http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/fuo/1491831942.html Is this a good value? I'm tempted but I'm not all that knowledgeable on older items.

I know this is more for vintage items and all but Insound is going out of business and they have 35% off site wide so in case anyone needs to get any new vinyl. The turntables are also on discount so I ended up buying a Rega RP1 w/ performance pack for less than what the Rega RP1 usually goes for.

Bape Culture posted:Does anyone have a rega rp1 performance or a project debut carbon? I got an RP1 w/ performance pack since I got it new for the same price as a regular RP1. I get compliments on it all the time since it's so clean and minimalistic. My roomie hates it since she's used to automatics and thinks it's too complicated (it's not). I'm thinking of getting a separate phono stage to upgrade the one in my receiver and then god, I guess I'll upgrade my speakers. Getting into audio stuff is a long expensive rabbit hole.

Bape Culture posted:So if I buy either of the tables plus a tc750 I am good to go? You'll still need an amp+speakers or powered speakers. As I said, it's a deep expensive rabbit hole but hey, at least either player will look sexy.

I think the thing I hated more about the floating record player is that you have to screw the record in.

JebanyPedal posted:What's a decent belt-driven turntable? $300-600 bucks is my range. The Rega Planar 1 should be under $500. You'll also need a phone preamp to convert the teeny signal from the turntable to a line level that your amp can make out.

I feel special, I replaced my first cartridge without destroying anything. The dog jumped into the table while I was playing something and the needle became toast (and scratched up a Yeah Yeah Yeahs lp). I ended up upgrading my Rega Bias to an Elys 2 since I already have a Rega phono preamp that's designed for their cartridges. Anyway, how isn't there a standard plug and play method to just plug in a new cartridge? I'm sure it's due to customization purposes. Aside from the high end Ortofon Black that plugs into S-shaped tone arms, is there another one that lets you unscrew a part and plug it in? It's silly that in this year of our Lord 2021 you still need a protractor to verify that your cartridge is setup correctly.

CC audio was truly a great little device at an insanely cheap price point. My only issue is that it streamed Spotify at a lower bitrate than my home theater amp that has Spotify Connect (I also tried Tidal Hifi on CC Audio and that sounded much better but I just didn't like the interface and having to start over after using Spotify for years), hoping that the eventual (never releasing) upgrade to CD quality finally ends up fixing that. Anyway, I spent time looking for an additional network streamer and and the cheapest and closest I got to what I wanted was from Arylic. Check out the S10, looks to be $80 and requires that you use their app but it should allow you to stream Spotify. Ultimately I didn't end up buying the bigger brother since I wanted to just use the native Spotify app. https://www.arylic.com/products/s10-wireless-preamplifier Edit: I was wrong, the S10 has Spotify Connect so you can stream directly from the native Spotify app. Animale fucked around with this message at 18:25 on Oct 3, 2021 |

The Bandit posted:I used a piece of paper and a 40+ year old shure force gage to set mine up… It looks like it doesn't even have a stylus force gauge to so he'll need something else. Might I recommend this digital one for only $300. https://www.musicdirect.com/accessories/Clearaudio-Weight-Watcher-Touch-Electronic-Stylus-Force-Gauge

Bonxai posted:I'm looking to upgrade my AT-LP120X to a ML stylus, and I can't figure out if I just need to get the stylus or replace the whole cartridge. Apparently the ML stylus is compatible with my current AT-VM95E cartridge, but if you buy the ML stylus bundled with a cartridge it comes with a AT-VM95ML cart. Basically trying to figure out which of these I should buy: From audio Technica's website, All VM95 models have removable styli and the same body design, enabling vinyl enthusiasts to interchange and upgrade any VM95 cartridge with any VM95 stylus type. So you're good with just the stylus.
