Hello everyone, I am new to this place and new to vinyl records, especially 45rpm in Mono.
however, I want to change my turntable because it can't play 45rpm. The old turntable is a fully automatic one that only play with 33rpm. SO I need to buy a new one. I prefer manual turntables.

I searched many websites and decided to get a Pro-ject Debut III or Rega P1. BUt I can only have one. SO I am here to ask, which sounds better in Mono and playing 45rpm?

Thank you very much

During my Senior Year, my band Pigeon recorded an album at a local studio in Birmingham, AL. We pulled together the cash we made over the summer and at various shows and played till late in the evening for a short 5 song album. There were special moments from that awesome evening involving walking through the Arby's drive-through, the song George which was written by our friend George and only had 2 chords lasted 12 seconds and 2 syllables (it goes G chord, E chord, "O" "R", G chord, E chord) and actually listening to a quality recording of us playing really really really really loud.

If this has been done before I apologise in advance, however I could not find it, so here we go...

Completely at random and exactly as it comes when it feels good to list a few one liners, the question is, can this community hang together a comprehensive listing of musical / hifi / lofi / anything fi which is unquestionably the definitive list of all 'absolutes' with no debate possible?

With my turban on, and the envelope pressed to my head, "Buddhac the Magnificent" will predict that the envelope for turntables in the late part of 2008 will read..."Direct Drive."

We'll see someone make an outrageously expensive table that somehow overcomes all the evils of direct drive tables. It's spot-on speed will deliver PRaT like no belt drive has ever managed. Piano tones will become more rich and full of harmonic truth.
