I always like the look of the RP9
A Wurlitzer is on my bucket purchase list!
Exciting day today - 1, it’s a day off, 2, I’m heading to Leicester to see Peter at Cymbiosis for a karousel bearing upgrade on my LP12 and auditioning Lingo 4 and Radikal Power Supplies - update and pics to follow
It was a late 50th birthday gift - has been fun finding original issue 45s to fill it with. Kids are completely mesmerized by this clunky, loud and MOVING machine… a far cry from the digital experience. Regularly find them dancing around the jukebox to the likes of the Beatles, Beach Boys & James Brown… certainly brings a sense of fun to our evenings
When the light’s right I just sit and look at it for a while before deciding if I want to play something
Simon Price SimPlinth in Indian Rosewood expertly fitted by Peter Swain
Beautiful.
Beautiful …
I can fully understand that. I’m a sucker for beautifully figured & highly polished wood.
Fell in love with the plinth for a Garrard 301 shown in the video (4th post down) under this thread over on ‘Padded Cell’.
I do like that plinth !!!
dear god, that rw plinth!
I have walnut. I’ll put my GEORGE HARRISON RW telecaster beside my lp12 and fantasize.
Fantastic TT
Looks like that rega arm has the Michell counter weight?
An under appreciated TT . Had one, I could have switched to a TechnoArm and an Ortofon Black or Bronze .
Easy to be wise after the event
It’s not just the counterweight that is Michell, the whole tonearm is a Michell, the TecnoArm A, which is based on a Rega arm that ME has improved and refined.
Yes, it really is an underrated turntable, with the TecnoArm and the new pickup it plays really, really well and can easily be compared to more expensive turntables.
Very nice! What phono stage are you using? (I had a 10x5 for many years and felt, unsurprisingly, that it mated very well with the Dynavector P75 phono.)
Thanks! Right now I have the simplest Rega, the Fono mini, but I will borrow a Dynavector P75 mk4 from my dealer next weekend and according to him it should fit very well with the 10x5 just like you say!
Try a Graham Slee - they will lend you one.
A whole load better than a Rega Fono
