Not quite purple but I'm sure Prince wouldn't mind his Grammy award album in Moulin Rouge color. 1984 ! What was I doing then?

It's a record size detector lamp. This is a microprocessor controlled direct drive fully automatic turntable.

I had a much earlier DD Denon TT back in the late '80s. It had a tall, wide reddish wood base. A very handsome device, and pretty good sounding for DD (all the cheap TTs also used DD but cheaped out on implementation & didn't sound so good).

I've always had a soft spot for certain Japanese high-end brands, including Denon, Nakamichi, and Luxman (the pricier/bigger Onkyo stuff is pretty wonderful, too).

Vintage gear is a totally different hobby. It can consumed you.

I recently upgraded my headphone amp and what a fantastic upgrade it is. So it was a great time to capture the current state of my headphone system.

That’s a great vinyl station. So easy to access the LPs.

Thanks, I would highly recommend it to any vinyl fans as it is a great way to keep things organized yet easy access. It's the Unison record stand by Symbol Audio.

Nothing special, but it sure does put a big smile on my face.

I wanted to like this amp, but mine had channel imbalance….

I’ve had no such issue, and I do quite like this combo, but now that you’ve put it in my head …

But the non vintage gear hobby isn't consuming? When did this happen!?

But the non vintage gear hobby isn't consuming? When did this happen!?

The non vintage gear hobby is now on fire, an inferno gone out of control. No fire extinguisher can put it out now. Waiting for a tsunami wave to come. But you know what? Living in a volcano is an experience you NEED to try.

ps - don't take my advice literally please !

It's a black album indeed. I had to put the sleeve there otherwise you'll only see blackness. However when Enter the Sandman comes on, you just have to close your eyes.

Don't your headphones get dusty? I find our apartment super dusty even in the winter with the doors and windows closed.

I keep a sheet over them when I'm not using my system. I use them too often for them to accumulate a lot of dust. The occasional dusting the wife does plus a hepa filter helps out greatly.
