@boxer12,

He is an interesting artist. Although I've kept my eye out for him, the only lp I own is "Hair". I've enjoyed it every time I've played it.
This lp cover has been staring at me for a week.. (""Not that there's anything wrong with that""

I decided it would be my last lp played today. Porcupine Tree "Lightbulb Sun"

Not bad...not bad at all...……...
Steve Earle "Ghosts of West Virginia"
Interesting, this record is in mono. I ( a buyer doesn’t know it until they see the record label).
I don't have a problem with mono, a buyer should know what they're getting before the purchase.
In this week...........

Joni Mitchell "Live @ Canterbury House - 1967"  triple lp/BG mastered
Charles Lloyd Quartet "Love-In" '67/sealed/pp/Atlantic
Laura Veirs  "Troubled By the Fire"  first time on vinyl
Uber,

That’s the one I bought, unless they got another in. I’m going to take a quick look.

No, that is the next version of the one I own.

I've owned my Hydra 4 & 6 for years. They are fantastic IMO. Like I mentioned earlier, I'm running all of my front end components through my 6 to the 8 right now. Plus I have an Akiko Triple AC Enhancer into the 6.

The 8 in my current scenario is wonderful. The main attributes so far are a full, and more complete soundstage. Everything just sounds right. No drawbacks at all.




@uberwaltz,

I think I misread your inquiry.

I'm a fan of passive AC conditioners. There are many popular products out there and are well regarded that use transformers. Products like the Niagra..... have you looked inside of one? All of the circuit boards/transformers.... then read user's comments regarding the noise they put up with after spending thousands. No way bro.

I've had several products in house that use earth minerals, man made crystals that absorb EMI/RFI that work very well with nothing to cause noise or break down.

This is where my $ will go.
@uberwaltz,

What you have there my friend is a white label promo (WLP). These are prized and bring more money. They were the first run, labeled white to send to radio stations for promotion.

As about an original pressing as one can get!


Common’ Uber

I love reading Eric’s posts. Don’t stop @bdp24 .

Frankly, I feel we are fortunate to have him here.
@uberwaltz,

The Hydra 8 made such profound difference in my system, that I made An offer on the V Ray.
A rarity.....King's Daughters & Sons "If Then Not When"

Expertly cleaned.
Interesting, the inner recording space is SO much more defined. A quality, I love!
Uber,

I saw them.... just wondered about what came before them. brother.

I'm taking deep breaths.......................

I love all of you........ let's try to make that our mantra.
Just pulled my two copies of "Can't Buy a Thrill" out of the Vibrato. One is a Speakers Corner re-master, the other is a pp re-issue. I'm sure because it isn't a black label ABC. The re-issue is on next. The other, maybe later tonight?
As a break in the conversation.... I talked to Mark Baker of Origin Live today and Johnnie 7 of audiooragami.

Trying, finally, to get my Rock 7 up and running again. Mark was pleasant, in the end couldn't help me with my tonearm issue. Johnnie, is quite a character. Very informative, very interesting to talk to. Gonna send my Funk Firm FXR to him for repairs.

@uberwaltz,

Do you talk this way on your threads?

Frankly I feel you owe us all an apology.
Hello @6t5-gto,

Radiohead seams to be a great place to begin again..............
