#technics

I wish everything was as solid and long-lasting as my #stereo.
It consists of a record player from 1992 (#Technics SL-MK #1210), a CD player and a tape recorder from 1995, and a tuner and an amplifier from 1997 (all by #Yamaha).

They have never faltered or failed me. They just work and sound like they did on day one.

My speakers are from 1976 and, for nostalgic reasons, I have never replaced them – although I guess it would make a difference in this case.

Technics EAH-AZ100、すべての音域で量感も解像度もある、情報量の多い音という印象。こんなにいっぱい鳴らないのが、聞き疲れしないのがいいよ、な人にはあんまりかも。ボーカルの主張がもう1つ欲しかったのでイヤーピースはスパイラルドット++に付け替えました #Technics #AZ100

Dotarly moj prezent od siebie dla siebie ;)

#Sennheiser #HD25 - legendarna konstrukcja, ktora jest juz na rynku od, UWAGA, 36 LAT (co prawda kiedys byly produkowane w Niemczech, potem w Irlandii, teraz w Rumunii, mam nadzieje, ze ich jakosc na tym nie upadla)!

Sluchawki, z ktorych od poczatku lat 90 korzysta bardzo wielu DJ-ow, rowniez tych najbardziej znanych, jak chociazby #Westbam

Dlaczego? Bo sa NIEZNISZCZALNE - a jak jakims cudem komus uda sie je zniszczyc to maja na tyle modulowa konstrukcje, ze wymiana elementow jest niezwykle latwa.

Kolejny plus - glosnosc. I nie, nie mowie tu o stereotypowym "jak glosno to znaczy, ze dobrze" - te sluchawki nie brzmia jakos ultra "wybitnie" w kontekscie jakosci dzwieku jako takiej (chociaz sa bardzo dobre i w tym), maja raczej neutralne brzmienie, dlatego nadaja sie na sluchawki monitorujace, ktore kazdy moze dopasowac jakims equalizerem pod siebie, ale przede wszystkim sa glosne, a to jest najwazniejsze dla DJow i wszelkiej masci realizatorow dzwieku, kamerzystow, itp.

Dwa najwazniejsze parametry:
1. Glosnosc: 120 dB
2. Pasmo przenoszenia: 16 Hz - 22 000 Hz (praktycznie cale pasmo slyszalne przez czlowieka)

I do tego wspomniana niezniszczalnosc - uslyszalem kiedys, ze gdyby zrzucic #gramofon #Technics #SL1200 #MK2 na czolg z drugiego pietra, to predzej zniszczony zostanie czolg niz gramofon - i podobnie jest z tymi sluchawkami ;)

@Mateusz to byl Twoj typ? ;)

# Technique, Technics, Technik, substantifs :
les mots à travers les dictionnaires du xixe siècle

#Technique, #technics, technik, Nouns:
Words through 19th-century Dictionaries

Marcos Camolezi

https://doi.org/10.4000/artefact.11313

This paper is aimed at a contribution to the intellectual historiography of the concept of technique. My results are founded on an extensive analysis of entries dedicated to the noun technique and its cognates in French, English and German dictionaries published in the 19th century. The core hypothesis consists in the idea that the association between the Greek word technè and technique (as well as “technics”, and “#technology” in its 20th-century meaning) has not been continuously transmitted over time: rather, such an association is an invention made in a relatively recent past. By taking into account that a tacit rule normalized the use of adjectives (technique, technical, technisch) and rejected the use of nouns (technique, technics, Technik) in the twilight of the 18th century, I shall argue that the lexicographical recognition of those nouns is linked to a growing historiographical and philosophical interest in them.

This interview by @savetz with Rick Reaser, published under the auspices of @ataripodcast, is well worth a listen!

Rick talks a mile a minute and drops in gems about how the first generation of #GPS satellites used a pair of 4-bit bit sliced ALUs as their CPUs (not dissimilar to the CPU design on the #CenturionComputer that Dave from Usagi Electric has been working on?) and the next generation of GPS satellites ("block II") used a radiation-hardened microprocessor from Texas Instruments.

Rick describes #Commodore64 computers being used at #Rockwell to run test harnesses for the GPS satellites.

He also describes pushing the #Atari8bit to the max of its capabilities for productivity tasks like #WordProcessing, #Database, #Spreadsheet and communications applications.

Terrific stuff.

¿Alguien sabe como desmontar el plato de un tocadiscos?.

En una mudanza al tocadiscos se le salió la correa, y así se ha quedado durante años.

Ahora que quiero poner a punto el equipo, miro videos de como quitar el plato pero no encuentro ninguno que tenga la pieza del adaptador de 45 rpm fija como este. He encontrado el manual de servicio pero yo no veo que se pueda sacar solo girando como se indica. Girar es para que salga o no el adaptador, pero no para sacarlo.

Added a Technics SL-P200 CD player to my cassette deck. Some bands I like are right between the cassette era and today when some are releasing on tape again. So here we are, welcome my friend. #technics #cdplayer #cd #cassette #offlinemusic #physicalmedia

Oh my god. I just found this amongst my old stuff from way back. This piece must be at least 30 years old.

Can't believe that I now sit here with my own son building something I built as a young boy. Getting all teary eyed ... :)

Ein schönes Gerät – und schade

Mein Technics SA-GX 390 läuft immer noch, und mit dem Radioempfang gibt es hier keine Probleme. Das darf auch gerne noch lange so bleiben
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
