Re: Record player suggestions

Thanks so much for the comprehensive reply. Have followed you guidance, but honestly I think there may be an issue with the phono stage. When plugging in the red channel, the sound is barely audible.

Re: Record player suggestions

Hi. It came fitted with a Rega Elys 2.

Re: Record player suggestions

Thanks for the suggestions. Forgot about the phono stage. Not sure if my streamer pre/amp has one, will check.

Record player suggestions

I’m thinking of investing in a record player, though I have little to no experience bar an all in one system I used approx 20 years ago. The kids are big enough to know not to touch now, and I have roughly 200 albums I’d like to bring down from the attic and dust off. Ideally looking for something p...

HiFi "unit"

Hi, We're moving house and I'd like to get a HiFi "unit" rather than a rack per se. I'm thinking of something along the lines of this: https://krudfurniture.co.uk/collections/record-player-stands/products/krud-k49-hemlock. However there doesn't appear to be anywhere within Ireland doing th...

Re: Naim 250DR

Hi Tony, I use this amp, and like it very much. Not sure about where is best to sell, there is a naim buy and sell Facebook page. Have you tried to list it there?
Wonder what prompts the sale, and what do you plan to move onto?

Thanks,

Ricky
