That tonearm is entry level now?

 

It was fresh and hot when I got it on my Classic. Can not say if it was the sum of the parts or not but how's DEAD-QUIET for analog background noise with an AT33TG II Dual Moving Coil Microline!!



I have no comment on performance 

 

My comments were about cost value of the parts to the final retail asking price 

The Black Queen model is $18000 Euro - that's equal to a brand new micro car

Woot, today's the day.  Not much on the plate so turnin up the gas.  One to unzip and who knows what else.  Might even put a few away but that sounds like work.  Looking at 6 stacks leaning with each being about a 18" long.  Depressing.

 

I've been eyeing a piece of shelving board about 8 feel long I've saved in the garage.  It's from my original concrete block shelving circa 1962.  Too late to use that and I'm not gonna take a chance but...  There IS the front hallway if I move a bunch of gear and give my oldest a nice oak panel door cabinet she's been craving.  I've had that board since the beginning of it all...  😂   :)

OK George & Paul, y'all know me well enough to know I did not take your comments as a sleight!  

With how well it worked for me after I got rid of that ort elliptical needle & cart I was just surprised. Did not notice it at all the last time that floating platter record player was talked about here!

 

Love the almost @Full Range level radical aesthetics. It's George Jetson all the way!!

We are all old hands here and know how to read the room 👌

 

Next month I will be getting about 2K more in my pay for extra contract work - so I have earmarked about $500 for new vinyl 

See we are all crazy but good crazy 🤪

@dirtmudd By golly Mr. Mudd that's thinking out of the box for sure!  I like it!  It wouldn't sound right using just a land line and the Princess bedroom extension.  By golly  you could be on to something!  Thanks!    💪  🧡   :)

Well...this should be here tomorrow. Mine will be in oak in order to match my turntable. I have no idea if it will really do anything. At the very least it will look cool. If it's ineffective perhaps I will remove the spikes and put it on some isolation feet. I'm not expecting that it will be necessary. My floors are rock solid and the stand that I am using is fairly heavy. I guess the proof will be as they say, in the pudding. If it works out I'll pass the manufacturer along to the masses. Thus far, if personalized customer service is a factor. They have been spot on. I have been made to feel like a person and not just an order number.

I take my card and I stand in line

To make a buck, I work overtime

Dear Sir letters keep comin' in the mail

I work my back 'til it's racked with pain

The boss can't even recall my name

I show up late and I'm docked, it never fails

I feel like just another, spoke in a great big wheel

Like a tiny blade of grass in a great big field, whoa

To workers, I'm just another drone

To Ma Bell, I'm just another phone

I'm just another statistic on a sheet

To teachers, I'm just another child

To IRS, I'm another file

I'm just another consensus on the street

Gonna cruise outta this city, head down to the sea

Gonna shout out at the ocean, "Hey, it's me"

And I feel like a number

Feel like a number

Feel like a stranger

A stranger in this land

I feel like a number

I'm not a number

I'm not a number

Damn it I'm a man, I said I'm a man

Gonna cruise out of this city, head down to the sea

Gonna shout out at the ocean, "Hey, it's me"

And I feel like a number

Feel like a number

Feel like a stranger

Stranger in this land

Feel like a number

I'm not a number

I'm not a number

Damn it, I'm a man

I feel like a number

Feel like a number

Feel like a number

Hey

I feel like a-

I feel-

Feel like a-

Feel like a-

I feel like a-

I feel like a-

I feel like a-

I feel-

Well...look at what 20 U.S. simoleons gets you at Goodwill. A neat place to store all of your turntable crap. What once was a cigar humidor. Is now a stylish crap locker. 😁
