I need a new hobby

So I was in GoodWill, and they had a Dual 1228...
...and I plugged it in, and the strobe said that it made speed - hey, look, it spins accurately at both 33 AND 45....

And I looked up from it with a look of pained resignation on my face, because I knew that it would have to come home with me.

At some point, I'll have to stop.

In my own small way, I collect cameras, and I collect Dual turntables (...oh, and I guess maybe I also collect acoustic-suspension loudspeakers...) - but then, I can store a dozen or more cameras in the volume occupied by one turntable.

So yeah, collecting turntables is becoming a problem . . . but at least I'm not one of THESE guys:

The Maytag Collector's Club


Which brings us to Bob's Law of the Internet:

In whatever direction you care to look, you can always find somebody further Out There than you are.
