Andrews_melb Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I guess this is the right section to post in for this, its analogue related. Finally got my TT up and running again with a new wall mount hifi unit. Keeping it out of reach from the kids. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goatboy Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Deluxe edition of the new Pixies album ‘Beneath the Eyrie’. Contains studio album, an LP of demo tracks, CD, booklet and a 7” single. Impressed with the quality of this boxset. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardiiiii Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Decided to upgrade my phono preamp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRSDarwin Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 A new (old) TT from SNA member. Rega Planar 2 with Linn arm and retrofitted platter and mat. Excellent transaction and very satisfied purchaser. I’ve ordered some new cartridges and have some more setup work to do, but a happy camper from the get-go! Oh, and the phonostage is handcrafted from SNA member and the Bewitch tube integrated amplifier is from SNA member (as is a MF A3.5 CDP which you can’t see and interconnects). 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawnwes Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 (edited) Well the Dynavector DRT XV-1s arrived yesterday and I quickly did a rough setup with my basic paper protractor that I used with my previous cartridge. But I think the fancy spread deserves better treatment than that so rather than paying someone a couple of hundred clams to set it up for me I decided to DIY and ordered the Dr Feickert protractor, KAB Speedstrobe & Analogmagik software to do it up right. Even w/o a proper setup I can say this cartridge is really something special. I've got it tracking at 2 grams on the AM 6 & the Valab set at 100 ohms & 60db gain. Once the setup gear gets here I'll start to tweak it to the max. Edited September 20, 2019 by shawnwes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevoz Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) Finally got myself a copy of the comeback album.....AC/DC's "The Razor's Edge" 2009 or 2018 reissue (not sure which but both are George Marino remasters), German pressing (Optimal Media).....at a decent price. .....and minutes later, won this auction on ebay (with one bid......and quite cheap) for a 'like new' US 1st pressing of AC/DC's "For Those About To Rock, We Salute You".......sweet!

Unfortunately, according to the seller of the above, the item "was damaged by the courier" and was returned to them, necessitating a full refund to me as they are now "out of stock".....sounds fishy to me!

Uncle Seth Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Yesterday I bought an XLR -> RCA adaptor (2 actually) Simple, yeah? Apparently not. The female to female adaptor was required but not available at Jaycar. First up, I was supplied with a a male XLR fitting which had to be exchanged. Imagine my disappointment at needing to buy (extra cost as well as inconvenience) two extra RCA (F-> F) adaptors. At least my VRDS-10 transport now connects to the DEQ2496 and into the pre-amp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
