    maybe. It switches on, then after a couple of seconds turns itself off.

    I'm going to buy a record player...................

    my amp didn't survive the house move. It might be fixable but I have no idea about these things I'm gonna get a new one. Also looking to replace my speakers with bookshelf speakers. Currently have floor standing ones that are BIG (which I'll probably give away). this is the one I have - Denon...

    That is beautiful, if a bit gimmicky. I watched without sound. Was the £274 mentioned, the price of the thing? I want one, but kind of hard to justify at that price when you can get a very decent turntable for less.

    I have the Rega RP1 also. Lately when I turn it on there's a squealing nose as it starts turning. The noise disappears after a couple of seconds but I hope that doesn't mean the beginning of the end. Suppose, at least, it would be the cheapest part of the setup to replace.

    looks amazing. Spotless too. I remember my Rega was that that clean, barely.

    nah turntables are gonna be way cheaper. I think my turntable was about 250. I got a deal on the pre-amp (Denon pma-2000-iv-r). It's great.

    are you looking to skimp a bit? I paid around 550 for mine. It's great.

    For my secondary school first year woodwork project I made a yoke for holding tapes. Still use it to this day. Was the only use I got from my secondary schooling.

    whatcha get? I've a rega rp1 turntable a denon something pre-amp and big fuck-off speakers by someone fancy. Got a cheapo tuner from richer sounds in belfast but it's perfect and plugged in an old Sony CD player. It takes up a fair whack of space but I love it.

    that looks kind of sweet. How much did it set you back?

    define 'crap'? All crackly and lots of hissing? Or are they coming through really low? I had that a while back with my setup. I changed the cables and its grand now.

    not sure how it works tbh I was at the Cate le Bon gig a couple of months ago and bought a copy of her latest album on vinyl. When I brought it home and played it, side A had a 10,000 Maniacs album recorded on it (side B was Cate le Bon). I sent a tweet to both Cate le Bon and to her label...

    I reckon I'll give it a miss. They claim each album is 'specially pressed'. That means someone has a yoke at home for making vinyls and they record it off a CD. Pricks

    Interesting. I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand it'd be great getting something unexpected. On the other, you could just spend the money on something you like. I'm conflicted. Have you signed up for it?

    ended up getting the full reel in Maplins. 20 squids for a lot of it so that wasn't too bad. have it all sorted now. I'll get a tuner next year when my finances eventually settle again. All I'll need then is to work on getting a good taste in music.

    according to the website its sold by the metre. I'll pop in one of the days for a look. Seems theres lots of options if you want cable with the jacks/connectors already attached, but fuck all if you with it without those.
