If I ever found Weird Al records at a thrift store I'd be too busy jerking off to post about it.

Saw Haggatha the other night, and was finally able to get the last two albums I needed to complete the collection: Top row: Haggatha I 12" EP - 2009 Killbomb Records; Haggatha II 180 gram LP - 2010 Choking Hazard Records; Haggatha III EP - 2011 Choking Hazard Bottom row: Haggatha IV LP - 2012 Choking Hazard; Haggatha/Moloch split - 2014 Choking Hazard; Haggatha V LP - 2017 Mass Deadening Records I guess I don't have the Clone Comp with their Wipers cover, but I can't see myself seeking that one out.

If you guys aren't already listening to Sinners Crossroads on WFMU you should get in it quick. It's a long running radio show of great old gospel, and I think he usually plays from the original vinyl. https://wfmu.org/playlists/CR

So far this is the only one I'm having trouble locating.   French pressing of Animal House that I've had sitting around forever.           Been feeling fuzzy lately. I have tickets to King Gizzard next month. Pretty stoked and bonus points the wife digs them too.   Cheap bin stuff.  http://imgur.com/mAKHO91NWS I guess for cartoon dong. Been looking for a song from the movie Whisky 2 and finally found it. Possibly  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9ib9MNceIs (dude breaks his legs around the 8 min mark)

So I'm hoping one or a few folks here can help educate me since I'm beginning to wonder if this is a defect or user error... I recently upgraded from my old RCA LAB-1200 to a U-Turn Orbit. I really love the U-Turn and the upgrade is a ridiculous boost in sound quality, but I've been having constant trouble with it and I'm not sure if I just have terrible luck or if maybe there's something I'm doing wrong. I'm actively talking to U-Turn customer service (they're awesome) but given that they don't have a bad rep I figure it's at least worth asking. I've been collecting records for a little over a decade but having only used a piece of crap beginners table I assume there's a few tricks and whatnot to a nicer table that I'm not aware of Basically the table works phenomenally well and then after a few days of playtime the arm stops resting into the grooves and just skids back across the record. It looks like very aggressive anti-skate, so much so that between the needle dropping and touching the record it's already well on it's way back to the resting position. They replaced the initial table citing that there was likely an issue with the tonearm itself. New table came, worked beautifully, then started doing similar behavior the other day. U-Turn suggested moving the counterweight forward 2mm. I did that, everything was great again. Then last night I put on a $2.99 Zeppelin record that has seen better days and voila, problem is back. Lots of skipping on the old piece of crap records, then when I go back to something that spun fine an hour before I feel like I need to hold the needle in place to even get it to catch whereas it was perfect before. Letting the arm drop gently like I've done in the past doesn't work, it just swings right back and may or may not have touched the surface of the record. So, while I go back and forth with U-Turn's CS department, is there anything I should expect on a higher end table that maybe just points the finger at me being the dumbass? Should I expect old beat up piece of poo poo records to play considerably worse than before? Is it possible for a very skippy record to throw off the balance of the tonearm? Should I expect a correctly balanced tonearm to be able to sit on the outer edge of the record and slide down into the grooves? (currently it does not) Does anybody else with a U-Turn have similar issues?

I have a relatively lovely 80s direct drive table and it plays everything from brand new vinyl to beat up thrift store garbage with essentially no adjustment. Sounds like UTurn is sourcing some cheap parts.

You sure you're balancing your tonearm correctly? It kind of sounds like maybe you're balancing the tonearm but then not zeroing it out and adding the tracking weight of the cart (or not setting the correct tracking weight)?

Balance the tone arm, move the weight marker to zero, then set the weight according to your cartridge's recommend tracking force. While you're at it check that your cartridge is properly aligned. Don't pay hundreds for a TT and tape a loving penny to it lol

Boinks posted:Balance the tone arm, move the weight marker to zero, then set the weight according to your cartridge's recommend tracking force. Thanks for the sanity check! Ordered a VTF gauge from Amazon tonight so that I can actually measure it. Based on what you're saying and research it definitely looks like it's tracking too light. Thicker records are playable, thinner are absolutely not. The counterweight is as far forward as possible. Relayed that info to U-Turn as well my summer at fat camp posted:I have a relatively lovely 80s direct drive table and it plays everything from brand new vinyl to beat up thrift store garbage with essentially no adjustment. Sounds like UTurn is sourcing some cheap parts. I'm hoping this isn't the scenario. I love the look of it, sound quality is great. The one tick in the back of my mind is that they revamped their tonearm in October so manufacturer defects are certainly a reasonable possibility. I wanted to rule out me being the idiot first though
