Probably when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce us under absolute Despotism.

The bourgeoisie are not determinant of their will to revolt. Just sticks and logs. They are stoked and roused under the metered hand of a decisive master, and set to flame. In the end, when their passion burns out, maybe there is peace, less hunger, less rape, less cruelty. But the diseases that enabled the starvation, rape, and cruelty are still in place, waiting for the benevolent leadership to give way to ambitious leadership, and all ambition will lead back to cruelty. Recognize, and embrace. It's worth it. The alternative is a death of the soul.

Which stylus?
Audio-Technica VM540ML. At $50 a month thru Amazon it was a no brainier and at the right price point. If I was going to spend more on a cartridge, it would be on a better turntable than an AT120

Technics 1200s and Shure M44-7 all day here. DJ life. I still can't believe Shure discontinued all phono products.

Same here. It's the only one for me. I've tried Audio Technica, Ortofon, and others but the Shure M44-7 destroys them all.

G, your not using a bad turntable. They are discontinued like Skate mentioned but if you could find one at a decent price you won't regret it. The difference is night and day.

These are impossible to get anymore. Still looking for something better than concords; we need to start a kickstarter for getting the tool and die sets to redux these carts up.

*concords do well enough on control vinyl, I miss Shures for my old 45s the most.

Oh I'd love to get a Shure as well, but since they're discontinued I went with something else. Wasn't a fan of Ortofon or Grado, if I can find a Shure though I'm in for 2

Jico from Japan still makes some great stylus replacements. Not cheap but worth it if you still own the m44-7

I can attest to these. They sound amazing, about the same as original stylus. I will say the originals hold better on aggressive scratches but it's not by much.

So people only got 600 bucks and not 2000?

I wonder what it would take to get a revolution going in America.

MConnel and Pelosi's house got vandalized. Sorry not sorry but I feel a bit of schadenfreude. I try to do my best to control those types of emotions too.

I have a deviated septum as well. I had some ENT specialist at the VA offer to fix it for free but i passed. Just him sticking the tube tool down my nose and looking around gave me some sort of reaction and was afraid of the procedure making me more susecptable to dust pollution and allergens.

On the bright side my allergies have cleared up in the last few years and at 45 I'm beginning to be able to close my mouth and breath through my nose. I get tons of weird boogers and need to blow it several times a day though.

Hey Spike Spiegal how did your procedure end up working out for you?

Don't worries guys. If, tonight, the Democrats win Georgia with the Senate, we will have a 3rd $2k Biden check. :multi_co:
