A simplified 1202 I think. Lovely decks. Most b and o stuff is.
The fully auto feature is really useful for folk like me who have difficulties now.
I always was going to get a banger but it never happened..
Maybe one day. If for nothing else, the style. A friend used to have a full set when I was an apprentice to him.. Git lol

Our own beo man will likely have 10 of them stashed. Took me a day to fit a cart to a head shell.. Poor fingers and eyesight. Can't stand and trying to do it in a seat isn't easy.
Why I'm going digital tbh. I get music at touch of a mouse or phone screen.
Not so tactile of course but needs must and it sounds very good. Especially with my new speakers

I'm 36 and have no complaints about my manual dexterity, recently I was asked to fit a cartridge and it took me 3 bloody hours because the included round nuts were just supremely annoying and the mounting hardware I usually use was not compatible (the heads of the screws were too large and failed to clear the cartridge body). That's why I love cartridges with threaded bodies and headshells with threaded holes!Originally Posted by struth

But the former will not work with the latter.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

Yes. Threaded headshells are useful for cartridges with no threaded holes, like Denons for example.But the former will not work with the latter.

I have never really understood how a head shell with threaded holes is good, does it not restrict getting the stylus in the exact position, or is the head shell designed for specific cartridges and arm use only? Or I suppose moving the arm to get position correct.
Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.
Analog Inputs: Pro-Ject Signature 10 TT & arm, Benz Micro LP-S, Michel Cusis MC, Goldring 2500 and Ortofon Rondo Blue cartridges, Hitachi FT5500 mk2 Tuner
Digital:- Marantz SA-KI Pearl CD player, RaspberryPi/HifiBerry Digi+ Pro, Buffalo NAS Drive
Amplification:- AudioValve Sunilda phono stage, Krell KSP-7B pre-amp, Krell KSA-80 power amp
Output: Wilson Benesch Vector speakers, KLH Ultimate One Headphones
Cables: Tellurium Q Ultra Black II RCA & Chord Epic 2 RCA, various speaker leads, & links
I think I am nearing audio nirvana, but don’t tell anyone.

Youll be ok with that B&O then you just slip the cartridge on & thats that, no wires, no lining up with protractors etc.. Theses statically balanced arms track like mad, Te arms are designed for perfect wall to wall tarcking.. I once saw a video of someone playing an LP with a B&O TT sat on its side..Our own beo man will likely have 10 of them stashed

No - no 1202s or 1203s at the moment, Just a Beogram 2000 (the 1980s type), a Beogram 3000 (Acoustical motor unit), Beogram 4002, Beogram 5000 and a Beogram 8002.Our own beo man will likely have 10 of them stashed
As an aside, the above Beogram 2000 is my favourite. Looks great, takes the later MMCx series cartridges and doesn't need any adjustment for standard speed or size - just hit Play and off it goes!
