10,000 Maniacs - In My Tribe. Elektra 1987 @spiritofradio Lets just say I’m pretty happy. It takes a few albums to realize just how large the subtle changes are, which means overall, not really subtle at all when you sit and listen. Even makes In My Tribe much more listenable. That’s why I put it on, to see how much difference, if any, there was. Big notes: Everything has so much more weight & realism. The instruments have weight, as do the vocals. Lots of punch in the mids and mid-bass areas. Sharp defined punch. I was interested in how much more ‘holographic’ it may sound with the tubes, but that didn’t necessarily improve as much as I thought, but rather, the whole soundstage seems ‘knitted together’ while also providing and maintaining very good imaging, if that makes sense. Like the whole soundstage is much bigger, rather than sounds over here, and some over there. It’s all connected, but not a ‘big glob’ kinda way. Overall very natural sounding. I’m experimenting with a couple tube dampers on the 2 12au7 ‘front tubes’ not the main 100 gain 12ax7’s. It’s interesting how much difference that makes. Takes a bit of ‘air’ off the highs and mid-highs, but perhaps more natural and realistic. Fun to try stuff and see what I may end up with. The more I play, the more I listen, the more that I realize what this thing is doing. That Szell Sibelius LP earlier today was incredible. |
@bekeske everything has so much more weight & realism. The instruments have weight, as do the vocals. Lots of punch in the mids and mid-bass areas. Sharp defined punch. I was interested in how much more ‘holographic’ it may sound with the tubes, but that didn’t necessarily improve. It will only get Even Better with Time. I'll bet that after 100+ hours you will be even happier. |
@spiritofradio Thanks for the note. Missed the leads on great music from all. Did you ever make a move on a streamer and DAC? |
Chick Corea - My Spanish Heart. I went out of town for a long weekend with my girlfriend and we were at a antique store that had some records. They had a couple of bins in the main area of the store where most of the records were overpriced and not in very good shape. They said "oh there are some more records upstairs". I found this in the $5 bin. The vinyl appears to be near perfect and is playing great so far. The cover is VG Plus. |
@nicks25 Hey there, no, no new streamers lately - I’ve been pretty focused on analogue, buying many records. I also ordered some nice modest new speakers to try in the den (second set/second room) Tekton Perfect SET 2-10. Records are just so good right now and I’ve been rushing to flesh out the collection at the same time I’m spinning from all the distractions of new issues. Keep the posts coming. How’z your arm ? Healing up? |
@slaw and All, Fun stuff at lunch today. Was listening to Rush - "A Farewell to Kings", an album I've owned since it was released in 1977, and listened to hundreds of times. I heard something in the mix I never noticed before. An additional side/under tone in the orchestra bells at the beginning of "Cygnus X-1". Don't know if its the MyMat, or just a heightened awareness for some reason, but I never noticed this side/under tone before. Oh, and I've been noticing better bass definition lately (since adding the MyMat). Bass lines are much easier to follow and bass tone delineation is better too.... I've really enjoyed listening to my LPs lately. MyMat was a recent addition and it's staying..... Enjoy! |
Yes indeed, that is just what I found when adding two of the MyMat. Bass lines were easier to follow and I also discovered some little nuances of musical information that I had not heard before (on a number of albums). Really great! Then I got the Degritter US RCM and that added another level to everything. This sure is a fun hobby. Brian, enjoy that phono stage. And yes, after 80 to 100 hours those tubes will "bloom" into a more holographic presentation of the music. Dependent on the recording, of course, but always will deliver better than you had previously heard the given album. Peter Nero 'Summer of 42' Great music and I have had this album since 1974. Not the SQ that I remember, though. Maybe my higher resolution system of today revealed what I could not hear on my first hi-fi system. Atlanta Rhythm Section 'Champagne Jam' I enjoyed that last week so played it again last night. Love 'Forever Changes' Rhino reissue, made in Germany. Had this in 8th grade but that became thrashed. Bought the well-reviewed reissue and, wow, what a great job they did. Such memories... |
@mammothguy54 Thanks man. Yea, there are a lot of conflicting info out there regarding tubes and if ‘burn-in’ is a reality with tubes. I’ve always been a solid state guy, so this is my first foray into a power or pre tube amp. One thing is for sure, it seems a lot of things can effect the sounds in regards to ‘tube power’. Little things like playing with dampers, has a pretty big effect. Just finished with work for the day, so another round of LP’s and see what the night brings, and the days ahead. |
Ludwig Van Beethoven Concerto Per Violino E Orchestra In Re Mach. Op. 61 Salvatore Accardo Violin and Conductor Orchestra Da Camera Italiana fone 2015 Recorded in 2005 all analogue, analogue cutting and one-step production. This recording captures dynamics and spatial effects very well. Tones are rich but there’s something odd about the tone, especially the cellos and basses, and maybe a little hard edged treble. Maybe it is true to the venue, not certain. Very quiet vinyl. Sweet rendition of the music but not completely certain yet how I feel about it. Fortunately it wasn’t super expensive. Will reevaluate after the 4th or 5th listen. |
