Something pretty (click to enlarge):

Thorens TD 125 LB (Modification/modernization: Mk. II electronics with new 78 rpm board, stiffened plinth.)
Bokrand AB309 tonearm on Konne Design Corian arm board

Thanks for your comments.  And is that a new "backdrop" to your record player?

It's not my record player. :)
Mine is still a standard size TD 125, not Long Base, and the birch ply paneled wall is not going anywhere.

I love music. Sadly, I'm an audiophile too.

Playing vinyl records is a ritual.



The Now playing thingy is nice, and so is the Mumin cup.
Great recording and remaster, this new release of the Karajan M6. I hope they'll do his studio M9 too in the series. EBS made a video about the making of the M6 release:

I do love your wall by the way.  Did you install it yourself?

Do you mean the birch plywood? That's my idea and a good carpenter's work.

Yes.   :)  Cool idea!  What did you finish/seal it with?

It's a clear laquer intended for floors, called Trestjerners.

The latest video from EBS on the DG TOS series is very informative. Highly recommended:
