The vlogger is Schlipperschlopper (Germany)

When you're done, check out the rest of the vloggers YT channel:

His best 'table/cart. system may be a 1979 Soviet (USSR) "Korvet". Schlipperschlopper mostly uses UNRESTORED gear from 1960-1970s, and much of it is broadcast (pro) equipment from those eras. The best phono stage he uses may be DIY design from Elektor magazine (1978 or 1982).

After hearing his 128k YouTube vids, I literally can't go back to my VPI-HW19/Sumiko BP Special/Van-Alstine phono pre ... much less CD players, files and DACs.

Clearly, digital is CAPABLE of this level of audio fidelity ... or am I hearing something "WRONG" in Schlipperschlopper's uploads?

I'll leave you all with Michael Jackson "Thriller", played on the 1979 Soviet "Korvet" (this is an East German "AMIGA" pressing):

In a way, the YT uploads by the vlogger are the ultimate YouTube "hack".
As a further experiment, I downloaded some of those vinyl-rips on to my HDD. JDownloader allows one to do this and select the max bit rate YT streams at (often, it's 156k Opus). But, I was stunned that files are only 128k!!

The vlogger claims that he first records the phono signal to a 1971 Uher open-reel deck (for some reason, taking it AGAIN into the analog domain helps, he claims!)
Then, he uses a cheap 24/96 A/D card (made in 2002) but only records in 16/44.1. And that audio is, then, combined with video (in post) and up'd to YT.
