Hey guys,

I am sure most of you in this thread already know that Marco is a good dude. I just wanted to share how much he helped me out.

My house flooded, and about 75% of my records got wet. I posted in here that week, asking if there was any reason to try to salvage them, or should I just toss them. Marco offered to help me wash and resleeve them.

I went over to his home and brought 4 milk crates full of records in their wet inner sleeves. He and I listened to some good music and worked for 7 or 8 hours cleaning, drying and resleeving them in generic sleeves.

It was a slow process, and we got through 3 of the 4 crates. I had to head home, but he finished the last crate for me on his own.

He and his wife also treated me to a delicious dinner. I got to listen to both of his systems. Definitely the best I have heard before.

I felt hopeless after the records all got wet, and was close to chunking them. A lot of them had sentimental value because my dad gave them to me. Marco helped me save all the music, which is the most important part to me.

So Marco, once again, thank you so much for your help and hospitality. I will forever be grateful, and every time I play one of those records, I will remember how you helped me.

Yup... No doubt he's a solid dude.

Have to watch him though... He is good at making you buy shite!

Marco, man I'm itching to get these vandersteens and cables ordered. Will probably do it in the next week or so hopefully. Just too much shite still going on with this flood crap to be able to spend the time to do it and get things set up. Hard going in my closet and seeing the quad and vpi boxes!

Marco deserves an award, seriously. He gives and gives and asks for nothing in return.

MB #1 poster IMO.
