MicroMara Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 we had a rainy day today , after I finished my houseworks I started to spin some records .. thanx for the inspiration @Full Range next was Santana 3 ( Batuka ) followed by Wishbone Ash " Front Page News " and after dinner I spun the german " Genesis " Triumvirat with " Illusion on a double dimple " now I´m done 😂 btw , I reactivated my Audio Technica AT 7 V today . As it´s a hard complied cantilever it needs a heavy tonarm to perform on it´s best level, so I used a 15 Gram Headshell and a second counterweight on my MA 505 MK II Tonearm to get it work, I can tell you buddies ...it rocks ! want to mention that I´m waiting for the deliverence from another famous cart , will tell you w/in the next few days, thought it arrives today, but it will be delivered early next week 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Sir, may byte me! 😂😂😂 FYI my Linn dude puts a couple lil arrows on my belt so every year I just flip it. Told me it would last about 5-10years that way. On year 3 and just flipped it last week. Last I checked it was running @ 33.32 rpm's. Cart hours? Logs? Nickle dime stuff? Blah! You obviously need something to do with your spare time. 😂😂😂 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You youngsters today are so picky. Back when I was young, we'd just tape a heavy coin or two to the head shell. No skipping then. And we liked it! Seriously, I once saw a record player with a steel bottle/can opener taped to the tonearm. Tracking weight was probably 50-100 grams! BTW, great taste in music. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
