Happy Scale abucktwoeighty,"Looking back I realize I wasn’t thinking clearly and was grasping at anything to help pull me out of the depression I was in. I now listen to that system every day for hours and hours. Every day. For hours and hours. It is my sanit... | |
Is the LINN k-18 worth retipping for $100 -150 or so? gregm,Agreed. From my experiences with it, admittedly a while back, it was rather similar to an AT95, and less tonally vivid than the Nagaoka MP10.The K18s Allen screw tightening bolt for its stylus assembly did seem interesting at the time but ma... | |
Bob Dylan - "Murder Most Foul" orpheus10,"Not only did they assassinate JFK, but they assassinated his way of thinking, which was the objective."Therein lies the real tragedy. | |
Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! noromance,You know I can remember a time when some (most?) of the British audio press used to lambast decks such as the Garrards and the Technics. It was all Rega/Linn back then in the late 70s/80s.It’s quite heart-warming to see how things eventu... | |
Bob Dylan - "Murder Most Foul" tomic,"Genius he is while flipping off evil and the men who trade in it..."Well put. | |

Articles You Feel Should be Shared For sure dynamics matter, for sure timing matters, for sure imagery matters, but without vivid life-like tone they are nothing, or next to nothing for me.I've also heard some very highly regarded (and high priced) systems which couldn't reproduce ... | |
Is it all worth it? hoganpc,So you knew me 15 years ago?If and when I get back into vinyl I'll do what I should have done in the first place - buy a Technics and have done with it. | |
Corona playlist- time to smile For some strange reason Morrissey’s The More You Ignore Me the Closer I Get keeps coming to mind.https://youtu.be/jGdSpYMsk5A | |
Useful Information ozzy62 and uberwaltz,The public may not look too carefully at details but the ones not blindly tied to party (or any other) allegiance, do notice things like image, tone of voice, confidence etc.Boris Johnson, on those grounds, so far seems to be ... | |
Is it all worth it? bthemann, "Like fine carpentry, there is craft to making music and so too there is craft to the vinyl experience. By investing in the best tools you can afford and slowing down and focusing on the process as well as the result, we get closer to th... | |
Useful Information ozzy62,Anyone trying to make political capital out of this does so at their own risk.The public may be gullible at times, but they are never that stupid. | |
Useful Information It’s good to have 'decisive' guys like kenjit and miller around in these uncertain times.Keep up the good work and thanks for supplying this link miller. My eyes strangely turned moist.https://youtu.be/nMY0-4p9P-M | |
Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! A Rega P10 v Garrard 401?Dare I suggest that something is seriously wrong with the whole Rega approach if this is remotely a contest. A 2019 design v one from 45/55 years ago? It shouldn't really be a contest, or should it?My dad had a low level G... | |
Is it all worth it? Agreed. It's far more convenient (not to mention practical and cheaper) for me to play stuff off my phone via my Bluetooth speaker/headphones. With over a 1000 favourite songs or pieces to immediate hand my main system is relegated to one of two d... |
