This came stuck to my Kenwood kd2070, I did an image search to no avail (suggested it was a rega isolation foot or a 45 adapter). I assume it also goes with the other thing in the image that says lock. I have no idea what it is and none of the pictures of other kd 2070's have this thing stuck to it
I bought this Kenwood kd2070 on ebay, it came with everything except a headshell. I tried to balance the tone arm and even at the forward most position the counterweight was still too heavy for the tone arm to drop down to the platter. Then I noticed this. Is this a problem? If so how do I fix it? It seems to be attached with some sort of rubber damper
Found this on eBay and is currently the table I'm most interested in assuming its decent. This would be to replace my lp60x
Been shopping for a new turntable to upgrade from my lp60x. In the market for either a new or used table doesn't really matter to me. I don't really know much about vintage tables but I heard some of these brands I've looked at are good?.
Basically I have around 400 dollars that I've decided on something vinyl record related. Trying to decide if I should get a new turntable or collect more records. I currently use a audio technica lp60x hooked to a art dj preii for the pre amp and a douk u3 headphone amp with a pair of dt770's for my current turntable setup. My question is for my budget can I get a turntable that has a better sound quality and is a big enough jump to justify my 400 dollar budget or should I just grow my collection for until I save up some more cash.
What turntable would you recommend, or what records would you recommend? I need to discover some new music.
Fyi I don't use speakers because the space my setup is in isn't big enough for the kind of system I'd want to get for speakers.
Saw this hp oem 3080 on eBay for around 350, there are some other 3080's around the 325-400 dollar range on eBay. I was planning on upgrading my rtx 2080 to a rx 9060xt or a 9070xt. I'm now considering getting a 3080 because it's 20-25 percent faster than the 9060xt and around 20-30 percent slower than a 9070xt. I also considered a b580 but decided against it because it would be a sidegrade at best with a little more vram and I could get the 3080 for around the same price as a b580 anyway. My only real concern with these eBay refurbished 3080's is if they were used in a mining rig during the mining boom, and if so how likely is it to actually affect me down the road?
If it's worth mentioning I'm really only upgrading my GPU to run games at the same settings and performance at 1440p instead of 1080p.
Off topic from this post but I wanted to mention it:
If you saw my last post on this sub I fixed my thermal issues. At first I tried taking the stuff out of the case which like I thought didn't help more than 1-2 degrees and the gpu still thermal throttled. What ended up fixing it was completely tearing down the card to re paste and clean out the 8 years worth of dust stuck in the heatsink I couldn't get to before, also repasting the card which had a suspiciously small amount of paste from the factory or whoever changed it last. I also got a Arctic freeze 3 240mm aio for my CPU and now running furmark and prime 95 at the same time the CPU maxes at 80 at 105watts and the gpu maxes at 77 and 83 on the hotspot running at 222 watts. Not sure about what they are boosting too because I didn't care to look but they aren't thermal throttling.
Both times I've contacted support they said it would come in 24 hours. To no one's surprise that was a lie lol.
Let the shitshow begin
