I am replacing my 1980s model having at last sorted out some storage place for my record collection. I plan to use it with my original amp, lovely 1950s speakers, but the analogue tuner and tape player will go!


Meant to go to Richer sounds yesterday and may still pop in tomorrow.


Any advice? Not sure why I would want a USB model (amp just takes raw wire input). What else has changed in the last three decades?


Plan up to a couple of hundred, I understand that this is nowhere near top of the range, but I doubt whether my record collection is in great condition!

I hadn't followed this thread in recent posts, but was about to conclude that I had bought a British made Rega from Billy Vee Sound Systems in Lee. Found details in part by accident on line, should have just read the above recommendation,


Anyway brilliant, enjoying my old vinyl again. Thanks all.


And now gone up one further on this thread to find Billy Vee. Serendipity!

good choice on the rega.. you'll have no regrets there.. as an upgrade you might want to buy a white belt for it as it does make a noticeable difference

Bottom of the range RP1

Playing with a 1982 amp, 1950s speakers, 1997 CD player and 2016 turntable. Still sounds good though.

I binned by 1985 tape deck and my 1970s tuner. No valves sadly....


Nice to go to a specialist and talk it through. Richer Sounds were OK but not as helpful

    • There can be different vaccine versions for different age groups. Two weeks after having my two from DL at TJHC I have today a text from TJGP to say free flu vaccine is available for me  at the practice, and asking me to book online (where next appointment offered shows as 13 November). Years ago, when the two practices were still in Melbourne Grove, the GP practice was similarly not aware that I'd already had my flu vaccine at DL.  This time I can see my 9 October Covid one in my NHS online GP Acute Medicines records, and then, at the end of the entries: "Unknown Date "Influenza vaccine (surface antigen, inactivated) suspension for injection 0.5ml pre-filled syringes ..." I'm wondering if this date error is happening to others getting dual vaccinations from the TJ DL, or any other DL branches.  And whether it's turning up in the patient records of any other GP practice.
    • What kind of witch hunt is this? mandatory facial recognition? prison for shoplifters? Shops can protect their stock as they wish. but they choose profits first.  The obvious solution would be delivery only - and when you can get your shopping in 15minutes, who really needs to go to the shop? but no, the shops like the sales from people browsing and being hungry when they shop. They don't lay the shops out for our enjoyment. They don't actually care that much. If they did, there would be active and empowered security, lower stock on shelves, more security tags etc... don't be fooled. If you're going to go after shoplifters, go after the organised crime, theft to order etc

Avoided them until last year…. Luck of drawer if you are as sick as fog  or just sore arm … assume - god knows - that flu jab is same throughout country.
