July 31, 200818 yr comment_145204 After months of having what seemed like every conceivable roadblock, I officially am rocking vinyl again. Fuck yeah! A Pro-Ject RM-5 with hopelessly cool carbon fiber tonearm, Denon DL-103, and Monolithic PS-1 w/ HC-1 PSU. It's dead sexy, so getting to finally listen to all the records I've bought in the last few months is that much better! Here are some more pics: You can't really see it at all but the anti-skating weight just hangs on a little string, it's really cool. I'll try to get a better pic sometime. Obligatory action shot: Fuck yeah!!! So I'm pretty happy that something I've bought actually works for once! I'm relaxing to a 2 dollar Herbie Mann LP and the clicks and pops just add to the ambiance. I'll clean it better later, right now I'm just happy it plays! All pics taken by my brother, as I suck at photography and he does not. Report
July 31, 200818 yr comment_145205 uh it might be only me but I can't see any pics EDIT: my comp sucks, they work now Report
July 31, 200818 yr comment_145238 great looking tt and very nice pics. is your denon a straight 103 or is it the "r" version? assume the ps-1 has enough gain... congrats! be forewarned vinyl is highly addictive and may cause digital anxiety. Report
July 31, 200818 yr comment_145261 grats chuck! i'm loving the DL-103 on that gorgeous table. I'm long admired the mid to upper line pro-jects. Report
July 31, 200818 yr comment_145424 Nice one! I've been spinning lots of vinyl lately too Reminds me I need to hop on this DD man train sooner rather than later. Report
August 1, 200818 yr Author comment_145703 Did the clamp come with the 'table? Yup. great looking tt and very nice pics. is your denon a straight 103 or is it the "r" version? assume the ps-1 has enough gain... It's the regular version. The PS-1 seems to have enough gain, but maybe I'll add an MC transformer one day. Report
August 1, 200818 yr Author comment_145853 So how you liking the Kefs? They're pretty great, although I have yet to get the setup totally perfect. Sometimes I do feel like a need a little more low bass, so I may add a sub eventually, but other than that I love em. Report
August 1, 200818 yr comment_145860 the 103 is a great and legendary cart. you might experiment with the (washer plate) weight that came with the cart since heavier is most always better with that one. i've tried both, with and without, and prefer the weight with my 110. Report
