So, since this thread, the mixer between the tables has been replaced by a PMC06 Pro D (which owns), the old one relegated to use with electribes/other gear. The carts have just been replaced with Shure M447s. They're not as good as concorde scratch needles, but at £65 for a pair they are a hell of a lot cheaper. I'd used them before so I knew what they sounded like/how they performed, but what I hadn't seen was the packaging. On it is says "Sound Emphasis: Big Bass". I can only assume they are taking the piss. Aside from the fact that no one would want a scratch cart to emphasise bass, it's one of the most high pitched, tinny carts I've used. That's not a diss, it's ideal for scratching, you just have to get used to eqing the mid/low on the deck playing the backing, rather than eqing the high on the deck you're scratching on. It's not much cop for listening, I'm glad I've got spare headshells to allow me to keep "listening" cartridges ready to change over. Still, the softly softly scratching style that my old stanton carts made neccessary means that it's pretty much unskippable on even the minimum recommended 1.5g tracking force. In short, not the best scratch carts by a long way, but because they've been surpassed, you can get good deals on them. And, unless you're competing, the performance isn't too far off better carts, either. |

I am hoping to do an XLT radio show once everything is wired in correctly (internet/network/audio gear). Dunno whether to stick to a theme, or just play whatever I feel like. Might be an experience being able to play to such an open minded audience. |

So, have you actually got a single one yet? When you said second t-amp, I assumed you really liked the first one and hence ordered a second one. Who are you buying yours from (so I know to avoid them)? Chri5py: Good to see you mate. I've just moved away from Cirencester, back in Wales now. I still go to Ciren Monday->Tuesday though if you want to meet up for that bevvy. |

About 6.00pm on a Tuesday I could do, or maybe even a bit later in the summer months. I go through Tetbury on the way home. Good to see you're keeping up the Kung Fu, mine has fallen by the wayside. :( |

I got the first one a couple of weeks ago with the main microchip detatched :S. So i sent it back to be repaired. I got another one because I didn't want to wait 4 weeks, which came today, or rather the box that should have contained it came today. The guy is an ebay dealer but to be honest I actually trust him, I think that the first one may have been my fault (dont ask) and the second one was somehow opened and resealed by someone - there are signs it had been tampered with, and the weight on the customs sticker is far heavier than just an empty box. I'm awaiting a response from the dealer. His name is mobile inc. So who knows what will happen. |
