wonder who knows that story....
i understand that basically its true...
that album was responsible for the new designation for an album...
it caused the creation of the platinum album...because it sold so many copies....
kinda outgrew the gold...

I got one just like it Joe. I have contemplated keeping it on my Rek O Kut and adding another arm in the back but I wouldn't even know where to begin. I know that it would need to be about the same length.

I think your pretty much stuck needing a 12” effective length tonearm for that ROK

I haven't measured the length but it won't be long now. I have to get it into the shop before more snow flies. Is that a weird hard to find length? I'll have to think it over, but it would be nice to have a modern-ish arm but I don't want to get rid of the coffin arm just yet. I think it would look great in a.... LIME GREEN :)

Just need the specs on the arm to get the spindle to pivot distance.

Here is a quick review on my table.

I have a ROK CVS16, actually a clone of the Technics SL series, made in China by Hanpin. Three speed, aluminum “pie pan” platter with direct drive, crummy tonearm with no VTA adjustment, “outrigger” anti-skate. Switch for reverse rotation and vertically recorded (Edison diamond discs) records. Not really pleased with it, but plays almost any record (not 16 2/3 though). Plays 16” records, I have five in my collection.

In retrospect, I should have gone with one of the original ROKs, and look for a cutting lathe to go with it (for the hell of it).

I scored the original Rolling C-7 Console for it too. These usually got tossed so it's rarer than the table.
