Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

A tone arm I use does not have a cue mechanism...

which can be a problem later. It requires a rock solid handling for a hand cueing especially for me, I do a lot of track skipping. ( why is it always my favourite track is the last tune on a record! ) This is why some folks opted for a Linn arm over the Naim ARO altho the factory offered a gadget called *AROmatic*. This was not an elegant solution. :/


I hope I make all the vinyl recording BEFORE I have to use one.

I think that a high res. digital might outdo vinyl ( or come pretty close to it albeit I've a feeling it's not gonna be cheap ). One good thing going for it is lack of feedback. It's inevitable when you play turntable, the airborne vibration transmits to a cartridge affecting the sound.

That said, I don't think I go totally digital cuz, I enjoy discovering new music and artists by picking up used records from local record shops.

Even a pain vanilla Red Book CD rips are getting better than before.
