@uberwaltz,
I should have mentioned it earlier when I inquired about your TT motor power supply....it may be something you'd want to check on once in a while...Kevin @ K&K Audio has had a motor controller under development for a few years now, his personal TT is a Nottingham.

@slaw My MOFI copy of Abandoned Luncheonette that I purchased from Discogs was advertised as "NM-", but didn't quite live up to that. It does sound really good for the most part, just not as clean and quiet as the "new" one I picked up yesterday. That one plays like new and sounded great. |
@big_greg,
My personal experience on Discogs has sadly been mostly negative. I've had better luck on ebay.

Janis Joplin "I Got Dem Ol’ Kozmic Blues Again Mama!". My copy is Speakers Corner but as good as it sounds, my suspicion is most copies will sound VG. I give the SP a solid 10!
If you have a home alarm w/ glass breakage sensors, turn them off.

@ uberwaltz: I totally agree that Gretchen Goes To Nebraska is King's X' finest album and just wish they would remaster it to bring up the bass a bit more and lower the compression. |
I got tired of listening to all the debate over what system element is degrading the sound, so I got rid of my system and just hired a band to play all the music I want to hear. This way, I can yell at the musician directly instead of some audio dealer or manufacturer if I don't like what I am hearing.
Get rid of the middleman, I say! |
Patty Griffin "Servant of Love" SQ=EX |
Donna The Buffalo "Tonight, Tomorrow & Yesterday" & "Dance In The Street" |
@slaw huge Patty Griffin fan but didn't realize some of her stuff was on vinyl. 1000 Kisses is, IMHO, one of the top 5 records of the last 20 or so years.
Just got back from Chicago and Wisc and while in Chicago bought a few goodies at Music Direct, great people over there, I recommend it. Earlier Elvis - 24 Karat Hits on AP 200g 45rpm vinyl, absolutely awesome. I was hoping they would reissue it on 33rpm but tired of waiting Mark Knopfler- The Road Wherever - holy smokes if that ain't a reference record, amazing SQ On now: REM - Lifes Rich Pgent - Mofi - I have been looking for a copy of this record that wasn't stupidly priced. $30, sold Next Genesis - Lamb Lies Down on Broadway - reissue on 180g |
@6t5-gto,
I ordered "1000 Kisses" at the end of the year record sale I mentioned but they were out. Glad to hear that about M Knopfler, it will be ordered. I own the APO "24 Karat Hits" @33rpm/stereo/mono from years ago.
Donna The Buffalo "Dance In The Street"...highly recommended!
|
Getting ready to start...
Beth Hart "Live @ The Royal Albert Hall" 3lp set ………………………………………………….. Well I was really looking forward to the B Hart lp, sadly, record 1 had a defect so I'm not going to waist time cleaning the entire set. We'll see how Music Direct treats me with this return. The SQ 1s wonderful!
|
Portugal The Man "Woodstock"
This is kind of an experimental lp for me. @nutty mentioned it 1 year or two ago and I liked the song he posted. I saw the lp @ oldies for little to nothing, so I scooped it up.
