Just joined SFBA.social after 9 months on home.social which is closing. Happy to be here!

I don’t have much luck in competitions, so imagine my surprise when Frank Landry announced winners of his #Channel33RPM YouTube show competition and I was one of the lucky ones! As the tagline says, the channel is about “#vinyl , gear and more” and presents some really good reviews of new and old records, #turntables, speakers and other #audio gear, plus analysis of the record market, mostly in Canada and US. If you haven’t seen any of Frank’s videos, you should definitely check them out.

If you’re into #turntables or #vinyl, check out my review of U-Turn Audio’s excellent Orbit Theory over at Digital Trends. https://www.digitaltrends.com/home-theater/u-turn-orbit-theory-review/

Since I've gotten back into DJ'ing, I've re-discovered inspirations from the past. It's even better when those inspirations are still kicking it and are as good as ever.

DJ Rob Swift is one of those people. His love for the music and the turntables is so infectious.

The latest iFi Zen Air Phono preamp is, in my opinion, a “must have” for every Audio-Technica entry-level AT-LP60 series turntable owners, who wants to improve the soundstage of their gear without spending too much money.

Okay, that's my toots for today.

Gonna leave you with a nice picture.

I remember #turntables & #LPs. I even owned some but my brother claimed them when I left home for uni & I never claimed them back as I was happy with mp3.

I think the LP with the prism design was #pinkfloyd Yup - found this article on it:

Apologies for boosting scum like #medium on a community site like #mastodon. I try not to let perfectionism derail my life & just live with the small compromises.

@carl_klitscher That looks like an old school one! My housemate has a couple, but both much newer types.
