The good old Pro-Ject record player had to be replaced due to problems with the wiring – repair or buy a new one? I wouldn’t have actually bought a new one, but since it’s for Mother Earth, I made the investment. I am now very happy with it, the new Rega player is simply brilliant.
New straightwire cables, a Pro-Ject Record Cleaner (man, I needed that) and the absolute hammer: a DC filter.
If this is new to you, let me just say: you want one. Believe me.
I didn’t go for the Inakustik AC-4500, which is already working in Christian’s High End Audio Lab and which we all know from the amazing recordings on the show, but I’m very happy with the Supra MD-08 MkIII DC filter I got with the other new stuff.
It needs a few weeks to warm up and settle in and be ready to provide Mother Earth with great music (yes, that’s necessary) – and then I’ll start recording classical records – the classical channel needs it the most.
So that’s how we spend our time here on Mother Earth, it’s demanding!
