How Cheap Genetic Testing Complicates Cancer Screening For Us All by @ferenstein

I am currently listening to records using a The Little Oak turntable with a Linn Basik arm / Rega R100 phono cartridge is it. I am thinking of changing it to another records player, and have read on Internet that the Technics SL1200 / SL1210 Mk2 is a good deck to have. A feature that I am looking for is adjustable feet so level the deck up, as it is sitting on a audio equipment unit with no facility for changing the height, and I think the deck is on a bit of a slope, as it has trouble staying in the groove on 45 rpm records near the end. So, other than Crack Converters / E-Bay, how does one go about finding one that hasn't had beer poured into it in a nightclub or dropped on its head? Or is there something else with adjusting feet and easy switching from 33 to 45 out there for around ?200 - ?250? DS

Hi. I have read the posting graphs info so I hope my jpegs are correct. I have also included my .mdat file. I am trying to get a room/home studio set up for mixing music. I may look to start recording in the room but for now I would like to concentrate on creating a better mixing environment. Room info: Fairly large: approx 5M X 4M X 4M. It is carpeted. There are two large bay windows at the top of the room in front of which my speakers are positioned symmetrically facing down the room. It is furnished with studio equipment around the top. The center of the room is open and spacious with a large leather sofa against one side facing a large marble mantelpiece on the other. The bottom left of the room has a large loft-bed raised two meters with clothing etc hanging underneath and the door is situated at the bottom right. The two walls above the sofa and mantelpiece cover a large surface area which is very open and bare. I run a Windows 7 PC system with audio via a Focusrite liquid saffire 56 which feeds a pair of KRK VXT8s. I bought the UMIK-1 and have setup REW with it's calibration file correctly (as far as i can tell). I made the measurement running the sweep through both monitors with the mic pointing upwards situated in the mixing position. I thought I would post this info now to get some initial feedback. Thanks very much for your time. Attachments Attached Files May 19 16_19_02.mdat (2.43 MB)
