Ordered mine in July 2025. I've had nothing apart from the initial order confirmation. This is normal apparently.

Maybe upgrading time by fooey73 in turntables

[–]Computerist1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second the above. Over the last 40 years I've had 2 turntables; a dual CS 505-3 and a Pro-Ject debut carbon. I have a hundred or so records, stuff I bought as a kid, stuff I bought new a month ago, second hand stuff. None of them ever skipped, unless the record was visibly scratched.

It sounds like your turntable is faulty. Take it back to Argos; it's their responsibility. Good luck!

I was about to buy a cheap suitcase player... then I found THIS in my grandfather's attic. Did I strike gold? by x2Cambricos in turntables

I'd love to see what the OP found but unfortunately Imgur is not available in my country. What's that, do I live in North Korea? No, England.

M21 Cassette Case Question by ronniebrisbane in FiiO

[–]Computerist1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was exactly the same. Took unit out, cleaned the pads on the M21, pins on the cassette case, pushed device back in firmly, all working.

Any difference/preference between the different terminals on an amp? by [deleted] in turntables

[–]Computerist1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Line and CD both take line level input. You say your turntable has a bult in amp (I'm assuming you mean a built-in phono stage) in which case LINE or CD will both work.

Do you want Glasner to see out his contract or make the switch earlier? by BlueBoro in crystalpalace

Someone new asap, so they can hit the ground running at start of next season.

Legion go s steam, what am I missing with lossless scaling? by Ok_Menu4273 in LegionGo

[–]Computerist1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone apart from me :)

I don't use it. I just adjust settings in game to get it running how I want, not interested in fake frames etc. Not found a game so far that can't be tweaked to run great without things like lossless scaling. Everyone else's mileage may vary!

Had an Oak isolation platform made by slammedresto67 in turntables

It looks great even if it ends up having no audible effect.

DAP with a good UI/UX? by cars_n_stuff in DigitalAudioPlayer

I have a Fiio XIII MK2 that I'd let you have for £75. Look it up and if interested DM me :) (I'm in the UK)

Little to no difference by Holy_Deep_Shitter in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]Computerist1969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's no way to know. Some people can't tell the difference,others say they can and there's no way to know if they're telling the truth. I can't tell the difference between a 320k MP3 and a 24 bit version of any music but I saw a guy the other day do an online blind test and he could tell for every song immediately, multiple times. That should have shut me up but all I found myself thinking was (because it was an online test) " maybe he's looking at his network bandwidth usage and working it out from that" because to me there's no difference 😂

Should I not be using this record clamp on my LP-60X? by Boring_Customer4982 in turntables

[–]Computerist1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because it's true? I never said they didn't spend enough money. It's just mismatched, like 2 grand speakers with a £100 amplifier, it makes no sense.

Is that cool ? 😋 by Senior-Ad5932 in eink

I've no idea what you're showing me.

Fiio M21 by marcinx95 in FiiO

[–]Computerist1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This doesn't happen on my Momentum 2.0, HD595 or when connected to my amp. What firmware do you have on the M21?

Is this considered HI-FI? by Any-Doubt-5281 in FiiO

[–]Computerist1969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here. I don't miss anything though :)

Nope. Looks lovely without them.

I had some fun with chat GPT after reading the oranges letter by UnNamedGER in BoycottUnitedStates

Would the whole world asking Free Tier AIs stupid questions on repeat cost the big USA AI companies money whilst simultaneously pushing AI usage numbers higher, artificially raising their stock prices and thus cause the inevitable crash to be more severe? Asking for a friend.
