• ... Well, to celebrate the newly re installed system, our two years old just destroyed my MC cartridge... Argh! My fault for leaving the room without strapping the cover onto the turntable as I normally do...

  • Oh no! I had the fear (hard). So much that I fucked the turntable off for a linear tracker.

    I am constantly shitting it at the moment with the new speakers. They are immaculate and the grilles are fragile.

    I am happy buying well worn gear - I can be a bit of a knobfingers. If it was Ted, I’m not sure how I’d react.

  • Know the feeling. My daughter tore off the entire tone arm when she was 18 months or so.

  • Ouch.

    ncsb:

    I broke the cartridge on my parents turntable when I was 6 and had figured out how to play our records ("All Aboard" mostly). I said nothing but it was discovered and I got shouted at.

    Skip ahead 36 years... I have to stand on a stool to reach my turntables on a high shelf. Inconvenient but as yet untouched by my nearly 7yo.

    Unintended benefit is they're the perfect height to rest our pico-pix on to make a cheapo home cinema setup.
