Of course, that would be good. Lots to show you and to hear.Think I'll have to arrange coming over on my own Dave and show you, we'd like to see them sometime this decade!
Sorry DSJR Dave, have to keep teasing you though!
I've been waiiting nearly two years for DSJR to grace me with his prescence again. Even the promise of a beer and sausage sandwich hasn't persuaded him...

Is that the single one with SME 3009 imp or the double deck ?Yeh Dave especially that Michell 'Prisma'
When I get a lid, the mirror blue Electronic Reference with Transcriptor arm looks a treat.
I'd also like to do some porn on my new TD124 to be fitted on a multi-ply plinth with FR-64S and a range of cartridges from the good ol' days.

Soz, dude, I was getting mixed up with Ikeda!Dude that 101b is a new old stock item = vintage, orsonic still making them??
is there some new Orsonic started i don't know about?
The Orsonics are nice headshells, but I prefer ones which enclose cartridges almost completely and hide all the wires and fixings.... The Orsonic is too 'skeletal' for me.
The Rek-o-Kut I posted earlier is my ultimate, and the old bakelite SPUs are also another of my favs, although purely on a 'sexy retro looks' basis
Awesome!!!(observe the proper 'man-sized' finger-lift, something which seems to have died a death today) And you even get a cartridge with it, too!

Me too. My 103 positively sings inside my FR 'S/5' on the Jelco:
Total quality! The FR headshell really improves the performance of the Jelco. And see how much neater headshells look with no ugly slots or nuts/bolts on top (with alignment being achieved from underneath via a simple sliding plate system)? Have you seen how much FR headshells sell for now, though.......

Nice one, dude. You'll have to learn to post pics though - the feeling will be very liberating!Marco,

Have you got a digital camera? If so, the procedure is a piece of piss
