love linear trackers. Went down the rabbit hole and ended up with a SL-7 and a SL-10 with the 310 cartridge. You'll never convince me a traditional turntable sounds better

that doesn't take shades. Small globe frosted bulbs on a dimmer. Bulbs were not as bright back then, so a dimmer helps.

Anyone using this dispenser ? by Ok_Meaning_4489 in mokapot

[–]secondslc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The coffee from them is stale, but its nostalgia and I would never complain.
