I like it. Works best with transparent vinyl. Will be the next fad, I guess. 

Only 50 are being made. Price on request only...

Until the Chinaman starts copying.

Cool...BTW, if you hear anything rattle inside your Technics, guess it could be the prism you are looking for.

Maybe not needed after all.

Yeah, I already gave it a careful shake - after I locked the tonearm - to no avail. 

My theory is that someone pushed it deeper into the cavity where it got stuck, or someone took it out to use it in a more valuable technics tt with the same prism...

Who needs a prism anyhow... If a Lithium battery cr2032 works like a charm...

Sure thing, a song with John Lee Hooker samples, is a problematic track on St Germain's Tourist. 

It has unintended cracks all through the track, reported by many others. A pressing error? 

My Pro-Ject TT can't play the track, nor can my Onkyo. 

 

So what about the linear tracking SL DL1? It plays the 'faulty' track without issues. Linear tracking rules!

I like Eno, but that is just bullshit.


Sometime back I believe he was involved is a city lights art project 

Think it was Sydney Australia called Vivid 

 

Also some framed installations on another project in San Francisco

I have my thinking cap on

If you can’t get a replacement prism 

 

You can search out crystal shops for a suitable size 

Also search eBay for quartz prism as they are natural prisms - even if you need to buy a quartz necklace prism and cannibalise it 

 

as per photo below

I haven't seen those Belgian Franks in a very long time. 5 Frank equals 0.125 euro. 

1 French Franc was worth 6 Belgian Frank's. 1 Dutch Gulden was 20 Belgian Franks. And these were just our neighboring countries.... Complicated!

I was 12 when I bought this album. It was the first ever classical album I bought in my life. I had learned about the 1812 Ouverture in the first year of highschool, and I was so impressed by it that I took the bus to the 'big city' to buy the record. Later, I became equally impressed, or even more, by the B-side: Serenade for String Orchestra.

This was in the early 1980s, when they would put 'DIGITAL' on the sleeve to sell more albums, and when record shops still put stickers in silver or gold on the records they sold, with their address and telephone number... Klup, Bilbo, Musicmania: all the record shops I frequented are all long gone by now...
