Re: too cheap to fix?
I finally killed the Denon multichanger in the kitchen. It had stopped loading CDs. I'd fixed it once before (stripped gear and a drive belt) so thought I'd have another go. This time found a wedged mechanism in the bit that pulls the trays back and shuffles them. Loosened that off put it back toget...

Re: got screens?
When desk space is limited I've used 4:3 as side monitors, but I like as many monitors as possible on my computer. I've been slumming it with 2 over lockdown and miss the 3rd. For a while I used a 1600 by 1200 21" sun monitor. it was huge but the picture was superb.

Re: Phono Transfer System Construction Information
