Karl Voit :emacs: :orgmode:Today, I worked on restoring my beloved <a href="https://graz.social/tags/AKAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AKAI</a> GX-95 MK II <a href="https://graz.social/tags/tapedeck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tapedeck</a>. Specs and image: <a href="https://hifi-wiki.com/index.php/Akai_GX-95_MK_II" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://hifi-wiki.com/index.php/Akai_GX-95_MK_II</a>To my surprise, I found multiple videos about it and the original service manual as PDF.I replaced the two belts (although they were still working) and fixed the (typical) issue of not being able to unload a <a href="https://graz.social/tags/cassette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cassette</a> due too much old grease in the mechanics, blocking the eject function.Unfortunately, it still requires some work (and material) since the Wind Idler Assy (idler tire) is completely degraded. It felt like hard plastic instead of rubber.Thankfully, I found a replacement on ebay. Let's wait for the delivery.What a beautiful and great hardware to work with.<a href="https://graz.social/tags/musiccassette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#musiccassette</a> <a href="https://graz.social/tags/HiFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HiFi</a> <a href="https://graz.social/tags/GX95" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GX95</a> <a href="https://graz.social/tags/GX95MKII" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GX95MKII</a> <a href="https://graz.social/tags/restauration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#restauration</a> <a href="https://graz.social/tags/vintagehifi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vintagehifi</a>

prsprttr☕️Päivitetty (23.1.2025) <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/esittely" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#esittely</a>,:tl;dr Olen entistä lähempänä neljääkymmentä ikävuotta lähestyvä IT-nörtti, joka edelleen innostuu aivan liian helposti aivan liian monista asioista. —Arki pyörii perhe-elämän, IT-alan töiden ja monien harrastusten parissa. Harrastuksia löytyy paljon, ja ehkä se onkin tätä nykyä se pääsyy, miksi haluan olla somessa - jotta löytäisin harrastuksiini liittyviä samanhenkisiä ihmisiä.Olen varmaan jonkinlainen salirotta, mutta tykkään myös monenlaisesta aerobisesta liikunnasta. Juoksu, uinti ja pyöräily on tämän hetken valinnat. Lisäksi olen harrastanut toista vuotta Yang-tyylin taijia. Reilu kymmenen vuotta sitten harrastin myös pari vuotta Wudang-tyylisuunnan "käytännöllisempää" taijia, ja olisinkin sitä halunnut jatkaa, mutta paikallisesti täällä ei ollut sille opetusta. Todella hieno laji, jonka oppiminen on vasta alussa ja kestää varmasti koko loppuelämän.Olen elänyt yli puolet elämästäni selkävaivaisena. Sekä täällä, että muilla somealustoilla olen pitänyt lukua <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/selk%C3%A4mies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selkämies</a>-tunnisteella aina kun aiheen puolesta on ollut jotain sanottavaa. Viimeisimpien, pari vuotta sitten sattuneiden pitkien kipuepisodien myötä päätin muuttaa kurssia elämässäni ja yksi tärkeimmistä tehtävistä tuon päätöksen jälkeen on ollut saada kipu pois. Olen jo melko hyvin onnistunut ja saanut sitä vähennettyä, tuloksena painonmuutos -15kg ja aimo annos terveyttä, voimantuottoa ja suorituskykyä on tullut tilalle. Aion jatkaa tällä tiellä ja tavoitteenani on parin vuoden päästä, 40 vuotta täytettyäni, olla elämäni parhaassa kunnossa - toivottavasti ilman kipua kaverinani.<a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/pelaaminen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pelaaminen</a> eri muodoissaan on ollut mukana 4-vuotiaasta lähtien, eikä vauhti ole vuosien varrella hiljentynyt.

David Tanner 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿I wonder if anyone can help with this problem I'm having with an old Record Player. In stereo I'm only getting one channel through. However when I use the Tape input to stream music via a WiFi streamer (WiiM Mini) it's fine both channels are there. If I press the Mono button both speakers have sound. So could this be an issue with the cartridge? It's an old 1970s Hacker Centurion with a Garrard SP25 deck. I can't find any ID on the cartridge. Any ideas much appreciated! <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/HiFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HiFi</a>

Bryan Ruby 🌤️I might be a little late to the party, but I am loving my new Sennheiser HD 560 S headphones! They're my first open-back headphones.

Arda KılıçdağıThis spectrum graph is a direct purchase of a Qobuz song, a music service that offers HQ audio streams and downloads.You can "buy" the tracks from them, they offer downloads:This is the album:<a href="https://www.qobuz.com/gb-en/album/my-arms-your-hearse-opeth/yfn6ba03gskba" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.qobuz.com/gb-en/album/my-arms-your-hearse-opeth/yfn6ba03gskba</a>This song is being claimed that it's 24bit and 96khz on the details page, but as you can see, it's definitely not.Yeah right, 96 kHz my ass.<a href="https://micro.arda.pw/tags/qobuz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#qobuz</a> <a href="https://micro.arda.pw/tags/fake" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fake</a> <a href="https://micro.arda.pw/tags/upscale" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#upscale</a> <a href="https://micro.arda.pw/tags/flac" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#flac</a> <a href="https://micro.arda.pw/tags/audiophile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#audiophile</a> <a href="https://micro.arda.pw/tags/hifi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hifi</a>

archie808Why are people buying these?I see grifters on Youtube promoting them and it's snakeoil Static is caused by friction The main source of friction for a vinyl record is the stylus rubbing the record while it plays itYour turntable should have a grounded spindle which discharges the static through your Amp ground You can easily find out with a multimeter You should have continuity from the metal centre spindle to the Amp ground connector <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vinyl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vinyl</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/audio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#audio</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#electronics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/hifi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hifi</a>

MactonexSometime over the last few years I ended up with no way to play vinyl. Last week I bought an old Cambridge Audio amp from an auction for £10 and some Mordaunt Short speakers on ebay for £20. They sound amazing. Whenever I get a new device capable of playing music the first thing I play is Wuthering Heights. I saw Kate Bush 45 years ago at the Liverpool Empire and it changed my life. Sitting listening to Wuthering Heights still takes me to places that nothing else does. <a href="https://toot.community/tags/KateBush" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KateBush</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/HiFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HiFi</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/vinyl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vinyl</a>
