Question KLH Model Twenty Replacements Parts?
I'm looking for a replacement electric cord for a KLH Model Twenty turntable. The turntable itself was purchased in 1965. I'm only looking for the wire to connect the system to an electrical outlet. Any ideas?

Best Answer Call your local radio shack. They probably stock all the parts you need. Or look up repair shops that will sell you the parts.

Question Speakers for my turntable system?
Okay last question I PROMISE. Two of four components have already been bought/shipped/etc. Turntable: Denon DP 300F w/ PHONO [BOUGHT] Cartridge: Denon DL-110 or Audio Technica AT-440MLA (haven't bought yet, going to buy today) Amp: NAD C315BEE [BOUGHT] Speakers: haven't decided yet. The reason why I haven't bought speakers yet is because I've had twenty different recs for speakers, and I honestly have no idea what to do with those twenty recs, haha. My music taste: I don't have a very diverse music taste at all. I probably will NOT ever run jazz, classical, country, or classic rock through my speakers. I'd say around 70% of the bands I listen to fall under the pop rock/pop punk/punk rock spectrum.. Fast-paced (not always but usually), simple riffs, higher mid range vocals, bass. sometimes violin in the case of Yellowcard. Some of these bands are super raw sounding, some of them have really polished production, but they're still pop punk. The remaining 30% consist of bands like Bright Eyes (acoustic folk rock), Brand New (weird mellow rock, I'd call them alternative rock), various indie rock/alternative rock bands, and maybe three or four hardcore bands. I don't want the overall sound to be identical to what I hear on CD's, instead I really want it to have its own --- color, so to speak. I don't have much space in my room, and I definitely won't be able to place the speakers more than 2 feet away from a wall (and even that's really pushing it). I won't play music at excessively loud volumes, since the apartment isn't completely soundproof and I live on the third floor. Recommendations I've gotten that are in my price range (i.e. no Thiel, Vandersteen, etc. even though they're probably really nice speakers) Boston Acoustics A26 Energy CB-20 or CB-10 Polk Monitor 50 Infinity Primus P252 Cambridge Soundworks Model 6 PSB speakers KLH 6 or 17 Advent Large Loudspeaker with walnut cabinets Wharfdale Pacific EVo 30 Wharfdale Diamond 10.1 Wharfdale Diamond 9.6 Pioneer SP-BS41-LR Sony SSF 7000 I'd appreciate any help even narrowing down this list to three or four, because I simply can't work with all of these, haha. I'm flexible budget-wise (nothing over 0-400), I'm more concerned about the size of the speakers, placement issues, overall sound/compatibility with the rest of my system and my music taste, etc., etc. THANK YOU :D By the way, unless the speakers are really really outstanding for their price. I'm very iffy about under 0 speakers. VERY, VERY IFFY, haha. So far I'm leaning towards the Wharfdale simply because I've gotten three recs for them total on two different websites, but that's just an unfounded bias XD I'm in the US, don't know why I'm on the UK Y!A, haha @Kevin L can Vandersteens be placed near a wall? If so, I'll definitely get them, that was pretty much my only concern next to price but the 1C's seem to be in my price range.

Best Answer Get the Vandersteen 1C's new or older models used if you cant spend that much. You can find them used on Audiogon fairly often. Trust me you'll love them, all the others your looking at are low end in comparison. Thiels are good too but the Vandersteens for the type of music you listen to would be a much better choice. You can thank me later Edit: As with all speakers speaker placement makes a huge difference in the overal frequency responce and especially bass responce. Being that they are two way transmission line design will have good bass for a two way, they are easy to drive, do not present a difficult load for the amplifier to drive, just about anything can drive them and they easy to place in a room, so yes they almost the perfect budget loudspeaker. No worries with placement. Kevin 40 years high end audio video specialist
