Steve, that is my first Arlo LP I ever bought, and may be my favorite.
Man, it sounded really great.

Szell conducts Sibelius - Symphony No. 2. Concertgebouw
That’s like your personal musical version of Charlie’s Angels!
😁 That, IMO, is the best recorded and performed Sibelius No. 2 Spencer. Also a great LP to check out the new PC’s. A great recording for 1965, but not ‘perfect’, (like, let’s say, compared to Ray Brown’s Soular Energy), so any differences could be exposed. And it did just that. Immediately sounded more detailed and refined vs the slight veiled presentation with my old PC’s. Well, I guess it’s not quite as veiled as I thought actually. Fun with cables.
Looking forward to more improvements while burning in.

Congrats on the new phono stage @rvpiano. Such an important part of the analog chain.

Been sampling lots of Qobuz stuff the last few days, many based on suggestions from many here:
Joan Shelley (The Spur, S/T, Like The River Loves The Sea)
Father John Misty (Chloe, God's Favorite Customer)
Sarah Jarosz (Blue Heron Suite)
Joss Stone (Soul Sessions Vol2)
Flaming Groovies (Shake Some Action)
Brian Jackson (This is...)
Jack Johnson (Meet The Moonlight)
Strand of Oaks (In Heaven)
Danish String Qrt. (Wood Works)
It's a vinyl-cleaning morning here w/ fresh LRS pickups jumping out of their jackets!

Just got a new phono preamp today: Sutherland 20/20. Blown away by it. Listening to some of my favorite records and it’s like hearing them for the first time. Among others, played Debussy Nocturnes with Bernard Haitink and the Concertgebouw Orchestra from 1981. Magical!

+1 on Thick As A Brick
I had just played my early Reprise Records copy and thought the SQ was excellent and it has held up well over the years with minimal noise.
I noticed there is a 50th anniversary version coming out but I'm skeptical that it won't match up to the original pressings. I'll wait for some reviews.

I'm not complaining Brian, the Noteworthy's are wonderful. I do wish I could have heard them though.
|
That’s too bad Steve. Wonder what his reasoning is. I believe his plugs are Furutech, but he brands them.
|
I emailed him about it and his response was he didn't offer them, Brian.
