Speaking of whores, why the h___ don't more turntable manufacturers acknowledge the vast library of 45's and 78's by including these options? Obsolete? Yeah, so was vinyl according to every idiot when the first excruciating CD players came out, and now I don't even want to think about the irreplacable albums that have come and gone over the years.And mind you, I own one of the offending products, an otherwise servicable Linn LP12. Serviceable that is, until my spouse wanted to play a classic 45 she rediscovered in our mutual collection. I had no plausible answer for her Sondek sniping. So, psychicman, tell cornfedboy to stick a cob in it. Keep in mind, I only pick on people I like. :)
Help needed to set up an analog system
I want to set up an analog system from scratch after a few nothing but thrilled vinyl cf CD experience. However, I'm a total nut here. Anyone know any good resources/reference/literature like 'Analog system ABC' or 'Analog system for dummies' etc cause I've heard of all those pains in the neck in setting up a vinyl system after hearing all these scary jargons such as hard/soft suspension, antiskating, VTA,... etc. Just hope to learn the basics before field work. Appreciate all inputs.
