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.

Hey @uberwaltz,
Are you here? |
Hi buddy,
My interconnects are from a fellow member:
Marcus Tunis
They are sounding superb. |
|
Isaac Hayes "Hot Buttered Soul" MFSL |
RCAs
So far (and really not very far) they are already far and away from my former anti-cables, in every way. Separation, soundstage, the feeling of being there....
So much more, I\'m sure.
I'm waiting for these to break in before I replace my phono cable. |
Uber,
I get it. If not for the accident, I'd not had this positive experience. Well worth it. |
|
|
Federale "All the Colours of the Dark"
I realize the irony..... |
@bkeske,
What TT are you using bro? |
Federale "The Blood Flowed Like Wine" |
@tomic601 ,
I'll get a "list" together.
Here's the US cleaning thread I've posted the most to:

@bgross,
Love Jason. Actually not in a dark mood, love The Dark Angels, I'm energized listening to them. Maybe that says something about me? |
I checked out much earlier than planned yesterday. Sounds like I missed out on lots of fun.

@mwinkc,
We sometimes don’t acknowledge new posters’ posts be as being significant...this needs to change. |
@tomic601 ,
I own a Track/UK/Quadrophenia and the Universal re-issue from over a decade ago. I think I’ve compared them before, just been too long ago to remember.
Thinking about it now, I seem to remember someone posting a while back, something like, Best pressing of Quadrophenia", I may have compared my copies there, FWIW. |
@bgross,
Thanks buddy....I'm an hour away from Durham. |
@tomic601 ,
I think you asked about, best pressing of PF "The Final Cut"? I own two domestics and the latest re-mastered version. I do need to compare. Just on memory, both sound good. The latest PF re-masters are of superior SQ IMO. Having said that, I do not own any PF UK/Harvest lps. I do own a UK/Harvest Dave Gilmour "S/T"
IMO, "The Final Cut" was always very underrated. |

Mark Knopfler "Privateering"
|
@bgross,
Not familiar with "Forward Children". Own most of M.C.Taylor’s output. Saw him live on tour with Tift Merritt's "friends" tour a couple years back. |
For any who paid attention to Dave Alvin's release of "Third Minds", the track "Dophins" was inspired by Fred Neil. |
Wow! My copy sounds fantastic! |
Uber,
That sure plays a BIG part on some lps. The most recent example I own is the difference between Neil Young's "Harvest Moon". I bought the original EU/1 lp copy. Now own the re-mastered dbl/lp copy. The difference is striking.
Someone posted here a few weeks ago about the newly re-mastered on 2 lps...Eric Clapton "Unplugged". Would like to hear it as I thought the original was somewhat of a demo disc. |

Jason Molina "Pyramid Electric Co." |

@uberwaltz,
Still haven't listened to my copy that was given to me. Based upon your impressions, I now know why it was given to me. |
Rush "Signals", "Grace Under Pressure", Fly By Night"
|
Just remembered, I own a UK "Radio KAOS"
Just very fortunate. |
Regarding Soundtracks... I have a op copy of Fred Neil’s soundtrack of "Midnight Cowboy" on the way....probably Monday? Looking forward!!!! |
Joe Walsh "The Smoker You Drink, The Player I Get" OP ....yes...this was my personal motto for a couple of decades. |

In another life, I use to race moto-cross.
At the time, I could only WISH I lived in California. The mecca! |

On Kicking Television! |
I hope I did not infer others weren’t acknowledged.
My last...The Watson Twins "Talkin’ to You..Talkin’ to Me" mastered by the late.great Stan Ricker.
I think I’m one of the few who are still on a 40 hour work schedule. |
Got the "Warm/Warmer" lp set on order. |
The above mentioned Vega lp is great. I'm addmittingly a big fan, but while this lp/s aren't THE absolute best for SQ, it just draws you in, constantly wanting to turn up the volume. In doing so, it sounds better and better. |
There’s another company, their name escapes me now, that had a brush on product that I was highly interested in at the time. |

@tomic601 ,
They are that good!! |
