Or the guy is so hardcore he shaved his head so the headphones would fit better.
Who shaves their hair for better performance? Soldiers and Audiophiles!

Mikey likes Schiit's ugly turntable.
Addendum: Fremer going into the intricacies of setting up the table make me very thankful that I am digital only.

Come now. Either of us have the intelligence and innate skill to do what he described in the article. For me, I'm not interested and I'm lazy.

I'm not interested in such shenanigans, and I have the dosh to pay someone.
At the moment, I just want a turntable of any sort. $1000 is out of question. I just need something that can play vinyl that I can hook up to my home stereo.
A few months ago, I consolidated the vinyl I've accumulated over the past 40 years into a single location. Appropriately, in the bureau upon which sits my stereo. It's not much, probably 100 albums (or album sized singles) and a few less 45rpm singles. Many of these are albums I do not own on CD, thus I haven't listened to them in any format in decades in some instances. It would be a lot cheaper for me to buy an inexpensive turntable than to try to replicate the vinyl on CD.
So, knowing my tolerance for less than audiophile sound via turntable is probably extremely lower (maybe I should say "greater" because I will accept lower quality sound for vinyl, at least for the foreseeable future) compared to you guys, how cheap should I go? My wallet says as low as possible. However, if a $100 craigslist turntable is markedly better than the one below, I could make that jump.

That's the one we bought for the back room. It works well.

Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
The new firmware is said to be in newer Modi Multibits since mid-2018 so if you have gotten it after mid-2018 you most probably will already have the latest firmware If you are still unsure, you will need to open up your Modi Multibit to see if there are any sticker on your firmware chip (old...

OK, so due to a fire at the AKM plant in Japan, which manufactures Delta Sigma DAC chips and a bunch of other stuff, Jason Stoddard is now saying that the Modi Multibit is no longer cancelled. The MM doesn't use AKM DAC chips.
