    The Pro-Ject Pergola - Questions, Answers, Advice & Chat

    So, my Pro-ject Debut Carbon Evo, which I've had about six months, has started doing a weird thing today: about every other time I start it up, the platter starts spinning the wrong direction. If I then turn it off and on again, it goes the right way. Anyone have this issue before?

    The Tom Waits Thread

    I love the mention of Harry K Cody, having been a big Shotgun Messiah fan in my teenage years.

    got the acrylic platter for my pro-ject. I haven't really many chances to listen to it yet, though. My wife started a new job a month ago, we both work from home, and she's constantly in meetings so I can't really blast any records like I want to. Looking forward to when I can. So far, I *think...

    I started watching this a few months back, but realized ( that I wasn't in the mood for it at the time. I should return to it soon. I did enjoy Raw a good amount.

    The Pro-Ject Pergola - Questions, Answers, Advice & Chat

    1) Did you have to adjust anything with the acrylic platter? The top amazon review says that this platter is 2mm thicker than the metal one + mat, and I believe my TT doesn't have any kind of tone arm vertical adjustment 2) I've got the US bought version that comes with the Sumiko Rainier...

    What's Spinning

    Janelle Monae - The Archandroid I remember in the fall of 2010, working a new job, this was one of those albums I had on repeat. For the most part, I've enjoyed her albums since (the song Screwed is hot garbage, though) but she's yet to come close to this one, IMO.

    The Pro-Ject Pergola - Questions, Answers, Advice & Chat

    I’m looking to start small upgrades to my pro-ject début carbon evo. I have just the stock version from turntable lab. I’m thinking either an acrylic platter, or just an acrylic mat with a weight of some kind. Any ideas/thoughts?

    STAR WARS! STAR WARS! STAR WARS

    For as much as Gilroy has said he's not really a Star Wars guy, he's pretty much kicking ass as one. IMO, the level of respect for the universe is outstanding. So many little references/easter eggs that are just... there, rather than screaming "look at me!" Like, one passing mention of Hosnian...

    Everything Video Games!

    I've been getting back into the Oculus (it's still that to me, Meta!) On a whim, I bought both Warplanes games. Once you get your body over the nausea factor, they're so fun! I get way to much into crazy loops and rolls, and kind of stink at actually playing the game, but flying in VR is a...

    I really only know the last Low album, and a bit of the previous one. I know my wife was into their earlier work, but whenever I hear early stuff it seems way too maudlin for me. Maybe I just need to find an "in."

    There are always certain artists who, when I hear them/listen to them, I think "I really should listen to them more." Current examples: A Place to Bury Strangers and King Princess.
