The Beatles "Yellow Submarine Songtrack 

1999/EMI/yellow vinyl 

Great SQ!!

 

Brian, the face plates are reminiscent of Pass. Hope they sound incredible!!

Not sure about that Tim? In any case, I enjoyed that lp tonight, more than before.

The Beau Brummels "Volume 2"

1981/Line Records/Germany/pp 

Amazing SQ!

Loreena McKennitt "To Drive the Cold Winter Away" 

1987/Quinlan Road Limited

Pretenders "Hate For Sale" 

Started remembering Chrissie last year and bought her Dylan lp. I was mightily impressed. Since streamed other titles. Some good stuff there.

Hey @bkeske, 

My original EU pressing of Little Village has reference quality sound.

Forgot to mention, I bought a couple of 1st generation PPT Omega mats. I know of their companies effective products Been using their Omega + E Mats in my fuse box. Started a process of pasting with their original product. All made a noticeable improvement.

Using one mat above and below the SMc Audio amp. Additional transparency.

Just arrived, 

Lucinda Williams "Ramblin' On My Mind" 

2020/Smithsonian Folkways Records

@dayglow ,

I have Wish You We're Hear & The Stranger & Leftoverture but haven't listened in too long.

Joanne Shaw Taylor "The Blues Album"

2021/Keeping The Blues Alive Records

Some of her albums have become available on vinyl in the last few years. This is her latest. Should be great.

...................................

first Little Village cover I've heard.

Easy, no contest, the Friday Music version prevails here. I believe the pp sounds superior to the CBS version.

New music arrived, 

Dusty Springfield "Dusty in Memphis" 

2011/AP/45rpm 

 

Patricia Barber "Higher" 

2020/Impex/45 rpm 

 

Calling Cadence "S/T" 

2022/hi-res records/AAA/Kevin Grey/RTI

The positive increase in midrange presence and overall openness I’m hearing after the last several changes I made over the last several months, have me adjusting my sub settings again. This has never failed. Anytime I have a significant upgrade in SQ, I always benefit from addressing the sub settings.

The PPT paste sounds amazing. Along with it and the Omega + Mats, I’m listening at much lower volume now, Around 9:00, whereas use to be at least 10:30. Pretty amazing  The OL belt  and the Townshend Pods. Seems like everything is working together.

I was listening to the Mark Knopfler album while adjusting. I’m hearing another layer of his voice now that never seemed present before.

 

 

Lu is doin’ some real nice interpretations here in her unique style.  Great SQ.

 

 

Don't remember who mentioned The Green Pajamas but thanks! Thoroughly enjoying this.
