@mammothguy54 Very nice!  Hope it gives you all the pleasure and joy you’re expecting and more so.  
 

@tomic601 Did you find the problem?

@slaw +1 on Green Pajamas. Cool band. I was talking bout them with my daughter just the other day.  I think @waltersalas posted about them recently.  

@slaw I like the Quads.  It’s sort of like listening to really good big open headphones.   They do cool surround sound staging tricks.  However, I must say that I was surprised that they’re neither as open or revealing as my Klipschorns.  The horns also produce reality better and put more presence in the room.  While the quads are really sweet, especially on the right music, I don’t ever forget I’m listening to reproduced music.  I wouldn’t say the sound is unnatural.  It’s like headphones.   Does that make sense?  
 

Im still fooling around with the Quad’s setup and got a REL to add to it.  Will let you know if I get improvements.  
 

overall I like them.  They’re a good alternative to the horns.  I’m lucky in that sense.  It wasn’t an expensive experiment.

Far as I know this is the only record this label ever produced but it’s fantastic in every way.   

 

@slaw I’ll be watching for a report from you about your new isolation gear.   For now my electronics are isolated by being in a different room from the speakers but I may get some small speakers for the small room where the gear resides and might benefit from more attention to isolation.  

Getting caught up...

Joel, Congratulations & enjoy that wonderful set!!

Steve, I am also very interested in your opinion of the PODS. Congrats on the purchase!!

James - I moved the NAIM to another AC circuit, put a Tidal stream on repeat and let it rip all day, no power bumps…so it’s back in nook…will light it off soon…

@slaw Interested in your Pods outcome. As you know, I’m a big fan of Nobsound springs with sets under everything (turntable, tube phono, tube power supply, tube pre, tube power amps) except speakers with very good results.
