RCA linear tracking turntable with infrared track detection
This 1987 RCA Dimensia MTT230 linear tracking turntable uses an infrared LED and detector on the tonearm to scan the record and find the tracks, allowing it to automatically skip back and forth between the tracks just like a CD player. The track detection works pretty well, even on dirty LPs. Similar models were made [...]
Pearl Jam Vinyl Record on my home made turntable – DIY – Record Player
This is a video of my newly completed home made turntable. I am totally new to making turntables in fact I never really knew how they worked until a couple of months back. I made one before that was really just for practise. This is my final. You can see next to it the first [...]

Goldring Lenco GL75 Record Player Plays My Sweet Lord (Live)
I have today unearthed a compilation CD I made for some friends in about 2003 entitled, “Mark’s Favourite Vinyl”. I used my old Goldring Lenco GL-75 turntable/Goldring 1012GX Cart, which I bought second hand. It was an absolute beauty, and it is a shame I sold it a few years ago to go [...]
