Dont expect acknowledgement of your turntable macvisual. You have strayed into Techie territory...:lol:
Well, Dave, let's see a nice a nice close-up of yours! ;)
Marco.
Not a chance i've learned my lesson...:lol:
Why not? As far as I remember, no-one had anything to say last time other than positive remarks about your wee fruitbox :eyebrows:
Marco.
I'm not that fussed guys, the lp12 sits packed away not in present use as I've went down the digital stream route.
Love to try an older original Roksan Xerxes at some stage in my system, nice, I like them!
it's a FR-S3 headshell
Marco pushed me for this, so here're the first ones before checking my photo libraries at home.. ;)

Nice one, Mika - freakin' gorgeous! :stalks: :drool: :drool:
If I were the judge, you'd definitely be in with a chance of winning.
Marco.
Yes, lovely B&W photography.
I really like this pic! Gorgeous!Quote:

That's not dust - that's what is known in this house as NIOSF -'non-indelible organic speckle finish'Quote:

Beautiful deck and photos, what is the cart?:)
Zu bodied denon 103 ?
Indeed - and one of the best 103s that there is.......
Marco.

This is such a good photo Mika, why don't you give your deck a good dust down and take a new photo? That way you stand a very good chance of winning the competition.
Of course from now on Marco will insist that all photos appearing in the Gallery are in back and white! ;)
Regards
The competiton closed if you check back BUT I HAVE JUST RE-OPENED IT AS THAT DECK IS FERKIN AWESOME
Where do I send my own 103 to make it look like that??????????????
That specific 103 is the Zu version they have produced during the last few years with the 103R also. However don't know if those are still available or do they perform similar mods if requested. One opinion of the cartridge -> http://www.stereophile.com/phonocart...7zu/index.html
No need to reopen the competition for me but as Mike Patton sings in one of the bands hits "I'm easy" here it goes from a little different angle. Technically not so brilliant shot but the natural light has its challenges when there is not tripod around.. ;)

Pillock! :lolsign:
Now that the word "dust" has crept into this thread there is only one thing to do, shameless plug for the new Blue Horizon Probrush...
There's an unmistakable class about the 401 (& 301) and those pics capture that.
£20?!! I can hear Marco's 'SPPV Warning Bell' clanging from here! :lol:Quote:

Hmmm looks exactly like the generic brush that is sold under a number of brands. Bought mine in HMV for less than five quid a few years ago.Quote:

Ha - looks like Aggie's getting rubbered-up to give me something else entirely! Phnaarr, Phnaarr... :bum:

Guys,
Bearing (no pun intended) in mind that the guy who designed most of the blue horizon gear is the same person behind the RDC cones and a german audiophile genius IMHO I don't think he would waste his time re-badging an HMV record brush do you?
Yes it is mine, I've got a few lamps dotted around the house althpgh with 5 cats I have to be careful where I place them. Can post a bigger pic if you're interested.Quote:

No thanks prefer a bigger TT TBH...:lolsign:
A couple more, will take some more when I get some time...

I take it we can post up piccies of 'previously owned' turntables too? If so...

Hey, Richard, I recognise that cartridge! :eyebrows:
Top quality pics, as usual, dude... I feel certain someone who owns a Garrard is gonna win the comp ;)
Marco.
Why not if it works well. It takes a lot less time than designing one from scratch and getting the tooling for the injection moulding made.Quote:

Do you want to pay £19.95 for it, as it is, or £99.95, with some bespoke injection moulding fitted, just so it looks 'different'?? ;)
Marco.
Some lovely gear lads!
Nice pics Gromit! Especially the middle one looks nice..
Oh dear at the moment it seems first prize will have to be posted to Finland...:eek:
The wife told me last week I had to sell either the Techie or the 401, as the Techie was sited on my stand and the 401 was not I chose the latter to get rid of although I have purposely not done anything about it as the missus will forget about it after a while she always does, anyway looking at the marvellous 401 shots I simply have to get mine fettled up properly don't I? That purple mdf plinth I have has to go!
