My tribute to the Vintage Audio Console
I heard quite a few, in my early years
Families once gathered around for Entertainment
Records 78 rpm, 45rpm, 33-1/3rpm
Open Reel Tape
8-Track
Cassette
Some of these old consoles had them all
This is the first ShermanAudio Hi-Fi trivia bit of LP curiosity
"78rpm records, unlike 45rpm and/or 33.333rpm, these Records are cut by a different cutter stylus geometry.
Hence, to properly playback a 78's record, the turntable requires a 78rpm stylus, that is different than the normal LP."
THE TRANSCRYPTOR SKELETON 1973
https://officialtranscriptors.com/
A RARE GLASS TURNTABLE (TT)
DESIGNED & PRODUCED BY DAVID GAMMON IN IRELAND
IN THE PHOTO - MY TRANSCRYPTOR SKELETON
THE ORIGINAL VESTIGIAL TONEARM, WASN'T PART OF IT WHEN I ACQUIRED THE (TT).
THE ORIGINAL COVER & HW ARE ALL OK.
THE MAYWARE FORMULA IV TONEARM, PROTRUDES SO THE ORIGINAL HINGED GLASS COVER
CANNOT CLOSE UNLESS IT PUSHES DOWN ON THE CENTER PIVOT OF THE TONEARM.
THIS (TT) COULD USE A STANDARD LOW PROFILE ARM, INSTEAD OF THE MAYWARE FORMULA IV TONEARM.
IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED IN THIS TURNTABLE, JUST E-MAIL ME, I HIGHLY SUGGEST LOCAL PICKUP
THIS IS VINTAGE IRISH TEMPERED GLASS, MADE IN THE LATE 60'S EARLY 70'.
AGAIN NO VESTIGIAL ARM, THIS ONE USES A MAYWARE FORMULA IV, A RARE CLASSIC NOW.

Vacuum tube references
When you want to really understand the mathematics
these are the cool books for your Library and Shop
Yes, Solid State also has a place in the Tube garden
There are some things that Solid State does better.
Preamplification & Voltage/Current Regulation are two of these
Special mention, below my College Solid State textbook
Still relevant today, it helps me check my Calculations.
Solid State adds SPICE to your Tube recipes....
