Post A Photograph Of Your Turntable - Page 9

That is a beautiful deck Steve. Very nice. We both have the same cartridge but you have the much nicer TT.

Thank you.  The cartridge is fantastic.  I am sure it sound just as great on your table.

 

Since I picked the table up off AudioGon, I got a used Benz Ruby with the table.  Constantly had the table cutting out.  thought it was more in the arm and sent the arm back to VPI and they rewired it but it didn't solve the issue.  I decided to upgrade to the LPS and haven't looked back.  I really enjoy this cartridge.

 

 

 

Those were a couple of fantastic looking turntables.

Is that a Bang & Olufsen Beogram on the bottom shelf? 

 

Gyrodecks are so mesmerizing to watch spin.

1) J.A.Mitchell GyroDec, SME 309 tonearm w/ Mark Levinson Carnegie One phono cartridge,

That last deck looks familiar!

 

Yeah, it was in A Clockwork Orange, IMO the transcriptors is a cheap POS, the MARK II (available now!) is $4000 but worth every penny as it is twice the TT as the MK1. The TNT MK1 is better then both, Modular, Upgradeable, I can bring that beast upto an HRX if I wanted, but all the newer components are silver and I'm trying to keep it black. It has no arm currently, I'm going for a Trans-Fi T3 but it's $1,200 and I'm collecting portable gear ATM so it'll be awhile.

The Transcriptor isn't cheap junk - they're nicely made. However, they're not the best deck.

Totally agree about the Gyrodec, though. It was entrancing. Then I had to go and upgrade mine to an Orbe. The Orbe platter is better, but sometimes I'm tempted to sell it and put the Gyrodec platter back on. The spinning counterweights certainly look better, and it sounds plenty good.

The new one's aren't, the old ones (like I have) are.

A couple Im using here in the PC audio rig  are the Revox B 790 and the Mitsubishi DP-EC 20

 

Subscribed. Remind me to take some photos of my own turntable to post here in a few days! :)

Okay it's not my turntable and it probably is not Marilyn's but I thought I'd post it anyway. That really looks like she's playing wax.
