@dayglow there is a published article by Denny Dias on why Katy Lied sounds like crap because of a glitch in DBX noise reduction system |
@slaw I ordered it from Amazon about 9 days ago and it shipped, from Italy, to my door in about 6 days, kinda surprised me. The vinyl quality is disappointing |
@tomic601 ha, yeah, kinda all over the place. Testing out the new Degritter so listening to some vintage vinyl and new stuff Forgot Kraftwerk - Trans Europe Express - it fits right in! |
Colter Wall - Songs of the Plains - this is a reference album to me, incredibly well recorded and just another great one from this young genius Modern Jazz Quartet - Fontessa - Speakers Corner Henry Mancini - Pink Panther - Speakers Corner Willie Nelson - Red Headed Stranger - Impex - this is in my top 3 records in my collection. Excellent beyond belief Son Volt - Trace AC/DC - Back in Black - RL pressing Kenny Burrell - Midnight Blue - AP 45rpm |
@boxer12 nice one on the Butthole Surfers Steve Miller - Fly Like an Eagle - original Mofi |
@slaw it must have a lot to do with it? The machine is very quiet, I was surprised, the loudest thing is the drying fan and you can control the force of it. My other US sounded like a loud tattoo gun when running Beck - Sea Change - excellent - I am cleaning and testing a few of my high traffic albums |
@slaw it is - but it had surface noise I tried to reduce on the old US machine and it might have been worse after. Perfect now |
@slaw I got 10% off so it saved me a little bit but so far the results have been very consistent, which is what I couldn't seem to do on the DIY solution. And the bonus is it is stupid simple, which is good for a half wit like me. Just drop in the record and come back 7 mins later to a great record. Really cleaned up my OP of Nebraska, A LOT. At the moment I am have ZERO buyers remorse at the moment Jillian Welsh - Soul Journey - sounds fantastic after Degritter bath

Bill Evans - Live at Montreux - AP 45rpm - this may be the best sounding live Jazz record I own - stunning Alison Krauss and Union Station - Every Time you say Goodbye Mofi 33rpm Ben Webster - Gone With the Wind - ORG Tracy Chapman - S/T Black Pumas - S/T - Deluxe Edition Kenny Dorham - Quiet Kenny - AP 33rpm Fleetwood Mac - Rumors - AP 45rpm |
Johnny Cash - The Fabulous Johnny Cash - Impex - extremely good Holly Cole Trio - Don't Smoke in Bed - AP 33rpm - this record is incredibly well recorded and AP did an awesome job with it but the music is just awful. Awful. Couldn't make it through side 1. If I had not picked it up cheap I would take it back. Awful |
Johnny Cash - I Walk the Line - Mofi 45rpm - outstanding Vanessa Fernandez - I Want You - 45rpm - she is kinda like Patricia Barber to me, her music is not my cup of tea but holy hell is she recorded well. Vinyl is DEAD silent and the range on this record is huge, low lows and bright where it should be. Extremely well recorded, mastered and mixed. |
Continuing with some of the vinyl I picked up yesterday at the Austin Record Convention : Grandaddy - The Sophtware Slump on a wooden piano - have always loved the original album and this one is awesome except the clear vinyl is noisy on a sparse record so it stands out badly even after a run in the US cleaner. Buddy Holly - S/T - AP 33rpm - excellent |
B-52s - Mesopotamia EP Lester Young and Teddy Wilson - Pres & Teddy @slaw I picked up the Sade box set too. I used to own the first 3 records in original pressings but lost them in a break up and didn't get them back I figured this was a good way to get them all. First record sounds good, will do Promise next |
@reubent hey, sir I have been good, lots of distractions lately, not enough time in a listening spot but I have gotten in some listening the last few weeks. I got the newer reissues of the Band and Music From Big Pink 45rpm a while back. Always reminds me that they hold a special spot in your heart Beck - Sea Change - excellent in every way |
