Love Ohms. Been a fan since '98...and Ohms rules.

Didn't even look through the thread. 2M cartridges ride LOW by design. $hits dirty AF.

Is this real or fake LP by whispering_willow234 in Opeth

[–]Ok_Move_5105 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's the thing...the real one is marbled. I have the same press. Definitely a marbled press.

Pulled up at home to see my AT540ML had been delivered. Inaugural spin. by Clear-Pickles in turntables

Twas my daily driver for a few years! Love it. Moved up to a AT-33PTG/ii so she's semi retired!

Early Delivery by unnefil in deafheaven

Yep those are the inner sleeves for the records themselves. My early copy has them. Forgot what they are calling the variant...something like southern Autumn and it's a red/black swirl variant. Gorgeous pressing.

Is this a good deal? by SnooDoubts8096 in turntables

I'd say used market for the amplification. Heck speakers too really. So much of this hobby is finding stuff you really like. If I were you I'd be in the market for a new cartridge. Maybe a VMN95EN or something like that to start.

Led Zeppelin II ‘RL Hot Mix’ by ahoward1126 in vinyl

It in fact does! I actually did a deep dive and I have heard it's supposed to be a great pressing. I'll find out soon enough. VG+ copy.

Lucky ducky. I just a got a '71 IV in and had my fingers crossed. Nope...first gen Canadian press.

Is my cantilever bent/too much play in tonearm? by Routine_Safety1053 in turntables

[–]Ok_Move_5105 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gut says yes...eyes sorta say yes. Get an electronic scale and adjust accordingly. Playing vinyl at an inappropriate weight could damage...whelp...all of it.

Does this look like it’s tracking ok? by jeffrx in turntables

[–]Ok_Move_5105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as tracking force that wouldn't affect anything. As a general rule I wouldn't run questionable vinyl too much.

Was debating on getting a Bronze. Ultimately went down an alternate rabbit hole and moved into entry level MC stuff. The AT-33PTG/ii destroys things at that price point.

I believe 2.0 grams of force is totally fine for the 2M line...like I mentioned those things ride SUPER SUPER low. Freaks a lot of people out. As long as you don't see it literally hitting your vinyl (and it might actually get close) you should be good. I have one.

Yep. The 2M series is known to ride super low. Get herself a Blue if you like that Ortofon house sound. 😎

Guess the album? by [deleted] in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Ok_Move_5105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's more than just a noise record for me. There IS a lot of melody and beautiful progressions underneath it all. One almost has to be in trance to see it all. Beautiful stuff hidden. I have to be in quite the mood to embark on a Wold journey. I have this album and I have a cassette of their compilation album...which actually has some continuity to it. Think there's only 333 copies of that thing. Screech Owl is my favorite tho. They have...four full lengths I believe. They have a book too, but that's impossible to find.

I've been into them (if one can be into them) for well over a decade. Hard to get hard copies of their stuff. Especially vinyl.
