Your preamp looks like mine but I can’t figure out what that silver disc is on it. Is it part of it and we have different models? Or is it a separate piece you have laying on top?

That’s a 45 adapter I put there.

Do you have the original tubes on your preamp?

Ah makes sense. I thought it might’ve been a record clamp but it looked too small, 45 adapter makes a lot more sense.

Yeah, original tubes. What preamp is yours? Just wondering if we actually have the same one or if I’m losing it.

Yeah okay, same as me then.

I’ve considered upgrading the tubes but I’m not sure I’d notice the difference enough to warrant the cost. I’m currently thinking of upgrading speakers, but I also rarely have time to listen to records so maybe not. I also want to get some new coffee equipment, as that’s the only hobby I really have time to appreciate these days, but I also only recently got really into it so I’m not sure I should spend the money yet. Fun times…

I like the little ledge for the record being currently played, but what's the wire going to it?

Probably to power the "NOW PLAYING" light

Good call, I completely missed that. Even after zooming in. 🤦

OP usually does not have it lit in these photos. Likely because it sort of distracts from the album art, which is supposed to be the focus of these images.
