With me still a few LPs were not digitized. So it was worth it not really more, but still specially to provide a disk player. Perhaps 100 LPs total camped in the cellar (to himself). Years ago, my last record player, a good Thorens, broke down, and I had not taken care of replacement, because most already existed as a CD. But maybe I wanted my sons but show how music (and Paady) made 30 years ago again. So close in on the Omnitronic.
Now he is three months in addition to a good Onkyo Receivers - a really cool black double. When my sons Omni is also good - can not believe that so much good music can get out of such a "primitive mechanics". Omni comes only with appropriate mood to use. Hang up and dusting fall almost to ordinances. And my Omni - I'm almost in love with him (oh dear!), Thrilled definitely. Especially for him, I'm submerged in the basement, have great Venyl Treasures rediscovered.
What was important for my purchase decision:
1. The player must have a built-in preamp. This stuff with humming (probably technically inferior) extra equipment I did not want to join in again.
2. Very important - weight and stability - because Omni can with its almost 12 kg, and his black suction feet (where he sits once it sits, as he!) Can see.
3. Fully closing plexiglass hood - it falls anyway always dust.
4. It may not seem like a cheap plastic toy, so please do not "bargain" from Kaffeehöker or from the supermarket, etc .. On the other hand, one also designer pieces offered. But to me the unique functionality was more important than extraterrestrial look.
5. Of course, the price played a role. In "UHU" portions should in principle be suspicious, but please no 500 Euro. The few more oscillations I higher form the device anyway from!
So, all in all, with super-fast delivery from Amazon:
a really cool part
PS Surely you can still get out of the magnet system reserves. Will soon be time the system from my old Thorens install (it was a still fairly new Shure system), but for everyday use enough the supplied entirely.
