Brick are you just listening to things in the office, and saying that you love them.

I LOVE MUSIC  !!

Do you really love music, or are you just saying that because you heard it?

I LOVE MUSIC, I LOVE MUSIC !!

Need new turntable to replay the hundreds of vinyl albums I have sitting in the basement. Will keep me from having to repurchase some great old and out-of-print jazz and classical music. Nice site, by the way.

But maybe the RP1 is better - the only way I'll find out is if you give me this one to test 8-)

Bigboi1952's picture

This is a great combo to convert analog to digtal for those times when you can't spin vinyl, like in the car.  Listen to vinyl though.  Your ears will thank you.

My Music Hall turntable's motor just started making an awful shriek. I'm going to try to lube the proverbial shaft, but a new Rega would sure be a cooler solution. Cheers! -Tom

I have been letting my oldest son listen to my vinyl recently and he is getting more and more interested in it.  Would love to give him this turntable along with an original, unopened "Imagine" album I have that I bought as a kid and never played since I had a second one given to me as a gift.

Ooooo~ that is so nice I want to make love to it~ I would love to win one~!

kent47's picture

It's been over ten years since my Dual 1019 with Sure V15 Type Vmr has been useable.  The speed cannot hold constant.  I miss the vinyl sound.  This would be great to get me back "on the wagon!"  This would especially help out for the vinyl releases that have not been moved to CD, MP3 or high-resolution sound files (audio-files?).  Just think, you could save my sanity, brain and ears!  (Well, one out of three isn't bad.....if you happen to be talking about batting average.)  Thanks for the fish and "Enjoy the Music!"

deacondee's picture

I would be pleased to be presented with the prizes you have selected.

 

ijpdesign's picture

...and my son might even listen to some of my vinyl on this!!!

cybertred's picture

Had a Planar3 back in the 80's.  Upgraded to something much more expensive.  Curious on how much the Rega sound has progressed since.

Hello Employees Of Analog Planet & Music Direct,

Good Day To You All!

If yours truly is chosen as the recipient of this covetous prize, you can count on me to have and to hold, to cherish, nay, adore this immaculate conception of artistic design and brilliantly engineered handiwork to the utmost of my ability. I shall treat the phonograph as an offspring of my very own, and raise and nurture it with great care and endearment. You have my word.

I shan't violate her with the likes of unintelligent, distasteful melodies from the dingy lair of popular music icons, who tend to butcher their works with artificially conceived tones and sour, automatically-generated vocals. This would be an imposterous act, and such rubbish shall never touch the beautiful surface of this machine which seems as it has been gifted to this mortal world from the gods. 

One more time let me emphasize my longing for the possession of this superordinate music player with this simple analogy: Imagine a marsupial struggling to survive in the frigid klondike region of Canada, while attempting to care for her young. Though this animal has wandered far out of it's native environment and found itself in a predicament of seemingly insurmountable despair, it no less has an obligation to protect it's young and provide it with a mother's love and care at all costs than it did in it's native region. Because she has been entrusted with the care of this precious youth, she is unconditionally tied and held accountable to the result of this baby's existence. This is her only choice. Whether she enjoys attempting to sustain the child's lifespan or not, she must replace the desires of her heart with the needs of her offspring. She must place the child in her pouch and carry on as far as she can with the intent of reaching her home once again. Likewise, I would treat the entrustment of this fantastic turntable in the same manner. Please, allow me to "place the child in my pouch" and become one with the device. I believe she would be happy to have me as her loving master and accompany me on the journey through the cold, dark region of life, as she pleases me with her sweet melodies and encourages me to trudge on to the finish.

 

Thank You For Your Consideration.

-JR (Lover of Music)

I've been eye balling this record player for a good little while. I've got a mountain of vinyl that hasn't been played in years and ready to readjust the ears back to that analog wave where everythings warmer minus the 0's and 1's and digitized decay but need a fine machine like this rega to make it happen!

Stevieray's picture

I so need this to complete my all British hi-fi setup!  Long live Rega, Naim, Quad, and all others!

Nice site Mike, what I say is, its about time all us appreciaters of real music, not silicon approximations, had a site dedicated to the persuit of musical excellence through the use of a diamond ploy in a vinyl drainage ditch, who knew we were so right in being retro? good luck and many thanks.
