Re: what professionals use to play records

I've recently been watching the series Mad Men and some of the characters have a 1960s version of this.

Re: Who knows what about thermal wrapping on houses?

Agree , the 1985 home will be affected differently to the older ones. I'd still proceed with caution as these houses wouldn't have been designed to be wrapped in this way and it can take a period of time to see any negative affects. When I had the black mould in the 1870s house, the affects of fitti...

Re: Who knows what about thermal wrapping on houses?

I'm not an expert or work in this particular area but I have some experience with older properties abroad from the 1870's.

Re: Record player suggestions

I use a Thorens TD150 mk2. They are a simple but easily upgraded design too. Mine has an audio technica at1005mk2 tonearm fitted which adds much more detail and oomph.

Add a good phono stage, moving coil cartridge, sut and you wont look back.

Re: Interesting shops throughout Europe

On holidays recently and drove over to Marbella today to have a look around. I called into technogold - very nice equipment on display. Massive sansui 22000 and some other choice vintage stuff. Hard to see the size of those in these pics but they are absolutely huge. He has a small stock of records...

It also had separate speakers either side. The tv quality was great and when it was turned off or on ,the picture a...
