Oh, BTW, you want a half reasonable turntable, but are short on space? Audio-Technica at Crutchfield has your back: www.crutchfield.com/p_057SB727YL...

Sunday morning music. Don’t have a Denon turntable, nor a moving cartridge, but had to try the phono input on the PMA-300V. This Sony PS-LX550 with a linear tracking arm has an Audio Technica AT85EP T4P MM with a weak right channel ☹️ That’s what balance controls correct, still sounds quite good 🎷🎤🎶

Happy amp, happy stereo. Checked the capacitors and voltage rails. Adjusted the bias. Had to clean all the contacts, was especially tricky on the protection relay. Missing is the MD deck that I had to get from Japan, doesn’t really fit. Maybe I should get a period-correct (late 1980s) tuner… nah! 😜

In the late 1980s Al Reinert made what is considered by many to be the best documentary on NASA’s Apollo flights to the moon. Not many documentaries make it into the Criterion Collection. Reinert’s work (and he was rather humble about it) did. www.imdb.com/title/tt0097...

“Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind had escaped attention from the Trump admin. for months, in part because of strong support from Governor Glenn Youngkin, Republican of VA. But its fate became uncertain after Abigail Spanberger, a moderate Democrat, won the race in November to succeed Mr. Youngkin.”

Your help really makes a difference. It inspires people to go further, to try harder, to persevere. Most importantly it tells the folks in peril that they are not alone and that their sacrifice is worth it.

Help! It’s not going back together! 😅 Something definitely went wrong with the mechanism, got stuck on playback, but there was no tape in it. A couple of nylon parts are broken so the hopes are slim. And of course the steel chassis edges are razor-sharp, wonder if blood works well as a lubricant 🤪

Poland marks December 13 as a day of remembrance for victims of communist repression after martial law in 1981, but the message resonates across the entire region. Every country the Red Army once occupied still remembers the terror that came with Soviet rule. 🧵 1/12
