@spiritofradio,

Regarding CSN couch lp. I'd be willing to send you my BG mastered copy to hear if you'd like?
Earl Wild
Rachmaninoff: Piano Concerto No. 2
The Royal Philharmonic
Joscha Horenstein, Conductor

Chesky Records
A beautiful record!!!
I didn’t realize they were associated with TSNZ until recently. I have one of their lps.
Just arrived......

Jimbo Mathis/Andrew Bird "These 13"

This may interest you @reubent ?
@millercarbon,

I just wish you didn't find it within you to use this thread to deneigrate a former poster.

Brian, I had 3 Nobsound pods under my phono preamp which was already supported by my prior spring/shelf setup. Probably not the best way to compare. I couldn't tell I heard a substantive difference although the SQ wasn't affected negatively in that arrangement. 

BTW, the ADD/POWR plug-ins ain’t no snake oil.

Checked w/ my Alpha Labs line EMI meter. Down over 200 Mv. with these plugged in. This is a significant sonic upgrade.

Unlike the High Fidelity MC.o2 plug-ins, these work well with the PPT stuff.

I see two more in my future.
Last time I played "Ten Summoner’s Tales" (EU), I was very impressed.
BTW, don’t see The Decemberists mentioned here often, The King is Dead is such a wonderful album and sounds wonderful as well. Recommended!
@noromance ,

I played that one (pp) twice in a row a while back and enjoyed it.

Jim,

That’s one thing I need to do at some point. Are you soldering in new ones or using inline RCA resistors to try first.

Thanks for the info on Jimbo, Tom.

Andrew Bird "Weather Systems"
I’ve realized I’m way behind on his output, gonna try and remedy that.
...........................................................

Changed the water in the Vibrato. Always a good feeling..............

(Scratch Andrew Bird until later, he needed a deeper clean.)

Up now Fruit Bats "The Pet Parade"
Well, as much as I love Joni, I just wasn't in that mood tonight. However, will be through another clean.

The Notting Hillbillies "Missing...Presumed Having a Good Time"
All of this Joni! Gonna put on my "Live @ Canterbury House - 1967". From her Archives, 3lp set. @bkeske, This was prior to her studio lps. Wonderful!! considering her early poise, vulnerability and willingness to share her talent.
Thanks @gsal for your recommendation. I checked it out and ordered it. Beautiful!
Brian,

I know it’s early on, ......

I just haven’t heard the normal "hell yeah" on each and every record so far .

I felt you were too early on in trying tube dampers. Let the Trumpet be itself for 100 hours.




Jim,

Good to read your priorities are now in order.

Let's me know your thoughts process is well.
"The Yes Album"
Friday Music
45rpm box

@mammouthguy54  @big_greg  you won't be disappointed with this.
BTW, the Rock 7 has been on the sidelines for far too long,...two years? I had the Funk Firm FXR arm rewired with Audio Note silver in a continuous run.

Been waiting for something like this OL motor package to show up.
Delaney & Bonnie "On Tour...." lp from Speakers Corner

I've wanted this lp for decades. Glad I waited to get this copy. Hope it fulfills.
