But, I've been thinking about it and I just don't understand why so many people today want and use remote controls?
When I listen to gear reviews, I mean videos from my favourite reviewers, they talk about what I call remo cons and how necessary they are. Some others reviews of, I think it was the Decware tube amp for example, said it has no remo con. Like if that was a problem, and it seems many think it is..?

I think NOT having a remo con is a plus. Like when I bought a used CD player, I was glad that the remo con was gone (also means lower price). When I bought the Hegel DAC I was like "oh no it comes with a remo con", another thing that may get lost, maybe you even must have it for some functions..

Why do I hate remo cons?
1) They get lost.
2) They are ugly and just how ugly isn't a sofa table full of cheap black plastic remo cons?
3) Some modern gear have cheaped out on buttons on the gear and you must use the plastic little remo con for accessing some functions.
4) Real gear have real knobs. Using the knobs on well built gear is a pleasure!
5) You get lazy.
6) You get the urge to tweak volume and skip tracks. Just sit down and relax, take it easy, don't skip tracks, chose an album and a volume level and leave it alone!

In conclusion, another thing I love with Tandberg gear is (and most vintage gear), you guessed it - no remo cons!
Do yourself a favour, if you have a remo con lying around, put it away.

Today it came in by post, very good condition, outside no scratches, plays very well,  so inside also OK I think.

Gonna test it out later in the evening and this week.

Very happy with this new playtoy in my collectio 

Top of the line in the 20xx series, allready had a Tr2075 (mk 1)

I keep you informed later this week

Piet https://www.tandbergforum.com/forum/my-tandberg-setup/tr2075-mk2/ About Loudness - do you use it? https://www.tandbergforum.com/forum/my-tandberg-setup/about-loudness-do-you-use-it/ Thu, 25 Mar 2021 23:27:46 +0000 I have been thinking about the Loudness buttons lately. I used to always use them. However lately I have been tending to leave them off. In particular on my Huldra 10 (which is playing right now, with Loudness off) and my TR-1000. These are so fat sounding anyway even without Loudness. It may be a matter of speaker combining also, my Huldra 10 is playing through my newly renovated TL-5010's which are surprisingly bass heavy, it becomes a bit too much with Loudness sometimes.
Maybe also depending on room accoustics..?
It may also depend on the source, with the new Hegel HD25 DAC, which almost seems to boost low frequencies with a couple of dB I feel like leaving it off. Sometimes though, I miss the "meatiness" and and more forward sound with Loudness activated.

How do you use the Loudness button?
