| Technics SL-1210GAE Anniversary delivery . Thank you Chakster. That is fascinating & I stand corrected.Those pitch anomalies you describe explain why I hear some classical recordings as sounding ‘off’ - but others so ‘right’ (when by chance the pitch matches that of the original orches... | |
| Technics SL-1210GAE Anniversary delivery . @vinylnostalgicI've not seen any reviews, but I've owned one for the past 8 months so I can give my thoughts -- obviously anecdotal / subjective (even more so because it's the first deck I've owned in 30 years so I don't really have anything to go... | |
| Does the Audio Industry Have a Quality Problem? @tomcy6’s points about the compromises that are inherent in cost-efficient manufacturing are very salient. I have some experience of mass manufacturing quality control and know that it is (or at least it used to be many years ago) done through ran... | |

The analog is impossible to describe in the HiFi sense. It connects with me instantly, and I cannot use HiFi descriptors at all, as in it turns off my ... | |
| Anybody added a full vinyl setup to system? And? Yes, really enjoy the whole album and thus ‘getting’ a sense of what the artist was trying to achieve. I have a Linn Selekt DSM Katalyst (line-level only version - without the power amp module). Ironically, when I upgraded to the Linn only 18 mont... | |
| Anybody added a full vinyl setup to system? And? My experience is similar to yours Jeff: The Jury is still out - they both have their pluses and minuses. The new vinyl LPs I've purchased are mostly very quiet (some have faults that sound like a scratch plus the odd click and pop) but the recordi... |
