What audio gear have you gained lately?

Freebase Dali · 12-14-2011, 10:20 PM

A headphone stand?
I honestly didn't even know that existed. I've always just used a tack.

I guess that wouldn't work for people in earthquake zones though. Their headphones would totally fall...

It has arrived.
And boy is it good.

For Batty; It's an internally dampened RB250 arm with an upgraded weight that can be screwed firmly to the arm and to it's preferred position.
The cable coming from the arm is Klotz cable with Neutrik Pro RCA plugs.
It sounds very lively, but very sophisticated. It's really very good.

I'd give it 9.5/10. I can see a small speck of dirt below where the needle is touching the record.

That's the powerswitch mate

Salami · 12-17-2011, 02:28 PM

Ahem....

Look closely.

That could knock hundreds off it's value.

s_k · 12-17-2011, 02:37 PM

Lol, waddayaknow

It's got fingermarks all over it from adjusting the arm.
Didn't clean it. Don't really care

That's OK, mate!

I didn't really want to buy it!

I think I'm happy letting you enjoy it first for a while.

It's going to take a while to find something better

Tomorrow I shall show you the disgraceful state of our old one....

At least it works. It is older than time, though.

[EDIT:] Actually, I'll do it now.

It's filthy, it's battered and it's older than the Queen, it's my dad's record player! He really needs to clean it up.

Hahaha, you could scare me away with equipment like that
But at least you do have a record player ;D
