All of a sudden, my Audio-Technica turntable won't power on. I've checked the plugs going into both the turntable and the wall outlet and they're secure. The receiver that's plugged into the same wall outlet powers on just fine. I tried plugging the turntable into the socket of the outlet that the receiver was plugged into and it made no difference. Any ideas what else I should check?

Last year when Jack joined finances with Tom Kartsotis to buy the building on Canfield Ave, the announcement mentioned that Shinola was going to come out with a line of audio products. Here we go-- https://www.shinola.com/audio.html#/

According to this, it's going to be $2,500 retail-- http://hypebeast.com/2016/10/shinola-un ... re+buttons

I pulled the trigger on this. I have a whole-home audio system so it'll be really useful to be able to move my turntable around and listen where ever I want. Right now I have tree turntable hookups but I need a player at each one and none of them are close to my kitchen..

Has anyone tried The GrooveWasher Record Cleaning Kit that TMR has on their store page? Interested to hear some reviews from folks who have bought it.
