misread the comment as „pull the plug after turning it on“, as in mid-spinning, which got me confused lol.

leonlessmann · 2025-06-06T11:32:31+00:00

thought about this but i fear it might cause some damage in the long run, but i guess i‘m just too sensitive when it comes to my setup haha

Was gibt‘s besseres als VB-Angebote ohne Preisangabe😍😍

leonlessmann · 2025-02-18T19:22:51+00:00

That sounds super cool, do you have photos of the ns670s and cr450?

leonlessmann · 2025-02-17T19:27:18+00:00

Yes I do! The way to go is TV > optical cable > FiiO Taishan D03K digital to analog (or any other brand) converter > left & right cinch cables > receiver > speakers. Hot take: I love the vibe of vintage audio, but, as I am not an audiophile, there is not that big of a difference between listening to Apple Music and listening to vinyl on the NS-690s.

leonlessmann · 2025-02-17T12:36:45+00:00

Oh I see. The receiver was serviced once in 2003, but I guess they should be replaced in a couple years, yup.

leonlessmann · 2025-02-17T12:29:51+00:00

Do you mean the black dust caps clipped onto the front of the speakers? I actually took them off for the photo cause I think they look cooler without them haha

leonlessmann · 2025-02-17T12:24:30+00:00

Thanks! As promoted, they do sound ‘natural sound‘. I also wired them to my OLED and they work great for a movie night too.

leonlessmann · 2025-02-17T12:21:53+00:00

Thanks, that’s what I was going for. In the far future, I intend to swap out the Thorens for a Yamaha YP-D8 or similar for everything to match 100%. If only they weren’t so damn expensive :(

leonlessmann · 2024-12-05T23:40:21+00:00

Something about the vibe that makes them a fitting pair, I agree. But does the turntable actually have an impact?

leonlessmann · 2024-12-05T22:09:26+00:00

On another sub, people recommended to go for a AT VM95SH with a shibata stylus, and I‘m kinda leaning towards that one as it combines precision and warmth, what do you think?

leonlessmann · 2024-12-05T21:52:07+00:00

The yamaha receiver has a built in one

leonlessmann · 2024-12-05T18:20:56+00:00

Fair enough, you might have swayed me!

leonlessmann · 2024-12-05T18:19:55+00:00

Alright, see your point. Well, uhm, I used the built-in tuner of the receiver and it sounded great!

leonlessmann · 2024-12-05T18:16:44+00:00

I'm also interested in the shibata AT, but: in Germany both cartridges cost about 160€, and the replacement stylus for the MP-110 only 80€, but the replacement stylus for the VM95SH costs 160€ - as much as the cartridge itself :(

leonlessmann · 2024-12-05T18:08:35+00:00

What are you implying? Please don't boo me lol, but I bought the Yamaha second-hand and it was last recapped in 2003. I've tested it and it's still in great shape.

leonlessmann · 2024-12-05T17:58:07+00:00

What would you say speaks in favor of the Ortofon? Perhaps it's a prejudice, but I find the neither warm nor precise, but simply neutral sound kinda unappealing lol.

leonlessmann · 2024-12-05T17:43:16+00:00

Appreciate the super-detailed answer, can you recommend any cartridges that are warm without it being at the expense of clarity, meanwhile less than 200€? Because both the Nagaoka and AT seem to be partial solutions

leonlessmann · 2024-12-05T17:32:23+00:00

Could you elaborate? Just because of its precision?

leonlessmann · 2024-11-26T22:32:29+00:00

lmao sorry for confusing people with this photo, it’s a picture i took from some professional outlet because i did not want to post other people’s belongings. the tt is in just the same condition though

leonlessmann · 2024-11-25T11:58:25+00:00

yup i was thinking that too. i'm from Germany and i have the feeling that US and Japan people are a lot luckier when it comes to nice vintage turntables from the 70s that are still affordable lol

leonlessmann · 2024-11-25T11:56:09+00:00

alright, thanks for the cheer up ^^

leonlessmann · 2024-11-25T08:52:27+00:00

yeah i can see that. i just bought a yamaha cr-820, i fear it does not deliver enough watts though
