Anybody still playing vinyl.

If you are spinning what turntable are you using? I have multiple TT’s. My newest addition is a Technic’s SL10.

Make sure you use a specific ground wire for yours.

I purchased a replacement off Amazon.

We kept finding records in the house, in boxes from storage and from a friend. Getting ready for doomsday so at least we will have great music! So far so good! Not high tech but versus zero music it is just fine. It doesn’t require a receiver but we put our Pioneer under it just for the feels! 😁🤣💗

My son (32M) has an assortment of vinyl. I seem to remember him having a Technics.

He has old acoustic country, older rock of limited dispersal. Not a collector, per se, he picks what interests him in second hand shops, garage sales, and the like.

Best regards,

These were a 50th anniversary tribute to the Beatles 1968 album "The Beatles",
aka The White Album. An all white finish, including tonearm and cartridge.

I also have '70s MCS (JC Penny) changer set up for playing 45s.
