Help with TT ideas for my first TT @kro77 each cart has it's own flavor. Most of my carts have been aligned for certain arms, but once you get the hang of it, adjusting to a different arm isn't that difficult. Mine have all been aligned by my Japanese time traveling friend. At the ... | |
Help with TT ideas for my first TT This voyage is a fun one @kro77 Glad your enjoying it. In three years, I'm at 3 TT's, two of them vintage. 6 vintage arms. 14 vintage carts. I love this ride! Vintage tubes are nice to add too. | |
Anyone tried the Ortofon Concorde century Cartridge? @rauliruegas it's possible to think dollar signs and take care of the client. You're not good a business man if you don't. Eating cabbage soup every day and living under a bridge is not something I want to do. | |
Anyone tried the Ortofon Concorde century Cartridge? Lol @rauliruegas I’ve purchased 14 vintage carts from @chakster , 5 vintage minty/NOS arms, a Victor TT101 in pristine condition and have NEVER had a problem with his service or recommendations. Not many people here do as much research or have the... | |
Cartridge recommendation please... No need to replace styli from vintage carts in my opinion. Get a great deal on an NOS under $1000 and just play it. When it's done, sell it and have someone else retip but not with original stylus of course. Pull the next vintage cart from the mus... | |
Technics SL-1210GAE Anniversary delivery . Excellent @luisma31 | |
Deck selection 2 ~ 3k @hleeid Technics 1200 GR with fixed tonearm is a nice place to get your feet wet. Swap out carts with ease. Beautiful table at a fair price. You just need it rotate at a constant speed without variance. This table does it. Love my GR! | |
Help with TT ideas for my first TT Yes @kro77 now look for reviews regarding albums you want. I bought 10 of my favorite artists albums right out of the gate and the mastering/press was terrible. Blonde, Mellencamp, Springsteen, Amy Whinehouse to name a few. Never made that mistake... | |
Technics SL-1210GAE Anniversary delivery . I wouldn’t worry @vinylnostalgic. It’s not a Technics problem but a covid/normal mail shipping issue. You're gonna love that table, if you ever get it. Speedy express is open for business but they’re not going to send it via bullet mail like Russian. | |
Help with TT ideas for my first TT Congrats @kro77 on your first deck! What cart did you choose? I'm with @bkeske go with modern cart like a MoFi to start. My first cart was a MoFi Master Tracker. It's good for the money! | |
Turntable dealer/set up percon I agree with @lewm If you have someone in your area that know's what there doing and will take the time to talk to you about the process while setting things up, this is valuable. Unfortunately in Miami, I haven't found that person. I'd love to... | |
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Welcome to PD-444 club @luisma31 I too think 3 tonearms on any table is ugly. Sometimes more isn't better. Luxman designed the perfect looking table with the ability to run two arms. Perfection! | |
Does the 33 hertz frequency turn vinyl into super vinyl "YES" A great thread to read with morning coffee and scone. Vampires and werewolves! | |
Have a Victor UA-7045 tonearm coming @billwojo no not Vlad. I will not reveal my time machine operator as I don’t want too many people invading his vault. :) Great deals do happen. I bought a mint Luxman PD444 with two NOS arm boards for $2000 from Japan 3 years ago. Had mint cover b... | |
Have a Victor UA-7045 tonearm coming NOS UA-7045 and 7082 is the way to go if you can even find them. Must have time machine. I happen to know a Russian that has a time machine with excellent Japanese connections. My samples are NOS. |
