Gramovox record player

Tight on space? This turntable plays records vertically by incorporating a clamp that pairs with a polished acrylic platter.

You also get an adjustable carbon-fibre tone arm with an Audio Technica cartridge, complete with an elliptical diamond stylus.

It'll play 33 1/3rpm and 45rpm records, and you can chose from premium maple and dark walnut finishes.

Now you've got no excuse to start a vinyl collection.

I still have that one. It was a double album - I think only one of the discs was white vinyl.

I make modules just like that for my moving coil cartridges. In fact on my DIY MC pre-preamp I added extra rca jacks in parallel with the input jacks for plugging them in.

 

I'm not surprised. I added a splitter at the phono amp to accommodate the modules. 

I was surprised by how much difference it makes. I expected it to be more subtle, but it's quite obvious.

For those of you listening to vinyl and using a moving magnet cartridge, check out this article on parallel resistive loading. This is some pretty cool info, especially if your cartridge seems overly bright. 

I've built three pair of modules. One cartridge, an Audio Technica AT 440 MLa, went from bright to luxuriously warm yet still detailed with the addition of a net 32k module. Another Audio Technica, the AT 150MLX needed only slight taming, and sounds best to my ears at a net 43k. 

Here's a photo of a pair of modules I made. Cheap and easy and oh what a difference.

I don't know which is worse—using it as a Frisbee or selling it back to the record store to buy more alternative stuff.
