Steve, I have a 40+ year relationship with the owner of Upscale Audio. He provides me with very substantial discounts so I really try to stick with the brands that he carries. I believe that Feickert Analog is the best of his turntable assortment, at least, for me it is. Speakers, however, are just a bit more personal. Focal at a substantial discount from Upscale or seek out what most pleases me. That's why I am flying to Daedalus Audio this week. I think they will meet my expectations. If so, I will place my order. They are build-to-order and have a lead time of about 4 months. Plus the new turntable setup and I am broke for all of 2022😂 |
Streaming now into Campfire IEMs. What a nice little album. I like the instrumentation and the open “hear the room” recording. Eddi’s vocals are recorded a little dry I think but she’s very expressive in a very appealing way. Great to learn about this record. Thanks dudes.

Dire Straits-Dire Straits 2021 Rhino RE Beatles-The Beatles & Esher Demos Box 2018 Apple RE Any “system synergy” naysayers are welcome to stop by and give a listen to my rig. The ATVM740ml is $55 more than the Grado Opus3, and sounds half as good on my system. Side note, the MA352 is everything I had hoped and more. |
@bslon - I see from your avatar that we share at least one other hobby besides audio - I enjoy quad kite flying, too! |
@gardners501 —Too cool! Modern kites, especially quad lines are a blast! Fun pastime, I can get lost in it. Like playing the stereo! Mountain / Nantucket Sleighride |
As recommended by @tomic601, just arrived today. Hope it plays better than it looks initially… Joe Sample/Ray Brown/Shelly Manne - The Three. Inner City Records 1978 |
‘The Three’ turns out to play better than it looked, not in the VG+ as stated, but very nice. Another from the same seller, and have concerns about its condition too vs it’s claim….so we’ll see… Modern Jazz Quartet - European Concert. Atlantic 2LP gatefold 1960. Stereo. Recorded in ‘Scandinavia’ April 1960. This one has been on my ‘wish list’ for a while. |
