Rosanne Cash "She Remembers Everything". First US clean.

between a woman and a man....." |
( All of my components were on "killer" platforms, for years.)
Think about it.
Decoupling |

Sorry people but I feel the need to impose my experience here..
We all, or most of us have experienced the positive effects of aftermarket platforms/footers that seemingly improve SQ. This improvement may help certain issues one has at the expense of ultimate SQ. Mostly, this type of "help" is referred to as isolation. Isolation isn’t bad but it does not "never" take the place of (decoupling). An effective isolation product can dramatically decrease resonances/vibrations and still impart a pleasing sonic signature, but these devices do not replace decoupling from the very (first) issue you’re trying to erase.
My recent wall mount is a great way to explain this.
I have found for years the great effectiveness of the use of carbon fiber in handling the resonances that audio frequencies project. Still, this is not the "great" solution to all thing audio. But it is a great platform on which to go forward.
Some of you may have noticed that even though I have much $$$ invested in the BDR shelves on my new wall mount, it is because of my belief/experience that components coupled to BRD have superior sonic qualities. This is a great start.....not the end-all.
I knew, by experience that "decoupling" from outside nasties, whether it be floor borne, or acoustic feedback or a washing machine, or the very low frequency grinding of the earth’ plates, needs to be addressed.
Isolation just isn’t the answer. Decoupling is the best answer we have.
We need to have a accumulative knowledge on the difference between these two commonly thrown around terms that aren’t the same.

Never enjoyed Television ":Marquee Moon" more that I'm currently hearing. |
@tomic601 ,
Thanks buddy! |
Playing Blue Moon Swamp again.

@drrsutliff ,

My system is sounding really good!!! The new phono cable really is performing wonderfully!
|
Yeah Tim. I thought I had informed you all when it was released?
|
John Fahey "America" 4MWB |

Prednisone is a miracle drug. Tried it? |
|
Been listening to sides 3 & 4 of Down the Road Wherever
Mark Knopfler. Very, very good!!!
|
|
Chicago "Transit Authority"
One of my all time favorite records.
@mammouthguy54,
Playing the Rhino...................
I own the MFSL (original) and this Rhino reissue. |
This phono IC has the ability to make any well balanced system sound better.

@nicks25,
Insurance only paid for therapy twice a week. I didn't want to end up with a "frozen shoulder". They don't tell you this prior to surgery. I then did my exercises for a year. Necessary.
|
Toad the Wet Sprocket "Dulcinea" |

Merle Haggard "Serving 190 Proof" sealed/"sample copy"

@tomic601
I've only used an antenna. Refused cable. |
I Will not pay for Sh t I have no interest in |
Beth Orton "Weather Alive"
2022/Partisan Records
|
@noromance ,
I understand the differences, yet I still enjoy |
Chuck Prophet "Soap & Water" 2007/Cooking Vinyl |
How's the Sota sounding Jim? |
@bkeske,
If you remember, I got all of the Norman Greenbaum lps (WLP) this year. They all sound mighty fine. |
"Phoenix" is one of my all time favorites!
|
Hey @uberwaltz,
If you're interested in a sealed Alison Krauss "So Long, So Wrong" on MFSL , I can give you the address? This is a great sounding pressing! |
Steve Martin & The Steep Canyon Rangers "Rare Bird Alert" |
Jim,
Wish her a speedy recovery from all of us who feel like we know her here. |
Navasota "Rootin’" WLP
This record is just pure rock ’n’ roll with a slight twang to it. Actually the lead singer reminds me of early John Fogerty. Donald Fagan, Jeff (Skunk) Baxter, Walter Becker all are represented here as contributors. Great SQ. |
Courtney Barnett "MTV Unplugged" |
|
spirit,
"Homecoming" is another favorite of mine.
BTW, ordered all of the Federale lps I don't have this week. |
Dust "S/T" Kama Sutra/early 70’s
I’m sure someone turned us on to this band here....might have been @730waters,
Early psych. I remember this label from my formative years
Great SQ!
|
Merle Haggard "Serving 190 Proof". SQ is wonderful. song craft is wonderful. |
BTW, Bob Welch shouldn't be considered a guilty pleasure. |
William & McEuen (presents "Will The Circle Be Unbroken"
3lp/United Artists/1972 if I'm reading my Roman numerals correctly.
This was a gift from brother @tomic601 . Never knew of it's existence until now |
|
|
New Riders of The Purple Sage "The Adventures of Panama Red" |
Tom,
Another favorite of mine. |
@reubent,
Tom, I love it!. I think I posted a little about it last weekend. She brings in a few guests and the SQ is probably the best of all her lps I own. She is just a fabulous artist. |
Hey Jim, start with another one or two of her lps before the MTV Unplugged. |
