Very nice.

At one point in time, I really wanted this turntable.

Thanks for sharing.

@Interests2009 -- glad you liked it!

[Pedro4k]

this sounds like shit!!! Do you think it's the TT, your cartridge or my PC speakers??

+ my crap video taken with an older digital camera.

Hi, this is just a silly short video to show someone that my turntable was working. I was not trying to demonstrate anything about the audio quality -- if I were, I'd use a much higher quality audio file and capture the audio separately. Here you have the hum from the canon point and shoot camera mike.

thanks for looking, Stephanie

not sure what planet your from, but the very limiting 44100khz samppling rate that you mention is the exact reason why compact discs suck.

[MrOzzyIommi]

compact discs sucks for many many reasons, VINYL FTW!!!!!!!!

[bcdhifi]

@thetubeisgr8 You are confusing sampling rates with hearing range. range

and resolution are two different things.

@MITCHWILD--It has been years since I wanted one of these. Now, I am hoping for a vpi (or laser turntable) in the future. For the time being, Technics has to do :-)

Technics is not audiophile but is very good for what it is. I had even debated in a Music Hall.

@Interests2009 Me too, i got an Axis, not the same at all.

I have a LP-12 with Naim XS. At moderate volume the subsonics are making my woofers hub and then that feeds back into Ittok arm, which is making the cartridge misstrack. Since subsonic filters in integrated amps seem to be a thing of the past any suggestion of how I can avoid this?

La verdad es que casi escucho musica dese mis y otros vinilos.

Todavía no pude hacer digitales algunas grabaciones.

Deverían quedarse así.

Genial el post y las turnatables siempre son perfectas . Con personalidad

@KAISERKRAUT In the era of vinyls and hi end turntables, I was an avid consumer of those expansive gears. Vinyls was good indeed because it was the best we knew at that time. But when I discovered the CD, I quickly gave up the vinyls. Of course, there is a lot of poorly mastered CDs, like there was a lot of badly recorded and pressed LPs. But there are gems in LPs as well as in CDs. Ultimately, the CD is a better audio support, and I did not even speak yet about the SACD or DVD-Audio!

@stephgaynor--Sure thing. It's amazing how they still make this model and have parts for it, but I am too broke for something like this right now :-(
