I don't want to steal your turntable, but I might have to.

Thanks mate. Seems you know your stuff.
I've had this record player since the '80s and, believe me it’s in mint conditions, fabric new.It has several very interesting features:
1) I can adjust the height of the arm while it is playing.
2) It comes with another S-shaped arm, which you can change in a matter of seconds.
I wouldn't change it for anything in the world. Ohh, it's completely manual.
Really great setup! SL 1025? Or one of the SPs?
. You won, but…not my turntable 
That looks to be about $1,000,000 worh of vinyl in 2025 terms!

Is that a Topping D70 Pro OCTO DAC under the ultra?
I can only agree
As I said above, it was the era when even so-called commercial brands made high-end products without compromise.
The only goal for those products was absolute quality.
That little toy turntable weighs 16.1 kg.
I know we're not talking about potatoes or apples, but does 16kg of weight have any substance?
Hi @DazST
Maybe $1,000,000 is a bit much, but it certainly has tremendous value.
Just think that in the 80s a record shop offered to buy my entire collection for 3,000,000 lire. Believe me 3,000,000 lire at the time was much more than €1,500 today. For €1.500, I wouldn't let you even come close to my collection. The records you see are all original first copies, no reissues or second editions, and they are all very shiny and free of scratches, fingerprints, or other imperfections.You could use any of my discs to mirror yourself while you shave.
Hi @HoosierHiFi
Sorry for the delay. You're close, but it's not the Octo. It's the D70 Pro Sabre. I preferred it to the Octo, even though it cost more, because it seems to sound better. More detail and a better soundstage.
Just out of curiosity, I've now set my sights on this Fiio Warmer, which hasn't arrived in Europe yet, rumored to be early December.
I'm really intrigued because it's a pure DAC, without amplification or preamplification, and...it's a tube r2r!!
A tube DAC is something I've never seen before. Considering the price, it's around €350-370 € I want to give it a try, especially since Fiio makes excellent products. Another thing is that the Meters are analog, that is, real Meters and not digital ones represented on a screen.
I have the K11 r2r and even though it costs half the price of the D70 I would say it has nothing to envy to the D70 Pro Sabre. The K11 is the DAC that I currently use the most.

Orange = right channel
Black = left channel
Maybe it’s an ocd thing of mine or I’m just thick

I wouldn't have thought of that before, but would have continued to think that the left is left and the right is right.

My music collection. Only 58 grams
Strictly speaking, it's just a backup drive. The actual drive is installed in the NAS.
