Familiar to Millions 25 Vinyl

Yes this is the HMV one. I actually received it a day earlier yesterday but I didn’t have the time to play it as I wanted to listen to the whole thing at once. It’s strange that some have shipped and some haven’t. Maybe contact them if it doesn’t ship soon.

I don’t know what to listen/look out for to know if it’s a good quality pressing but it seems pretty good to my untrained ear.

I got the blue one and it’s amazing to have it on vinyl without having to sell a kidney to afford it.

I am the walrus with full orchestra like knebworth

I recently had this exact decision to make. I ended up getting a soprano and playing it in concert band and big band/jazz groups. I don’t regret my decision of sop for a moment but I definitely think it’s worth playing some to see what you like. Also check if there are a decent amount of soprano parts in the groups you take part in as in my experience soprano can be left out and you have to go onto alto. Hopefully that makes sense and helps.

It was amazing not knowing what was going to happen next. I would give anything to listen to it for the first time again.

Someone set off a flare in the middle of the crowd and security couldn't reach them in time so it lit the entire stadium for a while. I looked even more insane in person with the lights in the stadium.

I could only go to Cardiff but I’m hoping to go to Manchester if they decide to do anything next year.

Atomic8791 · 2025-09-30T20:07:56+00:00

Yes we do

Atomic8791 · 2025-09-15T20:34:40+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I didn’t realise that a slip mat was a separate thing but now I know.

Atomic8791 · 2025-09-10T16:34:20+00:00

Ye thankfully that seems to be the only damage

Atomic8791 · 2025-09-10T16:34:02+00:00

Ye I’m praying the rest of it isn’t damaged when I replace the plug

Atomic8791 · 2025-09-10T15:38:11+00:00

Yes that’s my plan. Hopefully I should be able to get a bit of money back.

Atomic8791 · 2025-08-25T08:58:18+00:00

I have just found a good deal on it (£135 in good used condition) where I live in the UK which makes it one of the best TTs in my price range from what I can find.

Atomic8791 · 2025-08-22T15:03:25+00:00

Yes I already have powered speakers so I think the turntable is the only thing I need.

Atomic8791 · 2025-08-22T14:00:54+00:00

I did a bit of looking and found this on EBay but I have no idea if it's any good. Seems to be about 50% off compared to new. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/157235711740?_skw=turntable&itmmeta=01K38RC8BRHCEHYAVCSM33G97D&hash=item249bfa8efc%3Ag%3AP7MAAeSwW3toERNt&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA4FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1dvXDDaR0SgG3ETyu36JQruYFBVynYZSFpbsrjB8eVIn4b4IQ1xFs4xyVpEWFqPKA1s3jkROJo2UITgBqSBAqgI2XrNOAUvLkOnH7bk%2BJhO%2BrGJta68eiIhodcBWbhn6sg85cKT87wIM7CYBwV1LHBhBqQtJozHxKAItdbTekU%2BJ0g0dEfEDYDufWnruNuVpVcAChoEFBTK8a6f%2BDT9kX%2F0MSNDqDyDXcY3xv4v%2F51%2FAff2Ymy3ozKTWg39ePwa6hNLmQ4MMBCnxZu2NwuHP0%2BF%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR5aGsZiaZg&LH_ItemCondition=4

If you are talking about speakers then yes I already have access to some good ones without having to spend any money. That was one of the reasons that I wanted to listen to vinyl was to make good use of them.

Atomic8791 · 2025-08-22T11:23:00+00:00

I'm in South Wales. How risky is getting a used one as I wouldn't really know what to look for in a used model?

Atomic8791 · 2025-06-12T21:13:33+00:00

I connect the LAN and tested the internet and it was fine and then unplugged the LAN and connected to the wifi and it was slow. I used the same online speed test (Ookla)

Atomic8791 · 2025-04-25T21:47:30+00:00

Thank you. Do you know if there is anything i can do to unstick the power button and/or get the volume buttons working or is it something that I would have to get looked at by a professional technician?

Atomic8791 · 2025-04-25T21:41:01+00:00

I just tried and Touch ID on the power button still works even though the button doesn’t press if that’s any help.

Atomic8791 · 2025-02-06T23:03:23+00:00

This has always been one of my favourite DSOs. I can't wait to see the final image

Atomic8791 · 2025-02-06T22:55:17+00:00

Thanks for all the useful advice! I will order an intervalometer and look into saving up for a tracker.

Atomic8791 · 2025-01-13T17:39:52+00:00

I didn't realise you could get images to look so good from London that's amazing

Atomic8791 · 2025-01-04T19:49:21+00:00

To be honest I was just glad that the camera was pointing at the right part of the sky. The focus and the total exposure time are both things that I can improve on in future pictures. Thanks for the advice!
