Vinyl - Record Spinning


Full Range

Recommended Posts


I know that my good forum friends in the USA and Europe are in the midst of freezing temperatures 

 

But we have a heat wave warning in place today with 35+ C but the killer is 90% humidity 

The best option is to be holed up with the aircon on and play music in between tax paperwork 

 

So first up is 

 

Artist - Fleetwood Mac 

Title - Rumours

Every 3 months I pay close to $5 k to the tax man 

And multi nationals pay zero it’s not fair 

Well, Germany is the tax world champion, from every singel € we earn , the net value after taxes is 30 cent , so 70 % are taxes .

And the bloody multi nationals probably don’t pay tax in Germany either?

Great shirt!  OK, so here is what I was playing most recently.   This is my Dual 1229Q TT, which I hook up when I want to play quadraphonic (what the "Q" is for).  I have several vintage Pioneer turntables that are also quad "rated", but the Dual currently has an AT 1440MLB cart which is the only one that can do CD-4 (quadradisc) records.  Sticky Fingers is, obviously stereo.  Can't you hear me knocking?thumbnail.thumb.jpeg.93ec7cfcf2f993e26729eceeb6d43f3e.jpeg

That turntable rig is insane.  I assume there is a reason for the two tonearms, but if you already have perfection what does the 2nd one get you? 

The reason is that my collection of cartridges needs a very light tonearm , thats the SME 3009 ( left side ) and a middel heavy tonearm , thats the MA 505 ( right side ) . They all have different needle compilances.

 

If you want to get more aknowledgement I´ll kindly refer to read this thread

Ok. That makes sense now. I do understand that changing the counterweight alone does not change the tonearm’s impact on the cart.  I just thought you had to have two turntables or swap out the tonearms!
