{"text":"@pave_the_earth I appreciate the advice. long-term durability is not something that has come up yet. Ultimately I would like to upgrade them to players with better mechanisms that also have speed control. Basically how I got here was trying to get a decent older player to refurbish but being burned by a tech who didn't know what he was doing, then giving up and picking an option I knew would be solid at least in the medium term. I hope to one day befriend someone who really knows their shit and who I can work with to get a pair of really good older machines.\nI borrowed my friends Marantz PMD430 and used it for a little while and was super impressed in the overall quality and features, but it still was a little wobbly compared to my cp13. So definitely not something I would be excited to own without help. But the PMD420, or a Nak500, would be so awesome to have","truncated":false,"created_at":"Fri Dec 13 02:40:42 +0900 2024","in_reply_to_status_id":"8156530","uri":"https:\/\/octodon.social\/users\/Aleums\/statuses\/113641078121593219","source":"ActivityPub","source_link":null,"id":8156531,"in_reply_to_user_id":121432,"in_reply_to_screen_name":"pave_the_earth","geo":null,"user":{"id":31074,"name":"tadpole slurper","screen_name":"Aleums","location":null,"description":"27, white.
