reubent,

Is your Yellow Submarine" on yellow vinyl? If so, I have it as well.
You're welcome Brian. I love it when others are appreciative for the right reasons.
reubent, bdp24,

I have the same lp. ."Remastered directly from the original master tapes without noise suppression or bass roll-off"... according to the lp jacket

Fremer is not in control. He almost gusshed over the Spanish SS phono amp
It’s Immaterial "Life’s Hard and Then You Die" pp. Talk about an 'open' soundstage?
Uncle Tupelo  "No Depression"

Bob Weir  "Blue Mountain"

Tanita Tikaram  "Closer to the People"

Lynyrd Skynyrd  "Gimme Back My Bullets"  (Friday Music)
Shelby Lynne "S/T" 2020. This lp really has some low bass response, SQ is great!
I'll try, since you mentioned Bob, check out "The Original Mono Recordings" box set (wonderful), + "Oh Mercy",

Suzanne Vega "Solitude Standing"
Chris Isaak (any)

Afraid to go much further without knowing your likes. Maybe another thread?


Wooden Wand "Briarwood", I actually like this one better than "Death Seat"

SQ is definitely better on Briarwood.
Traffic "John Barleycorn Must Die" United Artists/pp

I picked this very clean copy up at Carolina Soul"s brick & mortor store in Durham NC on the way to a concert years ago. Just US cleaned. Here's hopin'
@tomic601 ,

Those are all great ones. I saw The Teskey Brothers were going to be around my area this spring/summer.
Shelby Lynne again after its first US cleaning. Been optimizing azimuth to great effect.

Well I finally did it my friends. I installed my long planned wall isolation unit. Will post some pictures on my systems' page later on. Weeee doggies!
Well I actually it’s an isolation and decoupling unit in one.

I'm using some of your springs Geoff.
@uberwaltz,

I have 2 worn out Karat D3s that I'm planning on having rebuilt to go on my Vpi & Rock 7 @ some point for comparison now that I have them both set up on the same platform.
I freed up several desirable footers and platforms with this change. I'm certain to put a Symposium Ultra up for sale soon on USAM.
Regarding the effectiveness of the new set-up,....my washer is just 12’ away in another room. On all cycles, I have no noticeable disturbance with lp playback now.

Sonics are more soulful, increase tonality, openness without being at all harsh....my Trio doesn’t vibrate at all on loud bass info.
reubent,

It took me those two times to finally check it out. It's in my "wishlist".

How does your "City to City" sound? I put my MFSL copy in my "to sell" pile over a year ago. I've changed a lot since so I'm going to re-listen.
Father John Misty  "Pure Comedy". If you're a fan, you'll be happy with his latest. Very nice SQ.  (I find Sub Pop's QC to be spotty).
reubent,

I own "Too Long in the Wasteland" but that's it. I really love great live recordings!

If you haven't already, check out Ryan Bingham. His lps have some noisy pressing issues and are slightly bass heavy but I still enjoy them.
"LP5" sounded good the first time I heard it, but it is so much more enjoyable/meaningful now.
Well @tomic601 & @ uberwaltz,

This was my intention when I made the earlier statement. The Symposium Ultra / 24" x 19" was originally an amp platform as noted by the name tag on the long end. I’m the second owner. Has some cosmetic issues. Used under my TT for years, Comes with 3 Symposium couplers and a new factory shipping box.

For now, this is all I'm willing to part with.

Interested parties PM me.
