AndreG. Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Do Your students know about their teacher being a "Cool Teach" listening to his vinyl while doing corrections at home? Thanks for sharing Your impressions! Seems like I into hoarding TTs now.... Got a second Dual today, it was here in Berlin and for 45€ i just couldn't say no. Bummer the DIN/ Cinch adapter I need is taking so long to arrive, so no spinning for me yet. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 I got a new belt in the mail for my Linn the other day. My ttdude had them back ordered and said he'd send it. The old one lasted 40 years sooooooo... Don't think I'll have to buy another one! 😂 😂 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MicroMara Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 To make a long story short, the sonic difference with the same pickups between the Micro Seiki DQX 500 and the DQX 1000 is the same as a mid-range Mercedes Benz to the absolute luxury class. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MicroMara Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 F Y I ...... The perfect 3-dimensional Tonearm Installation tool called " The Protracor " , thought this information makes sense .

mustang_flht Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Hi, Speaking of turntable, I had a beautiful English Linn Sondek LP12, then in 1981 I replaced it with a large turntable designed by a master of the vinyl world: Pierre Lurné (for example he made the T3 and T5 arms for Goldmund, and the famous Audioméca turntables and Lurné arms). I ran this MINIMUM Turntable for 25 years, but today, this turntable and in a cupboard in my garage, one day I would have to reassemble it and restart it after a nice restoration. This turntable was one of the first heavy turntables (around 120lb) and if you are observant you will see that many turntables from the 90s, 2000s, 2010s and 2020s are inspired by this icon. Unfortunately I don't have a photo of my MINIMUM turntable running and there is no photo on the net. I contacted Vinylengine to give them a scan of this 1980 article from the Audiophile magazine to include it in their database: the article is visible under Pierre Lurné / Audioméca Look there and tell me if you can read this article from MINIMUM http://6bm8.lab.free.fr/Documentations/Revues/Audiophile/1977-1988/18/MINIMUM/MINIMUM.html 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
