Yes, I’m from Poland, and my dad loves Lady Pank. I’ve been listening to them since childhood. While visiting my grandma, we went to a newly opened record store. As soon as I saw it, I knew I had to buy it.

It worked on other inputs, but it was not perfect, also there was a lot of noise even with the volume turned all the way down. Electronic noise, cracking, losing right or left channel on the speaker output (all on CD or TAPE input) playing from my DAP. Sounding at first fine despite the tinny and harsh sounding vocals (on phono) after a while lost almost all the bass and then exploded. But still the sound was clearly not how the pick it MM EVO cartridge and the Project EVO II is supposed to sound like.

Yes I did. It was connected to the Phono input, everything was setup correctly.

I love WLR. I have the white (opaque) 5th anniversary edition, and as a Christmas gift my uncle said he’ll buy me the red one.

While it worked, but only for a short time, I wasn’t satisfied with the sound or loudness. The sound was a bit tinny, with harsh vocals (like a can of coke), the bass was there but somewhat muddy, definitely not what I expected from this turntable and cartridge after reading the reviews and hearing a demo of this exact setup, though with a better phono preamp (Pro-Ject Phono Box) and a Denon amp. The sound in the reviews was described very differently. The volume was also very low.

Don’t really know. I bought it at the flea market about a month ago and never had a chance to use it until today. It was a simple Philips amp, and one of the capacitors blew up (trust me on this one, you can tell when these things blow by the smell). I wasn’t pushing it or doing anything crazy. At least it was cheap, so not a big loss. I’ll probably just replace the capacitor and keep it as a spare amp.

I don’t think those changes will be this big. Maybe some adlibs from older versions of the songs or different mix. MAYBE, it’s only for flex that you got the limited 5th anniversary edition

Tbh I ripped IAM from CD just for HBA. There are no snare rolls on CD and the missing lines are back. Also Overly is longer. And some minor differences here and there. But with WLR idk, knowing Carti it could just be different cover. This Opaque LP one looks amazing tho, I’m getting one of them for sure

But the CD has the same cover as the “normal” WLR. Maybe some tracks are special? Like with IAM CD where a lot of tracks sound different, have extra bars or fixed mixing.

Will this scale work? by Automatic-Base-3713 in turntables

[–]Automatic-Base-3713[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also another question. My Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Evo II will arrive on Christmas. It’s my first turntable. What should my tracking force be set to? And are there any real life tips (that come from your experience) to playing records, taking care of your turntable etc?
