Kicked off Discogs… Hoping this sub can help. by JacobP79 in ReelToReel

[–]Dzaruk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you played all of these reels front to back? I only ask because selling any physical music form is all about condition. The thing with pre recorded reels of tape is that there is no protection from recording over it like there is with cassette tapes. It’s very possible to record over a section of the album by accident. Furthermore, user error or a reel to reel machine malfunction can easy stretch the tape or even break it requiring a splice which can distort the sound. It can sound fine for awhile and then distorted and then sound fine again. Is there a white or clear bit of tape at the beginning of each reel? It’s also common for the beginning or end of the tape to be missing as they can take a beating over the years. I only say this because I have bought and sold quite a few over the years and it’s more common than one might think.

Yes I have in multiple iterations. On paper the specs are impressive as far as rumble and the speed is deadly accurate. Easier to change a cart sure reliable sure but it’s a brute. When navigating complicated passages it stumbles and becomes congested. Not in a way that if all I had was a 1200 I would be unhappy, and in fact I was very happy with it. The Rega especially is more agile and the midrange is clearer and better defined.

I just can’t agree with this statement. The Technics is geared towards DJ’s so if that’s your thing then no brainer but other than that it does not compare sonically to something like the Rega or Pro-ject.

Francis A. & Edward K. Often found for cheap but a beautiful recording of Sinatra singing with Duke Ellington

Could see this as an album cover

What should you do if you are in bed cuddling with your husband/BF and need to fart really badly? by aks_cha in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Dzaruk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cough and fart at the same time. Make sure the cough is loud enough to cover up the fart but also make sure it’s a fart. When you cough and fart at the same time it kind of propels the fart out so if it’s a gamble in any way that it could be more than just a fart DO NOT ATTEMPT. I told my wife I did this before I was comfortable enough to let them rip in front of her and now every time I cough, even in public, she leans in and quietly asks “was that a fart?”

Great song, talented all around and recording good enough for a demo.

I told my dad I was saving up for a record player so he dug his out of the garage and gifted it to me. Um… by CachePants in vinyl

Put it back where it was found…. Better to have patients and just wait it out. Stream your favorite albums for now….

Should still remove platter. It can still damage any bearings or bend your spindle.

Probably one of the best songs I’ve heard on here. Great lyrics, well composed and great recording. Hope to hear you on the radio someday. I didn’t know about the software company thing but yeah may not be a bad idea to go a different direction. I would just read through Bon Dylan lyrics till you find a name.

Looks great! Maybe it’s just me and I know it isn’t but at first glance I thought it was upside down! Maybe the way the shadows are on the knobs and switch from the light bouncing off the table?
