutely kinda sure. These old Japanese beasts       are such great machines I just hated to let this one languish. In the       meantime I fixed the reluctant tray on a NAD C-451 CD player. Apparently       the factory installed belt on these machines didn't quite cut it. This       one was reluctant to open fresh out of the box. A new 69ยข O-ring did       the trick. Next I have an Advent 300 and a Harman Kardon 930 that need       attention.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
