This site is the first high-strength, high-grooming girl artifact — Audio-Technica Iron Triangle LP120 Recorder

Grass articles

Recently, the film "Ode to Joy" was sought after by many people. The various styles inside were imitated and surpassed by various people. There is a shot inside me that is still fresh in my memory - Singular classmates in order to please Andy, invited him to dinner at home, Ho Chen did not cook their own skills, only under the "Sanquan" frozen dumplings.

Of course, when I waited for the performance of the silk thread, I would go here and eat a dumpling. The goddess was of course taken away. However, students in Singularity are good at guessing the sister-in-law, and when they boiled dumplings, they released a vinyl record. This is this.

Well, I can only say, Singularity, ah, you are too high. I couldn’t get it for quick-frozen dumplings, but your vinyl record and red wine are matched with your mansion. The whole style has changed, has it become a high-end atmosphere?

As a music lover, I'm just mad in my heart! ! Imagine the slowly rotating record, elegant arc of the arm playing rock rhythm or magnificent symphony, think of feeling excited! This grass, of course, I am long-term, of course, home LD may not allow me to do so, so I must buy something she likes to listen to, well, check the Taobao above the new collection of Chen Baiqiang and Goteborg Variations are spot, That's best, let her also listen together. So just in the all-powerful Ma boss home began the election road.

Purchase articles

Because taking into account the vinyl record player is not a universal type of audio source, considering that the owner of the horse is relatively full of home goods, so he searched one by one. Of course, the price is too expensive and too cheap to be ruled out first, because I am ready to connect to the current home living room with the Onkyo 5800 panoramic sound set stereo on a simple listening, too advanced is also not use; too low certainly can not Buy, because the previously mentioned Chen Baiqiang and Gothenburg Variations on the two discs on more than 400, bought a few hundred pieces of the machine is obviously suspected of destroying the disc. Looking at it, the more reliable entry phonograph was at the price of 1000-3000, which is also within the range that I can afford. The spirit of research and development of the technology house is reflected here. I have summarized that in this price range, there are the following types to choose from:

1. Fully automatic/manual player

The so-called fully automatic player, that is to say only select the record size and speed, and then press the play button, the horn will automatically be placed on the outermost edge of the record, playing, just as easy as a CD record (but does not support the selection function). Most of the phonograph arms of this type of player are relatively simple and can not adjust the acupressure and anti-sliding force (of course, these phonographs have been adjusted before leaving the factory. Everyone can use it without worrying about it. Discharge is similar to the Tianlong DP-300F. This type of structure may therefore not be well-adapted to long-term needle wear and replacement of the cartridge, which may have limitations for this "technology house."

So, I decided to buy this "manual" phono player, that is to say, the movement of the phono arm is to rely on my hand, and the acupressure, anti-sliding force, and the height of the horn can be adjusted, even sing. The head can be changed at will, which is very attractive for long-time music lovers.

2. Belt drive / direct drive

Of course, we can see that the high-grade turntables are all belt-driven because this minimizes jitter.

However, in fact, the 1000-3000 player of this grade is still strong and reliable. Because of the weight of the materials and the overall turntable, there is a big god saying that the jitter of the belt machine and the direct drive are not significantly different at this price point, and at the same time there is more Belt drive, reliability will be reduced, comprehensive advantages and disadvantages, this price may be more suitable for direct drive.

3 domestic brands / Japanese brands / European and American brands

Its realization has many domestic phono brands, and the shipments are relatively large and reliable. In fact, I think I also know that the principle and purpose of the turntable are very simple, that is, to make the record rotate at a constant speed, so the technical problems will be less, and domestic manufacturers are better. The pickup part directly purchases a large number of applications in the market, such as the iron triangle or the Tianlong pickup (a bit of a high-level wind player), and can also make a very high-performance player with a very beautiful appearance. But I wanted to force me to turn around and saw European brands such as Baodie and Gentleman. Well, the price suddenly went up. It was reluctant to spend so much on just spending so much, and the landlord's audio system... . Well, since there are many record players that are Tianlong or Iron Triangle players, the two companies will definitely not be able to pass. After watching the two currently producing phonographs, I discovered that the Japanese phonograph is really a one-price, one-off item. Although the overall positioning is partial to entry, it is basically the conscience of this price, let alone iron. There are many types of triangle pickups. If you buy a machine from your home, you can play different types of pickups. It is enough to toss the vinyl to a proficient level. Therefore, you should basically consider buying an iron triangle machine. In addition, when it comes to Japanese phonographs, one must mention the 1200 music.

This is exactly the immortal works in the history of vinyl record players. Although it is not expensive, it is highly reliable and is widely used in DJs. Due to its design, it is mainly due to the strong reliability and adjustment ability of the direct drive motor, coupled with a suitable speed adjustment function, sound quality is also decent, is indeed the most ideal DJ machine. However, this machine has been discontinued. Taking into account the similarities in structure, appearance, and design use, I took a look at the LP120USB machine of the Iron Triangle (I wonder if this machine is a 1200 halo of the plagiarism of Chiguoguo). And this machine is also recognized on the Internet as the first choice for the vinyl record player. Mainly heavy body, direct drive cast aluminum turntable and matching iron triangle elliptical needle pickup, there is no obvious BUG exists. So in the various home to find the cheapest goods ready to start.

Through the comparison of major websites, it was found that Ma Boss’s offer was basically between 2800-3500. He was looking forward to flipping through Amazon China. He found out that Amazon China had purchased this machine overseas, and that silver was just right. Do specials, the price of a single machine is more than 1600, counted nearly 600 of the freight and tariffs, the price of about 2200, of course, this is OK, and decisive Amazon orders. As a result, prices resumed on the second day. With more than 1900 single machines, it seems that I was still lucky.

Unpacking

In order to save money, the slowest courier service was chosen. It was expected to arrive in 14 working days. I was surprised that after 10 days, I received a call from the Amazon courier and said that I had a large parcel downstairs. . Psychic secretly happy, because the record has been home for many days, suffering from no machine to listen to, watching only day after day. This time the machine arrived, and finally it was cool. Then excitedly went to the property to get parcels after work. The moment I saw the box, I was petrified. Is it so big? Where can I put this small house? ?

Well, open the Amazon packaging, the original packaging only exposed.

This volume is still acceptable

Let us poke his mind one by one. The top is the MAT, the record pad.

Then there is a transparent plexiglass mask. Well, it seems that the package is still very hard.

Underneath the plexiglass mask was the phono body. I took out the foam on both sides of the phono recorder and suddenly heard a jingle. My God, the cast aluminum platter was simply fixed to the bottom of the bubble and fell to the ground. I thought that those HI-END phonographs were flaunting their own discs with a precision instrument. I fell down freely, and I was afraid that I would throw out an inconvenience...

Put the player on the coffee table, the goods are still a little weight, 10kg seems courier or value

Note that before installing the turntable, dial this voltage dial from 110V to 230V, otherwise the boot will burn!

During the transport, there is no cartridge attached to the phonograph arm, and the cable is firmly attached to the horn clip.

The cartridge and other accessories are on one side of this foam box.

I first installed the turntable on the spindle, you can see the opposite side of the turntable, obviously the aluminum casting process.

The built-in pickup AT95 has been mounted on the cartridge shell, and the screw above seems to have been adjusted several times. Fortunately, lest this newcomer himself adjust. It can be seen that the pickup shell and pickup are also iron triangles. This is the advantage of entry-level buying of the iron triangle. At least they are more at ease than the domestic brands. At least they are big names.

Carefully installing the cartridge on the phono arm, can I say that I am trembling at this time? Because a lot of netizens are at this stage, they have already planted a head-butt and have directly broken the needle.

Attachment weights and 45 turn disc adapter. When properly adjusted, the scale on the counterweight is the gram pressure of the needle.

This is what we saw at the beginning of the "MAT" - the record pad. The iron triangle's brand awareness is still OK, and it is a show on the turntable.

The design of this player is somewhat interesting. The phono output is not our common RCA female connector. Instead, it is directly wired out. It is a male connector. If you need to use an extension cable, the iron triangle gives you a female connector to connect the 3.5mm female connector. The line and the 3.5mm male are connected to the RCA male line. This way, if you use an appropriate length to connect the amplifier and player, you only need one RCA male line, two connectors per channel, so if you need to If you connect the RCA male line, you must have 4 connectors. I really don't know how this set of connection methods is made. Well, I use this broken line to connect the Onkyo 5800 suit to open it!

The initial installation of the player is still more feel. Note that at this time I have not removed the needle protection sleeve, and then it is time to go into the debugging phase.

Commissioning

There are many places where the player can debug, and the experienced enthusiasts can speak 7-9 debugging points, but it is limited to the adjustable part of this machine and my novice level, currently only debugging three places - acupressure, resistance Slide force, arm height.

Adjusting the acupressure is the simplest and most important. Generally, the MM cartridge will recommend acupressure of 1.5-2g. If the needle pressure is too small, the sound is fluttering and there is no sense of reality. If the needle pressure is too high, the needle will be damaged. So I bought a horse owner's home the cheapest acupressure meter back. I first remove the stylus cover and balance the horn by adjusting the rear weight. After balancing, rotate the scale in the first half of the balance block to 0, which is equivalent to setting the initial value.

With the balanced singer arm, it can be seen that my phonic arm lifter has been put down and the phono arm is in a natural horizontal state.


When the scale was adjusted to 1.5, the acupressure gauge showed a needle pressure of 1.67 g, which seemed to be a little higher than our expected 1.6 g.

Then rotate the counterweight in the opposite direction. When it reaches 1.4 or so, the needle pressure is 1.6g, OK, perfect!


After that is the adjustment of anti-slip force. The player is an S-type singer arm, and it is designed to counteract the problems of the sliver and tangent angles of different diameter screech lines. In this way, the stylus can maintain an ideal tangential direction with different diameters of singers. However, the disadvantage of this is that the friction between the stylus and the record will give a centripetal force to the singer arm. This will cause the stylus to slide inward, causing the pressure inside the stylus to be greater than the outside, and two channels of sound will be heard in the short term. Unbalanced, long-term results in uneven wear of the stylus and early retirement of the stylus. Therefore, adjusting the anti-sliding force and letting the phono-arm produce an opposing force can offset this part of force. The schematic diagram is as follows:

It seems that adjustment is difficult, but we understand that it is better to understand this truth. Because this force is a force between the record and the stylus and the force in the singer arm, when the angle of the S-singer arm is fixed and the friction coefficient between the stylus and the record is fixed, the force is related to the acupressure. Positive correlation. In other words, when the needle pressure is large, the anti-slip force adjustment is larger, and when the needle pressure is smaller, the anti-sliding force adjustment is smaller. Some of the phono companies here also simply explained that the value of the anti-sliding force is equal to the acupressure! This is simple and straightforward. Of course, the machine manufacturer of the iron triangle is recommended to be set to 2, which is not much worse than my acupressure value of 1.6, so I'm here to set it to 2 at first and listen to it for a while.

Adjusting the arm height is actually adjusting the "vertical tracking angle". Look carefully at the stylus. Because the stylus is a metal rod attached to the frontmost diamond tip, the stylus itself cannot hold the horn absolutely upright. As a result, the angle of the needle has great freedom with everyone's adjustment. It is generally believed that the singer arm axis is slightly higher than the front end of the phono. However, the specific person to whom the benevolent sees the wise man sees wisdom. Basically, I didn't adjust this value to a large extent and I thought the sound was OK. It could be my fungus.

Play articles

After these three adjustments were made, it was finally time to play. At the beginning of the broadcast, I certainly chose a new record for testing. Above all, after the chicken leg song, adele's "21" album.

Start the turntable and place the phono on the guide rail on the outermost side of the record. Then put down the horn lifter. The stylus slowly touches the record, and the sound flows. The whole process is so primitive and direct.

Adele's voice is still so penetrating, through the feeling of the soul, instantly shocked me.

In order to listen to LP's replay ability for rock music, I started the new version of 180G double disc Michael Jackson's "Dangerous Journey."

This set of LP has only 3 pieces of music on each side, which means that the amplitude of the singing patterns is quite large, and the singing patterns that change with the beat can be seen with the naked eye! The dynamic is also quite amazing, sharp bass and bass response, with a slow record rotation, it is a dreamy feeling.

Of course, as a classical music lover, classical music LP is, of course, the focus of investigation.

This LP of the Lao Hai was a Japanese version, and it was suppressed in 67 years. It was actually arranged on the front and back of this disc that "The Song of the Homeless," "Mendelsson Violin Concerto," and "Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto." It's too kind! However, due to the old age, and only the appearance of the album EX, a huge rush of beans sounded to come ... ...% ... ...% ... ... a little small disappointment ah.

Of course, there are still a few of these products that are better than others. They are all NM grades. It sounds very OK!

EMI's little angel spins on my record player.

There is Gould, by the way shouting "Sony Dafa is good!" !

The complete collection of Saier Beethoven, especially the last movement of the sixth Symphony inside, is very beautiful!  

At night, one listens to vinyl.

In the end, it is still a vinyl record player with three full-speed frozen dumplings.

to sum up

In front of a lot of space introduced the appearance and value of the vinyl record player, but we do not think that the landlord is a superficial person, think that only at home B installed, in fact, is not exactly the case. As the most important player in the last century, the vinyl record player has a large number of classic second-hand media. Because of the physical characteristics of LP records, it can be stored for a long time and properly preserved. 50-year records can be heard with relish. Therefore, as a music lover, the use of vinyl records to savor the golden era of classical recordings of the 50s and 70s was still of practical significance (recording, editing, suppressing records, and playing records). Of course, the premise is that you have to use a more suitable price to buy a second-hand dish that is good enough. Based on my experience with these several purchases, the cheapest NM-grade discs will be around 40 yuan at the cheapest, with the increasing degree of discrepancies and the classic degree of interpretation, such as my Japanese version of Richter. Performing Beethoven's first piano concerto is in good condition. It will have 100 oceans. As for asking why I bought the Japanese version? Because it's cheap, if it is a German version, the status is only EX, actually still 120...

Finally, at the end, I wish you all the best to play with your hobbies. It is your greatest happiness to be able to get support from your family while I love it! Goodbye! !
