I just bought the walnut colored version of this exact turntable with matching speaker set on ebay. The total cost was $370, which isn't bad considering these were brand new still in box. I basically got a $900 setup for almost a third of the cost. Too bad the company went under.

Great video! I loved seeing George Harrison 33&1/3, a great understated album. Regarding records falling off, why not get a sheet of 1/8 inch plywood and attach it to the back of the unit? One could get the hardware store to cut into a couple smaller pieces to make it fit better in a vehicle. You can even cut with a hand saw if you don't use power tools. (I do woodworking as a hobby though, so I'd use a table saw.) I recently made my son a record player cabinet and some crates. Now i need to make a cabinet for myself. Ha Ha!😂

I buy used CDs in mint condition on Discogs for less than $10. Vinyl is a scam. The record companies pushed Vinyl, because they realized Vinyl is a much better theft deterrent than a CD. CDs can be ripped by any computer in 5 minutes. Vinyl takes much longer and requires special equipment. The only downside to collecting CDs is some newer albums weren’t issued on CD or they had very limited CD release, but there are quality bootlegs available for some of these albums (eg Frank Ocean’s Blonde, Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo).

I’m finding it difficult to find detailed technical information on their digital jukeboxes. What OS does it run the UI on? How do I get my 180,000+ tracks onto the jukebox? Does the OS have file sharing so I can transfer them from my music workstation? Does it support Airplay? Which version? Can an additional USB drive be added? Does it support volume leveling? What audio formats does it support? Does it support ALAC? What happens when the internal hard drive DOES fail? User serviceable? Or, $$$ to Rock-Ola? Only a 1TB drive? That’s painfully small. I’d need at least a 10TB or 2, 5TBs. I see it’s windows OS. Can you hook up a keyboard and make further customizations? How does the amp get its input? Is there a DAC. What bit rates, etc does it support. I’m not thinking near-term, but if I do eventually get one, I’d probably throw in a Mac mini and use it to run the box remotely. Is the touchscreen COTS? USB or serial connection to the PC?

I have one. Replacing the strings is a problem with this guitar. You have these tiny grub screws on the headstock which are a PITA to deal with. Two screws for each string. Feeding the strings through the tiny holes is also not fun. They should make it like a Floyd locking nut instead. I tightened one screw too much and the string snapped. Other than that it’s not too bad over all. But it doesn’t play nearly as well as a Strat or Les Paul.
