So I started watching Netflix series "Captive State" and in the home of one of the characters there's this vintage looking changer TT in a small console I cannot recognise. Any clue?

Its a Garrard 3000/AT5. Its like the ones in the Sylvania Exponent 4/40s and the KLH sets.

Thanks for clearing this up! Now I can watch the series and focus on the plot instead .

KLH Model Twenty or Model Twenty-Four phono system. Has a Garrard 3000 record changer with a custom made Pickering cartridge in it. These were extremely popular all throughout the 60’s and revolutionized the compact stereo market, made in Cambridge Mass. They show up in a lot of movies (there’s a shot of one skittering across a record in the movie SE7EN).

Oh, that's a hard one . Cantilever looks a bit crooked though...

My favorite use of a record player in a movie was in Warm Bodies. It wasn't just that it was there. It was what the Zombie said about it.

I was also surprised to see one in Oblivion.

And apparently you can still get tube amps in the 23rd century.

they just 3D print them.

Correction. They replicate them.

HAHA! That actually made me literally laugh out loud. Thanks for that.

Spotted in the Netflix series "Queen" (good one):
A turntable and nice McIntosh amp. Can the turntable maybe be a VPI of some sorts?

Yes, that's a VPI Prime 21 with a VPI Shyla (AT) cart.

And a damaged headshell seemingly!

3D Fatboy arm?

Good eye. I wonder if the damage is why it's a prop or if it happened because it's a prop.

3D Fatboy arm?

It's the JMW-10 3D Gimbal.

Here is a pic I took of some thriller movie I found on Tubi TV, one of those old European style assassin or gangster films.
I honestly can't remember the name of it but somewhere 1977-79 ish. Definitely a bit disco.

But this club seemed fairly legit, I think it was in Germany or Italy.
Can't really make out too much but maybe someone can tell. Doesn't look like Technics to me.
