Arrived recently, 

The Delines "The Sea Drift" 

2022/El Cortez Records - Jealous Butcher Records

Hey Brian, 

I sent a PM. 

I was reading through my manual'. MC loading is resistive. MM  options are said to be capacitive. I think this is the standard. The loading "dock" area in back allows for two inputs with a r/l channel for each input. You can do 2 MC carts, two MM carts or one of each. The front panel button switches between input one and two .

 

 

The Delines "The Sea Drift" 

2022/El Cortez Records/Jealous Butcher Records 

just released!

Bee Gees "Spirits Having Flown"

2020/UMe/Capitol 

Their albums would have been greater if done as D2D.

 

Flag Day Soundtrack

again. 

Probably said it before but this lp is sooo good!

Glen Hansard "Between Two Shores"

2018/Plateau Records/ANTI-

Been a while since a Hansard fix

Glen Hansard "It Was Triumph We Once Proposed" 

the songs of Jason Molina 

2015/Overcoat Recordings 

Recommended!

Brian,

I am not using my 10 db boost now. I like it so far. Supposedly less noise?, the unit is pretty quiet anyway. Sounds more natural.

Jackson Browne "Hold Out"

1980/Elektra/Asylum 

This album sounds so good the more you turn it up!

Greg, .

It's a shame when you need to disclose all of the faults on a new record.

Marvin Gaye "What’s Going On"

2022/Tamla/Motown/UMe

Ok, there are two new versions featuring the Detroit Mix. The best is supposedly the version pressed at Precision, Kevin Gray mastering. This is that. It helps that I got  great deal on it.

My local friend and I both have the MFSL One-Step. He told me about this version with lots of love for it. Here we go ....

BTW, I like round records 

 

My quibbles about the Audia Flight are diminishing.

Ozark Mountain Daredevils "It'll Shine When It Shines" 

pp/A&M/Glyn Johns

Hey Bill,

Really think the adapters for the volume control that needed XLR to RCA, needed time to break in as well, and I’ve accounted for that in my mind. I splurged on the expensive Cardas. They are very short in length machined out of bronze then gold plated. Not low mass but solid connection.

"What’s Going On"

Side 3 & 4. One side stripped down, the other mono mixes

Sounds great BTW.

Just arrived,

ELO "Eldorado" MFSL /2021

Tool "Fear Inoculum" 2021/RCA box

Suzanne Vega "Close-Up Series" 

2022/Cooking Vinyl 

4lp book bound set

Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit "Georgia Blue" 

2021/Southeastern Records/Thirty Tigers/RSD

BTW, the phono stage is sounding great! Break-in is important on all components/parts!

Tool "Fear Inoculum"

2021/RCA /5lp box

This package is 5 lps with etching in side two of each lp. What a waist of an opportunity. What a waist of our resources!

So far sounding very good. Quiet vinyl. Not quite as analog sounding as my copy of

"Aenima". 

splitting hairs, but I Do do that on occasion.
