Problems problems!!

A long time ago, I digitised all my records because I was moving into a cupboard and thought there wouldn't be any room. Couldn't bear to part with them when the time came so squeezed them in.

This morning, a rather nice Origin Live modded RB250 turned up on the doorstep and within about 15 seconds had been swapped with the bog standard RB300 that has resided in my Origin Live based TT for the last fifteen years.

Sat and listened to the usual test records. Bugger.

I listen quite regularly to the Mac in the system as semi background music or non serious listening. But I listen enough to now find some of the lacks annoying. I might have to rerecord the entire collection.

Stupid upgraditus.

Alternatively, don't digitise your records...

What happened to "I'm only in it for the music. All this equipment stuff is for fetishists" ? Imagine what a proper record player is like :eek:

Lets put it this way, if you were offered a class piece of equipment without having to lay out any pennies for it, you, of course, would refuse:ner:

What like a Pip 2 you mean? Fair cop. Should pick it up soon, which means I can get brave and tackle the leds on the PIP 1 (which have been silent as the night for months now. If it ain't broke...?):scratch:
