@bkeske,
Brian, this B&N exclusive is mastered by Chris Bellman, so I'm hoping for good things. Noticed Acoustic Sounds will be releasing it soon using the Plangent Process. Hope I didn't pull the trigger too soon?
|
Thanks for the heads up on John Prine/Oh Boy! site James. |
Camel "Mirage"
Deram/1974/EU

Johnathan Wilson "Gentle Spirit" |
Joni Mitchell "Song to a Seagull"

"Song to a Seagull" is absolutely beautiful!!!! Great depth/clarity. |
|
Joni Mitchell "Clouds"
From the box |
Brian,
I guess the reason you needed a new headshell would be for quick swaps. I understand your reasoning. I guess @noromance is suggesting using your current headshell for the most direct comparison of the two carts.
BTW, After listening to the first two lps from the Joni Archives box, I can highly recommend it!!!! |
Never mounted it brother. I’m figuring it’ll be easier to mount it on my Townshend Rock 7 (with the extra stuff required for the damping trough), since it has threads |
Brian,
Gonna be sending my Sussurro back soon. Thought about mounting my Zephyr * MIMC ES as the replacement but will most likely mount my as new Shelter 501 MkII to start with on the VPI.
Gotta replace the headshell leads as well.🤨 |

Grateful Dead "Skull & Roses"
Barnes & Noble exclusive

This is why we need to constantly hear/evaluate our system. |
My Morning Jacket "It Still Moves"
2021/Anniversary/box |

An enjoyable 7.5 stars for this entire pressing. |
|
You and me @reubent, just like old times. |
@6t5-gto,
Sorry your On Every Street sucks .
All my copies of are great. Got the original UK, the one off BG, the one from the initial box. |
|
James, it seems you're always there. |
Made an adjustment to my Ushers from my memory of my music friend' system to the positive |
|
Joni Mitchell "Ladies of the Canyon"
from the box |
Joni Mitchell "Blue"
from the box |
It gets my highest recommendation! SQ is superb! High quality vinyl to boot . |
|
Been listening to Soular Energy at my friend's house..... Fantastic! |
|
That Eels record is one I don't have Tim. How would you compare it to others? |
Brian,
Nice to have you listening/posting all day long. Reminds me of someone I know. |
St. Paul & The Broken Bones "Live"
dbl/lp/45 rpm/RSD
I have the studio lp and never play it because it’s too digital. My hope is for this one to shine. Great music! |
Mine is the 33rpm on red vinyl. Pure Audiophile. There is a 45rpm version......must be fantastic.
Also, the piano is killer!!! |
Frankly, my friend's system sounds better than mine now, so trying to play catch up.
This is what's so great about having a music friend!!!! I love learning, although learning is associated with understanding what's going on. I understand.
|
|
Jim, I helped set up my music friend's speaker/sub set-up today and WOW! I've never heard that album sound so good. It puts about everything else to shame. I commented to him that I wished we hadn't listened to it now because everything else sounds inferior.
|
Pieta Brown "One And All" |
|
|
BTW, Welcome @starwarrior |
I knew you were out there James. |
That Purpleheart had been on my short list for some time, then a fellow member reminded me of the Van den Hul Frog. That seemed to provide more of what I might want at the price range. Having said that, I'm very satisfied with my Sussurro Mk II |
