    Raspberry Pi & Squeezelite

    OK I admit it I jumped the gun and gave an unfair opinion! After taking my time with the setup and reading the install notes properly I'll be honest and say Squeezeplug is pretty neat, its a bit of a jack of all trades which at first seems quite appealing but in reality I think few people will...

    Raspberry Pi & Squeezelite

    Cool I'll give that a try this afternoon, to be fair, I didn't read the install notes on Squeezeplug and reading them this morning it seems I may have missed a step or two  :roll: if it does what they say it does then it will be pretty decent.

    Interesting, did you flash it with Linux or still using Android? What are you using for LMS?

    Raspberry Pi & Squeezelite

    I tried out piCorePlayer this afternoon and its actually not too bad. The Wandboard is cool but a bit pricey, you're nearing the price of a Duet on the 2nd hand market unless I'm missing something? I'd like to try one of the Hifiberry boards with piCorePlayer, would be interesting to see how...

    Raspberry Pi & Squeezelite

    I haven't played with one of these for a while so I decided to get one again to see where the dev is at and also what the new hardware performs like. I've prevously used openelec because its fairly streamlined and mature so went this route again, setup was a breeze and has come a long way from...

    LF: Rega Planar 3 Belt.

    I was thinking exactly the same thing! Adagio, try mark the small pulley with a black marker or tipex or something like that to see if its the pulley slipping or the belt, I wouldn't bother with heating the belt etc.. it will be a short term fix, best to get a new belt but its going to cost...

    Ariston RD11 Superieur revival

    Yeah, I believe the table originally came from you, nice work on the arm boards and tonearm wire upgrades  :thumbs: Maybe I must try a better cartridge on the tonearm, while I continue my tonearm search.

    Ariston RD11 Superieur revival

    Thanks for the feedback really appreciate it, I'll look to broaden my search, only issue then is that I'll have to get new arm boards cut and I'm just worried I hash the placement of the tonearm but I suppose there's only one way to tell and a bit of trial and error. Agree, the Sansui SR222...

    Ariston RD11 Superieur revival

    I bought an Ariston RD11 Superieur on the forum in the week, I'm a stickler for a product that has a history and background story like this so when I came across this table I was sold and I'd really like to transform it back to its former glory. The table plays pretty well as is but a few...

    CEC BA-600

    The CEC's are great machines, really well made, a little over engineered but all tables from that era and country seem to have been :) I had one for a while and it was great. With the RCA mod, make sure you use shielded RCA cables. Its unlikely you'll get a needle replacement depending on the...

    Anyone know of a foolproof USB to RS232 solution?

    Shew, its been a long time since I've worked with this but its important to ensure the baud rate, handshaking etc.... is set correctly, I know in the old days on Windows machines we used to use hyperterminal to do this, a Google on baud rate etc... should send you in the right direction. If the...

    DIY Record Cleaning Machine

    Agree, I use very thin double sided tape, sticks really well, I attach the velvet strips and leave to bond for at least 24 hours.

    DIY Record Cleaning Machine

    Fair enough, I thought along the same lines but chose to invest more on the record cleaning clamp since it keeps the record label watertight. Since my machine works well, I'd probably now be prepared to spend the extra money on upgrading the arm. Yes, its a propad, I've used them before as...

    DIY Record Cleaning Machine

    I Looked at using that arm on mine but the cost once landed put me off although USD69 isn't bad. What brush is that?

    DIY Record Cleaning Machine

    Did you block the end of the PVC pipe off with something? the end that is closest to the center spindle. If you did then the only other things I can think of are a.)    The slit you've cut is too broad, it should not be broader than 1mm and should be consistently broad b.)    The slit length...

    linux command line players

    Just out of interest sake why do you want a command line player? Is the audio playback local?

    Cartridge to headshell connecting wires

    So besides for having to make these up, any idea where to get some of these leads in JHB? I need a couple of sets.
