Very pleased.  I have rediscovered a number of older CD's and I have been feverishly adding new selections.  I think I am going to box up some of my older CD's because of their poor recording quality.  I have been toying with the idea of hooking up an old tuner.

Very cool. Sounds good. Do you listen to LPs?

About 10 years ago my youngest son appropriated my turntable and album collection.  About the time I was going to ask for it back my grandson decided it was a great plaything and so much for the turntable.  I have toyed with the idea of buying a new turntable but haven't pulled the trigger.

Ok, cool. As the resident vinyl nut here, I highly recommend that you do. It doesn't have to be too expensive. I recommend believe it or not, the Technics 1210M5G with Audio-Technica AT150MLX cartridge. This will set you back about $1300, give or take.

Thanks for the input.  It's not so much the cost of the turntable, but the cost of putting together another LP collection and figuring out where I can conveniently place both the turntable and LP's.  I don't have a dedicated listening room so whatever I do has to fit in my existing cabinet space and pass the critical eye of my better half.

You're welcome. I see. Well, do what you can. No worries.
