Help with a christmas present Turntable and speakers….?
Hey.
I am hoping to buy my girlfriend a turntable, speakers etc for playing her vinyls on. Literally just for her to listen to her music on, i was going to get her one of them ones with built in speakers but they just don’t look as good (or probably don’t sound as good as well)…
So [...]
Does the "TECHNICS SL1210 MK5 TURNTABLE" come with phono leads?
Well any leads for that matter. I assume it comes with a power lead but what about linking it to my amp? (PIONEER A307R AMPLIFIER). I am asking this as I have just ordered it but want to know if i should buy some leads.
Daniel K is wrong. The phono cables and ground wire on [...]
Marantz CDR310 CD Recorder – How do you record in stereo?
I just got a Marantz CDR310 CD Recorder today. I followed the instruction for pre-setting the record function to stereo – and the display says "stereo" – but when I burn my CD and play it back on my stereo CD player – it only comes out of one speaker. Any thoughts on [...]
When I try play a record, my turntable lifts the playing arm and puts it back in the cradle?
IT IS A PRETTY NEW record player, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE I HAVE TO PRESS THE PLAY BUTTON A THOUSAND TIMES BEFORE THE ARM STAYS DOWN AND PLAYS THE RECORD.

my turntable/record player goes too fast on the slowest setting. is there a way to slow it down?
I don’t know what brand/model turntable you have but my Technics SL-1700(direct drive) has two seperate speed calibration screws underneath the platter(33&45 r.p.m.). Yours may be similiar or it may have to be opened to adjust platter speed. Calibrating should best be left to a professional. Keep in mind that a turntable requires proper lubrication [...]
Record player needle?
Would it scratch or damage a record if i use a regular needle or pin for my record player?
YES! The needle on a record player is a very special one and not like a sewing needle. Those record players need to be fitted for the correct needle. Check the Mfgr. name [...]
What kind of record player should I buy?
I bought some records recently and I have been looking for a record player, but I am not really sure what kind to get. I know that I want one that has the older style amp so that it sounds better. I am wondering if there are new record players out now that [...]
How old is the oldest phonograph record that you have and what is the song & who is the artist?

I have RCA Victor, Edison, Varsity along with MGM, Columbia
I have one of John Phllip Sousa too
You can buy turntables again I bought a new one a [...]

Is it worth buying?
I just bought a really cool one at the fleamarket, got it home, found out something was wrong with the speaker. You can know everything about record players and still get jipped. Though [...]
