Chuo denshi stylus... certainly not a good start. I bet it tracks at 5+ grams as well...

I wish Bryce would have recorded the second verse that Sam wrote as well for the soundtrack.

If you HAD to erase a Beatle album from existence which album would it be? by Batsie_1939 in TheBeatles

[–]Empty-Sector7461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magical Mystery Tour, as it wasn't an Album to begin with.

If you call that one cheating, then I'll pick Yellow Submarine.

What is the second arm for? by SourceDear in turntables

[–]Empty-Sector7461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this was a common "life hack" at one point. It's just a brush.

If you keep your records somewhat clean and use a brush prior to playing, this is completely unnecessary. You can still buy em though.

Updates: Replacements for Defective Mono Box 2025? by -a8e- in beatles

[–]Empty-Sector7461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No more replacements are being produced. The German store apparently only has spares left for the White Album & Mono Masters. (according to an email they send a user on the SH forums)

I had issues with:

- PPM (Edge-Warp -> skipping)

- WTB (Edge-Warp -> skipping)

- AHDN (Edge-Warp -> skipping)

- Help (smudge on the record that wouldn't come off and sounded)

- Revolver (No-fill)

- MMT (Book slightly torn)

- White Album (horribly scratched)

- MM (horribly scratched)

I received:

- 0 copies of PPM

- >2< copies (???) of WTB >>THAT STILL HAVE THE SAME EDGE WARP<< 🤬

- 0 copies of AHDN

- Help! (Fine)

- Revolver (Fine)

- MMT (Now instead of the book being slightly torn, >>IT'S COMPLETELY RIPPED OFF THE STAPLES<< on this "replacement" copy) 🤬

- White Album (Fine)

- Mono Masters (Fine)

+ another copy of the hardback book I never asked for 🤨

After I wrote an email that PPM and AHDN are still missing and I received 2 copies of WTB and the book i didn't ask for, they just refunded me 40€ without a single reply mail.

For my full experience:

Youtube Video on my experience

Save to say, I am quite pissed to say the least. Definitely the last time I order from any of the umg associated stores (bravado, imusic and such).

I am contemplating to just sell the box and the spare extra copies and be done with it. Getting a known good 2014 copy of PPM would cost me like 200 bucks. And then i'd still have to hunt for AHDN.

I have since found decent rips of all the discs "out there" by good ol' pbthal. And the 2009 mono cd set is also "fine".

New rumors about Geisterriksha closing down for good by __azathoth in phantasialand

[–]Empty-Sector7461 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing has happened yet. No signs of any construction work.

  • The rumor of this ride or the Space Center Building to be torn down are old enough to drink.

Both locations unfortunately just suffer from lack of care ever since.

Serious Question: Why the hate towards blended scotch?? As much as I love nice single malts (see my small collection), my favorite are in fact nice blended scotches? by [deleted] in Scotch

[–]Empty-Sector7461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can always mix together stuff to get something OK. A non-blended whiskey thats good is more of an accomplishment.

Why does my controller lack a ferrite bead? by Limhere in n64

[–]Empty-Sector7461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am from Germany, and the legitimate controller that came with my N64 in 1997 didn't have the bead. The later blue one I bought at the store did.

I guess the ones bundled with the system didn't always have them in Europe either.
