My 33 year-old daughter knows me so well. I thought there’s no way she could beat last year’s gift: ![BFE](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/7/0/70abe110dc430446b573d7e5babe48ca1de9bcfe.jpeg) But just wait until you see this - an audiophile’s DREAM: ![TTT-cover](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/f/3/f340f89a4599cc6022020266e434273840886874.jpeg) Says so right there on the back of the package: ![TTT-back](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/f/1/f185fae549ce04f882c425d021ea41d803820059.jpeg) And here it is - eat your heart out you fans of Mcintosh, Luxman, VPI - this is your DADDY: ![TTT-TT](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/e/f/efa0528300ef7140990b73fb4404224262d28584.jpeg) Of course the tone-arm swivels and the dust cover lowers. It comes with 3 (count 'em) records ![TTT-records](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/7/4/74bd647cdb57b6e50856608779cfb6112eddea05.jpeg) You might think this is cheap because when it plays, the platter doesn’t turn on its own - but ye of little faith listen up because each record plays its own music - there are magnets on the back that tell the turntable which tune to play. ![TTT-magnets](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/a/1/a1bd283c4820fd536d19e0956f0612b40fc1b6f9.jpeg) All you do is turn the disk (handling by the edges of course) a revolution and it plays that song. The 70s funk is the best. I recorded all 3, but this forum won’t allow you to upload mp3 - some \*&@!$ audio forum this is - I even tried to convert it to 192/24 FLAC and no luck. Oh well, you just have to trust me that the quality is exquisite! Now to figure out where to put it in the audio room where the rest of the stuff won’t get in the way. Oh, almost forgot - there’s an instruction manual that comes with that has oodles of great information, like: ![TTT-info](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/e/1/e19df66ad6675490e66af7a33a94965f3a80a0aa.jpeg) ---

That’s awesome - congrats on a great gift!! Maybe you should start a new “What’s spinning…?” thread 😊 I bet Degritter has an ultrasonic cleaner that will ensure you hear all that your discs have to offer! ---

Looks like the designer was heavily influenced by ca. 1970 Duals. 😉 ---

It might have been the only turntable picture available in China. ---

I got my dad a sword from a site called [katanasword](https://www.katanasword.is/), and it’s been a fantastic gift! The craftsmanship is exceptional, with intricate details that reflect its rich cultural heritage. It’s not just a sword but a symbol of respect and admiration for my dad’s interests and our shared appreciation for Japanese history. He loves it and it honestly makes my heart full of joy. ---

As usual I’m late to the party… Did you mention that it comes with stickers, too! I bet they make the music sound better, just like stickers on cars make them go faster! 😜 ---

Yes, the stickers are really important. The one thing I’m still concerned about a year later: I dearly love my daughter and her generosity in giving gifts. But I am also worried that since it clearly has the word “audiophiles” on it, that she definitely spent **way too much money**. We all know from experience that she did. But my grandkids don’t seem to have gone without too much this year, so I guess everyone is OK. ---

Forever the conundrum… A second helping of franks and beans for the kids, or the next audiophile upgrade. Such is the life for us blessed with but humble means. ---

Franks and beans? Wow, you sure splurge on non-audio extravagances. ---

Yes, and including those who had no idea at the time that they were becoming a dad. ---

Great photo Ron. Spent the day with my daughter. Great fun. You are also rocking that titanium Panerai. Can you get me one of those?
