    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Joke aside, mine and Marco are very similar in terms of modifications.
    Obvious differences are tonearm and cartridge.
    Marcos a Denon man and I'm a big Ortofon fan boy
    I'm in no doubt his sounds fab cause mine does too

    How much has it cost yourself and Marco to mod those 1210's, Robbie? I am so intrigued as to how they would perform side by side next to this SP10.

    I'll have you know it was next to nothing to do mine, I added it all up for The Boss and she was pleasantly surprised it was only a few quid

    I reckon a lot of people would be intrigued, myself included.

    I'll have a calculate of what I've spent if I can remember it all. I think Marco bought his arm new and has likely spent more. He might reveal what his has cost to get to where it's at.

    Either way, for me in terms of what I now have sonically, it's money well spent all things considered, relativity regards high end turntables and so on
