Another experiment birthed out of my newfound midrange presence, been trying my Stillponts LP1 after years of it’s sole purpose, sitting on top of my phono-pre. I had written earlier regarding the use of weights or clamps and using them with or without the MyMats. I’ve been using three MyMats for quite a while on my VPI and still enjoying that. Trying now with the LP1 and without, so far, more often than not, I’m liking the LP1 but it is lp dependant. So, easy enough to put it on while playing to hear differences

Honestly, most people are in the "don't like camp" when it concerns Dave Matthews.

This "Live" box.......SQ is awesome! More over, the musicianship is perfect.

What else is there to say?
I have two dedicated lines to my listing room.

One for front of end components , one for the other.

Been streaming Mary Chapin Carpenter/The Dirt & The Stars.

Sounds wonderful! I have the vinyl in now. Should be awesome!

Another lp arrived today from the UK, as a result from streaming.

Don't know if any of you were aware that Lucinda Williams had a stroke last November and while she didn't incur any brain damage, she's had to relearn things including playing the guitar again. Supposedly out on tour with Jason Isbell this summer?....
Well I have all of Doug on Reference Recordings and now this AP album.

I think this my be my favorite, but to be sure I'd have to take a half day to relisten sometime.
Another arrival:

Lucinda Williams "Essence"
Lost Highway/2016/EU

When I read about Lu's illness, I decided to acquire all of her lps I did not own. Essence is a goodun'. It has at least 5 songs that are on her excellent Live lp.

Ordered a week ago, from EU and it arrived today. Now that's service!
Jim James / Live Acoustic set from KVRX/included as a bonus lp in the latest "At Dawn" 20th Anniversary release

Got another pair of headphones today. LSA HP-3 Nova. Really great out of the box!
