#turnTable

Bought a record clamp for the #turntable; never used one before. Curious to see if it will make a difference in the sound.

Over the sea to #Skye on the MV Glenachulish, the world’s last manually-operated #turntable #ferry.

Its unique design allows it to navigate the challenging docking conditions without much #infrastructure, allowing up to six cars to be transported on the deck, which the crew ** rotate by hand ** when it reaches its slipway.

(There is a short video in the link.)

The vessel was saved in 2007 when it was bought by the local community after its long-term skipper retired.

AUDIOPHILE MAN - HiFi REVIEW
A £3,990 turntable just outperformed my £21,000 reference deck.
The Soulines tt9 + KiVi M3 is smooth, powerful and emotionally gripping.
Is it hype — or a genuine giant killer?

Felt like texturing something I didn't make for practice. Basically digital miniature painting.

The model is this mimic by Yasashii Kyojin Studio on Thingiverse.

The brick floor is this one from polyhaven.

This took me probably about 4 or 5 hours of work. A surprising amount of work went into getting the boundaries sharp and in the right place. I almost feel like it might have been less work to model and sculpt it from scratch and keep the materials separated by object. I might have to do a mimic of my own soon.

The turntable video is rendered in #Eevee and the still is rendered in #Cycles. Unfortuntately, I forgot to turn on screen-space reflections for Eevee.

A still image render of a D&D mimic. It is a chest on a worn brick floor in front of a black void. The chest is open wide, and erupting from the inside is a long purple and blue tongue, surrounded by bulbous gums and long fangs.

Finished restoring my 'new' Dual CS-505-3 #turntable, oiled and greased everything tuned the speed, balanced the tonearm and a new stylus and it is playing perfectly! <3

*Zwarte Woef*: Good, now that you are done tinkering on the turntable, how about we actually >listen< to it and cuddle? I already picked out the record and have a cuddle deficiency from your hyperfocus. <3

Restored Dual CS-505-3 turntable setup in my record corner with a cabinet filled with vinyl records, a phono ADC and headphone amp and AKG K712 pro headphones visible and Zwarte Woef the black wolf plushie next to it.

Ich mag es ja, wenn sich ein paar Klassiker auf meinem Drehteller tummeln.
Und Joe Cocker hat da so einige im Portfolio!
Seine Bühnenauftritte waren etwas besonderes, sicher auch aufgrund seiner linkischen Bewegungen am Mikro, aber natürlich auch, weil man ihm durchaus ansah, was er so alles mit seinem Körper angestellt hatte. Das ultimative Wiedererkennungsmerkmal ist aber sicher bis heute seine erstaunliche Stimme, die sich für mich immer noch anhört wie ein nahendes Gewitter.
Sei es With a little help of my friends, Summer in the City, You are so beautiful oder Up where we belong – es sind Lieder, für die man noch einen Augenblick im Auto sitzen bleibt, das klingelnde Telefon abwürgt und die Kopfhörer noch ein bisschen länger trägt.
Heute dreht sich auf dem Teller The Life of a Man, und die Scheibe bietet einen schönen audiophilen Blick auf das, was Joe Cocker so bekannt und beliebt machte: Seine einzigartige Stimme.

A nice little micro turnable that unfortunately wouldn't sing for me. This style where the idler wheel directly spins against the record almost never works well (the wheel is sometimes directly under the stylus!) but it's pretty ambitious for one of this size to also have a radio built-in. And the carrying case is neat too!

So you bought a turntable.

Before you upgrade cartridges or chase rare pressings, start with the basics: a good brush, the right slipmat, proper cleaning, and a plan for your shelves.

Vinyl rewards intention.

Here’s our beginner guide to doing it right:

I spent time with the Victrola Stream Onyx (VPT-2000-BLK-ATE) to see what happens when vinyl meets Sonos.

It’s not a purist deck, but that’s not the point. Thoughts on build quality, signal path tradeoffs, cartridge performance, and where it truly excels.

I do not have a lot of luck with my physical media, my #turntable stopped spinning correctly again, the drive seems weak and if suddenly slowed down during playback.

I had fixed it before that it had completely stopped moving after a while of no use and taken apart the entire motor, might need to go at it again but it never really recovered from last time. I am not sure if I just damaged it in my attempts or something. :/
