Both Journey lps I played sound Killer!. And to boot, they are re-issues. |

The Beta Band
You all NEED to get their output!!! |
Look a few posts above Tim |
Uber,
If I felt confident enough in decipherring your post, then and only then, could I answer. |
@tomic601,
I beat you by 3 hours. First time working in 5 months!
....................................
Up now the latest "Goats Head Soup" re-mastered at Abbey Road, I got the 2 lp version. Vinyl looks great. Will report on it as I listen. |
Steve Gunn "Way Out Weather"
Mark Kozelek "Rock "N" Roll Singer"

A rare appearance by @puffball08,. Cool,! |
OK, I’m two/thirds through "GHS" lp 2
Interesting how these out-takes are more dynamic.? Love it!!!
Lp 2 is extremely enjoyable! |

Brian,
One thing I finally worked out with my new wall decoupling system is I now have my two tt’s on the same platform for easy comparison.
Of course, my Trio allows for two phono inputs.
VTA on the fly is a nice item. In precise thinking, anytime you raise/lower your arm, it does affect VTF.
My Funk Firm arm has manual VTA and it really isn’t a big deal. |
|
Grant Lee Buffalo "Fuzzy" again...such a great record. |
Hey fellows! I installed two new springs under the (heavy side, VPI) of my wall system today. They have a higher load rating of around 18 lbs each more than the other side. Initial impressions are very positive. The music seems to break free of the electronics/speakers even more, there is more depth, and increased transparency. Good stuff. |

@tomic,
Happy experimenting. I like what you're doing. |
Pulled out my copy of "Tusk". It’s a period pressing (pp), back cover says printed & manufactured in England. This may just be the jacket, I don’t know. Put it in the cleaner for a fresh clean. |
Putting "Tusk" on now. Upon closer inspection, "Mastered by Capitol" in the dead wax. I guess that answers any questions. |
Colosseum "Daughter of Time" ABC/Dunhill/WLP |
@tomic601 ,
Saw the slab...nice! If you weren’t aware, I’m a frustrated woodworker..Have the equipment...don't have the time... |
Jade Imagine "Basic Love" |
Got 3 Federale lps in this week, working on them now. |
@uberwaltz,
Will clean and re-listen soon...brother.
...........................
Out of the two Federale lp I’ve opened, both are warped. I’m confident "Music From ’La Rayar’" is playable.
Put it on and the Sussurro is a champ! |
|
@tomic601,
I know you can't see it, but on my amp/stand/platform, I did that very thing. It all locks in nicely. A great feeling. |

@tomic601 ,
BTW, if you end up using springs for your amp platform, the final solution is to recess them 1/8" into the platform. Access to a drill press helps as it has repeatable depth stop. |
Always loved "Moonflower" for the music. I wore out the cassette. I own a pp and a WLP. It's been years since I listened but my memory is SQ isn't the best. Need to do a fresh clean/listen. |
Uber,
That's the very reason I've invested in the equipment I own.
"One Stop Shop"
With this equipment and a daily dose of Duloxetine, I'm good bro. |

Joan Shelley "Electric Ursa"
Highly recommend!! |
Chet Atkins/Mark Knopfler "Neck & Neck" OP/CBS/ultra thin vinyl |
@boxer12,
Glad you love it brother. I meant to check in to see if you had it yet.
You're reaction still has me smiling! |
@uberwaltz,
Just realized my former mentioned, WLP copy of "Moonflower" is actually a gold-stamped promo/ with a dj timing strip. Maybe the same thing? |
Now playing ,"Moonflower" |
James,
You staying up a while? |
Allah-Las "Worship the Sun"
|
Good Morning @uberwaltz,
I’d challenge you to play a cut off of "Moonflower" ,then play s cut off "S,/T" then report.
Thanks for putting up with me. |
@uberwaltz,
I find "Moonflower" to be hyped up and not as analogy as Santana's earlier output. |
I agree with @boxer12 that sides 3)4 are superior. (Moonflower) |
@uberwaltz,
Wow, thank you brother. That means a lot! |
Federale "The Blood Flowed Like Wine" |
|
Brian,
Regarding any future thinking on cartridges, your first mention of SoundSmith is solid!
Additionally, whatever arm you use will require a specific amount of lead-shot under the arm board to counter-balance the overall weight/level.
If you need lead shot, I have plenty.
