Radio Rentals version, It charges you every time you play a record a prints a receipt.
Tally man comes round once a week to update the book, collect the cash and sneer at your record collection.
Lol !
EMI factory disk defect detector. Part of their quality control at the Hayes Plant. Interesting the cart reads against the groove, clicks and pops ‘read’ in this way are then plotted and printed out. No one bothers with this kind of thing today.
For anyone wishing to really nerd out
What a piece of history. Love it.

I wonder why you had to leave the power on. Volatile memory presets perhaps ?
I’ve always been curious about the Goodmans Axiom 80, SO much comment online how they are the best full-range driver ever but not much of people who actually own them or measurements. Seem to have a certain aura which means they are uber collectable so £££.
They are very fast, they don’t play up too high - the real win is in the mid range.
Popped over there today. The place only opened a week ago. The system sounded lovely but the place was quite busy with a family occupying the sweetspot sofa so I decided to go back in the week when it’s a bit quieter if I can and have a chat with the owner and get some decent pics of the equipment in use. Those valve amps in particular look very tasty.
Update soon hopefully.
Lots and lots of push-pull 2A3s ?
Im pretty sure that they are Kora Cosmos monoblocks

TBC when I next visit
OK. 6AS7Gs then, each of which is two sort-of-2A3s in one bottle.
That’s a lot of triodes.
Nice film
