The Dire Straights-Walk of life: A vinyl record played on a vinatge tube stereo

"Walk Of Life" by "The Dire Straights" on the album "Brothers In Arms". The Stereo is a newly restored Grundig Majestic console SO 132 made in 1959. Unfortunately, the video Quality is very poor so it dosen't capture the rich bass and crystal clear sound that this vintage vacuum tube stereo produces. If you would like to request a song please write a comment!

isn't it bad to play a stereo LP with a Mono turn table, isn't the tone arm heavier?

This is a stereo turntable, it has a Sonotone 8T cartridge.

Smashing! I have the compact disc version of Brothers in Arms, but they edited the lengths of the songs on the LP.

It was the first time a CD ever exceeded an LP when this album was released

Groove on stereo record is cut in two planes - horizontal and vertical while stylus in mono turntable can only move in horizontal plane often deformating or even destroying the vertical part.
