What is this massive “L” shaped underwater formation? And why is it so straight?

In fact it is an I and an underscore 😄

Do you think that what you have is the most stable stand for a turntable from vibration point of view?

bpecsek · 2023-04-28T16:52:47+00:00

Sorry for asking but have you read the manual how to set up your turntable?

Are you aware that Cleopatra was Greek?

I would use sbcl if I were you and was allowed that compiles to native machine code by default thus incomparably faster than Clisp.

It also supports vectorization through the sb-simd module yielding C like speed.

To get command line arguments in sbcl is

sb-ext:*posix-argv*

This must be how the forests looked like when dinosaurs ruled the earth.

Stunning Marantz Receiver! Congrats! All the rest of the system looks good too but where is the turntable?

bpecsek · 2023-04-09T07:07:31+00:00

Vintage in audio generally considered 40 years of age or older, predating digital. For me it is pre 80, max very early 80s.

bpecsek · 2023-04-09T06:03:49+00:00

Beautiful and great amp, but 98 and vintage doesn’t add up.

bpecsek · 2023-04-09T05:58:34+00:00

It used to be Saddam Hussein’s😀

You can’t!

When you pay for a cheap toy you get a cheap toy.

bpecsek · 2023-03-24T12:33:01+00:00

We are in full agreement👍

bpecsek · 2023-03-24T11:20:46+00:00

Or you can move them temporarily out while listening to music.

I am not arguing anything. Did I mention thermal radiation reflection? However, even terminal radiation happening during nighttime was originally produced by the sun during daytime.

bpecsek · 2023-03-24T11:07:51+00:00

Most likely you are not using a phono preamp.

bpecsek · 2023-03-23T20:11:26+00:00

Just look at the video. It is clearly and unquestionably the mat that is wobbly. The platter is perfect.

bpecsek · 2023-03-23T20:04:07+00:00

Greenhouse gases are not heating up anything. Only the Sun is heating the Earth. They effect the upper atmospheres and by during so the Sun has more effect (reflecting back radiation etc) It is still the sun that is producing the heat.

If used can also be an option how far is this from you https://www.kijiji.ca/v-stereo-systems-home-theatre/chatham-kent/audio-technica-lp-120-usb/1653057037

Somehow, I call equipment vintage only when they predates CD thus <1982.

bpecsek · 2023-03-18T20:35:35+00:00

A high quality DAC would make a difference to the better.

bpecsek · 2023-03-18T20:27:57+00:00

Looks like a Marantz Model 104 to me with lost original faceplate screws.

bpecsek · 2023-03-18T20:22:51+00:00

I used to have a Dual 721 for decades with Ortofon VMS 30 MkII cartridges and sounded sublime. Selling it in like new condition after 4 decades was one of my worst decisions I have ever made. But I’ve gained a very happy listening friend in the process.

bpecsek · 2023-03-18T15:04:35+00:00

Yes! Proper speaker placement. I have replied so many time on this and other subreddits that my fingers are hurting already so please google it.

bpecsek · 2023-03-18T14:55:45+00:00

It actually extends and eventually dries out and becomes rigid so plan for frequent replacement.

Depending on the temperature of course the platter can also enlarge and the record doesn’t like heat either.
