| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @dogberry Yes it’s quite a complicated whose-who with the Garrard franchise over the years… Swindon was in the past a great base for everything ‘round’ Great Western Railways and the train maintenance centre, Garrard turntables, And (noto... | |
| Movie/film suggestions. @thecarpathian l watched ‘’Cussandbanter’’ in the last few days…..it was much longer than I remember but this time in full colour and hi-fi sound. One great line that will live in infamy……’’Of all the Jack Daniel’s oval offices in the world, he... | |
| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @dover That reply to @richardbrand went right over my head……. Englebert Humperdinck (real name Arnold Dorsey) lives just up the road from me in Devon, England. Shall l ask him if it was him? | |
| Cambridge Audio 740 cdp dying...suggested replacement? OLD POST l KNOW but still relevant for someone in the same position. New Cambridge CXC CD player (or a second hand 752BD Universal player) Find a Cambridge CXC transport and you will have an upgrade but will need a DAC or compatible amplifier. I ... | |
| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @richardbrand Resurrecting the Garrard 301 l’m afraid the rejuvenated 301 (from old stock rebuilds) is now looking more expensive than what you quoted. Loricraft are making a packet of money even if they can only achieve one deck sale every two... | |
| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @richardbrand 301 & 401 The Garrard’s were mainly sold as just decks…..no plinth. Lots of hi-fi enthusiasts as they were called then simply mounted them as required. SME…. The company has stopped supplying individual models now and only s... | |
| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @richardbrand Yes Richard, you have the SME Plinth System l mentioned. You could buy all the parts separately. When l bought the 401 from a friend he had the deck mounted on a hi-fi bench with just the Perspex lid. As he was an electrical engine... | |
| Movie/film suggestions. @bdp24 Thank you for lengthly reply to my comment. Your political leaning in your original post just went right over my head. I did wonder why The Madness of King George was mentioned. I hated the music score and sold the CD recently….not one o... | |
| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @daveyf Dire Straits Private Investigations ‘’breaking milk bottle’’ and ‘‘intimacy’’ test with a pussy….yes there is a ‘musical’ one in there. Knopfler implies with his guitar that a cat knocks over said milk bottle. It is quite a good test be... | |
| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @lewm Pre-groove inter-modulation. Yes that can be easily a case if a heavily modulated track is present perpendicular to where the stylus is tracking. There is some heat generated by the cutting stylus which can meld into the adjacent track….t... | |
| Movie/film suggestions. I was thinking of commenting on this subject after reading the original question. The OP appeared to me to originally ask,’’Pretty much all of us are lovers of movies’’… ‘The reproduction of sound they contain’’ From a technical viewpoint and be... | |
| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @lewm @daveyf Is it noise or is it really there? Not talking about noise from the turntable but from the mechanics of ‘cutting’ a record. Do you find it interesting to hear things between the tracks? l had never noticed there was ‘... | |
| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @daveyf An old friend of mine, now sadly upstairs and now looking down on us kind of worshipped his Hi-Fi. He never stuck with the same brands and I was always conveniently right behind him when he was upgrading and l bought two turntables. l r... | |
| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @lewm Damped suspension The logic bounce l referred to is excess downforce applied to the spindle while playing a record. The sub-chassis will violently bounce up and down and the cartridge will not leave the groove. Also no change in the pitch... | |
| Linn Bedrok LP12 Plinth Upgrade @noromance Well explained definition of tweaking and tinkering. Your example, ‘l have a well-fettled LP12’ made me smile….. l expect those with one have had an equally well-fettled wallet over the years if the TT has been incrementally upgrade... |
