We have established that, with my legendarily poor impulse control, very bad things could happen 🤡. What PSU were you using before the Radikal?

That looks very smart. Upgradeable decks are a blessing and a curse to be honest. Vertere got in touch asking if I wanted to 'try' the Imperium PSU with MG-1 (it's designed for the bigger decks but works on mine too). I declined because I'll only do something stupid 🥴. What a knob though...

Well, I've broken out the serious test tracks...

Can confirm; Just arrived. More orderly thoughts to follow.

Gutted; Godspeed Mr Lanegan;

It's big beat o'clock kids. Jacknife Lee; Muy Rico. Still love big beat. No higher purpose, no message, just music to have a good time to.

Proper Musical Fidelity. The little XA-50 mono power amps used to come in those cylindrical chassis too and they sounded unreasonably good.

It's a perfect fit for Rega arms without spacer. It's hard to think of a non Rega cart that fits as well as that one does tbh.

Skalpel; Highlight Imagine a Polish Cinematic Orchestra and you're sort of the way there. It's very good though and a cracking pressing.

Daft Punk; Homework Currently, the specific type of Sunday hungover where I can't decide if a beer would be a very good or a very bad idea.

Death From Above 1979; Outrage is Now

Cinematic Orchestra; Live at the Royal Albert Hall; I had actually forgotten I own this. When I collected my brother to travel to my parents for Christmas, he returned six records he'd had for so long, I was still married when he took them off me. It's nice to have it back.

Can I give a tip from over a decade of review work? It's not the weight, it's the hold. Just make sure you can get a simple and repeatable hold on them and you're golden. And yes, standmounts are a perfectly viable option; I actually prefer them at this point. Keep an eye on what these arrive in...

Does this help at all? Ironically, I found the EN had a trickier job of justifying itself than the E or ML but they're all blinding affordable carts.

Reddit contains both some of the cleverest and the very dumbest outpourings of humanity I've ever seen; often seconds away from each other. My love/hate relationship with it is ongoing and immutable.

Abandon hope all ye who enter here.

Sorry, it doesn't work like that;

For the sake of argument, yes but given we're only on Jan 3rd, you have 362 days to get the job done which- for me anyway- would probably be enough to ensure that I had the time I needed to chase down the majority of the various gremlins that have eluded me up to this point. I suspect I could...

Thanks for your replies so far. As my mental health is waaay too buoyant at the moment I've also stuck this on Reddit so I may have my spirit crushed by the limitless banality of the responses.

Ah, but what about mega spendy used treasures? The Planar 1 won't mangle them and you would still own them come Jan '23 when you can choose another TT?
