@mammothguy54 for sure, keep in touch on that. Austin is not much of a diversion off I10 and likely a nice break Charles Lloyd and the Marvels - One Poem - Tone Poet Nathan Davis - Sam Records |
@sbank yes, I am up in Georgetown. Not sure how to send you a PM on this site? |
@bslon the black vinyl Sophtware Slump is excellent. It is so much better than the clear vinyl version it is amazing. I loved that record when it came out and played the hell out of it. I wish there were more copies of it on vinyl. @slaw dangit, I was at Waterloo Records today and totally forgot to look for Cake - Fashion Nugget!! Not sure why I just remembered that? |
@slaw thank you, Sir. Had lots going on and much of my listening I haven't jumped on the forum. Will try to be better about it. Peter Gabriel - Peter Plays Live - reissue - holy smokes I forgot what an amazing sounding live album this is. The soundstage is big and the low end is absolutely killer. I saw this tour, it was so great and this record brings it back. Not sure why I haven't listened to this album in so long?? |
Grandaddy - The Sophtware Slump on a Wooden Piano - I found a new copy on black vinyl today. I got a copy of the clear vinyl version of this and it is so bad, the vinyl was crazy noisy and for a piano and vocals it is bad bad bad. This version is 1000% better. Charles Lloyd - Forest Flower - at Monterey - Speakers Corner - unbelievably great recording - side 2 is a bit of free jazz but overall an amazing reference record |
@reubent dang, I was hoping it might just be my copy. It is a great record but damn near unlistenable. Guess I have to stay digital on this one.? |
@reubent how do you like that White Ladder box? My copy is ridiculously noisy |
@slaw did you get the Cake box set or just Fashion Nugget? After the discussion about the Talking Heads last night I was able to find a copy of Remain in Light on Rhino pressed in Germany. I typically hate the quality of Rhino's vinyl as it is often very noisy but this one is pretty decent. Low End is still rolled off kinda hard |
@bkeske if you can find the white (Vol 1) Tom Petty box set it is well worth it. I have all of them as an original pressing and picked up the box and they did a great job on the remastering and the vinyl is very very good. The Damn the Torpedoes from the box kills my O/P |
@sbank thanks a bunch, Sir It is a pretty phenomenal combo with the 12" Tonearm. Everything pairs up extremely well. Really happy so far and worth the delta between this and my last table |
Thanks, @mammothguy54 so far I am happy as a pig in poop I need to get that pressing of Speaking in Tongues. I collected T-Heads stuff for a number of years and my 2 O/P of Speaking in Tongues are not great sounding pressings. I will look for that pressing. Always bummed me how much they rolled off the low end on More Buildings and a number of their other albums. |
@slaw hey, sorry, lots going on at the house and keep getting pulled away. I got a Forte S by European Audio Team (EAT) and put a Kiseki Purple Heart on it. It sounds phenomenal and still have break in to do on the cart |
@big_greg I just spun the same Willie Nelson - I like it a lot! Really glad I picked up a copy. Kind of a weird follow up to Childish Gambino?? |
Justin Townes Earle - Single Mothers/Absent Fathers - such a great album and this copy is great Lyle Lovett - 12th of June - reference recording - stunning SQ Will Nelson - RSD - Live at Texas Opry House 1974 - really good show and the SQ is very very good Miles Davis - Seven Steps to Heaven - OP mono |
@slaw did you do anything new to your system recently? I have a room correction system in place on mine and it is a fairly amazing piece of gear |
@slaw hey, Sir How are you doing? Hope things are great? For you and everyone here. Listening more on Sat and Sunday mornings so haven't been posting as much here. |
@slaw I have the MFSL as well as US and Euro O/P and none of them sound great |
