Very nice deck. I’m a sucker for transparent acrylic…

I know, I’m very tempted even though I absolutely do not need it…lol
Also very partial to the transparent look but I also really like the audiophile side of it especially where they include a Shibata stylus for the cartridge which is about as good as it gets!

I would be tempted if it was direct drive. I love their cartridges though.

My good old Pro-Ject 2Xperience Acryl with the beautiful Gold Note Boboli High Output MC will still have to suffice. I wouldn’t buy the Audio-Technica just on spec. But - it looks great… And it certainly doesn’t sound bad either.

New arrival - the 2022 Giles Martin remix.

Unfortunately, my TT is packed up whilst house renovations are under way. It’s going to be a while until I hear it. Fortunately Qobuz has at least allowed assessment of the release - and it is rather well done.

Japanese import from the mid 1970s.



Now that’s the proper way to enjoy live, electric Miles!

I had no plans to buy a turntable, but I really like @UliR’s turntable, and this Audio Technica.

Like many, it seems that transparent acrylic design sucks us in.
I asked Mrs.Rimmer to add it to the Xmas list…we will see :wink:

Usaudiomart, Audiogon and eBay do not help :rofl:

Arrived this morning. No idea what ‘Super Wide Stereo’ is!
At 74, Mr Rundgren is still capable of creating interesting music.

That is a great album though. I have the original and love it.

I will have a look, I have all the Cure albums up to staring at the sea on CD (and then the next two or 3 as well), but only sure I have one album on vinyl.

I have started to catalog and tag them on Roon but I keep buying more so I am not getting through that many. I might have a listening session tonight (Boys don’t cry on vinyl)
