Popular Post AudioDoctor Posted November 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2019 ”Raskin, 62, said he was retiring to focus on making art. He recently underwent radiation treatments and chemotherapy for tongue cancer, which he described as “brutal.” They weren’t all vinyl stuff, they sold everything. I have to find a new source for my analog stuff now. I met Johnathan Derda from Peachtree (at the time) at The Needle Doctor, and they got me started in audio. bummer. https://www.bizjournals.com/twincities/news/2019/11/19/the-needle-doctor-is-out-turntable-specialist.html Kyhl, tmtomh and rando 2 1 No electron left behind.

AudioDoctor Posted November 21, 2019 Author Share Posted November 21, 2019 I am going to miss going over there to get something, and BS-ing with them for an hour or so and leaving with 5 more things I didn't plan on buying.
