| Women In Vinyl ^ Or whipped cream. Remember that Herb Albert LP cover? | |
| Ultrasonic LP Cleaning vs. “Thread Type” Cleaning (Keith Monks/Loricraft/etc.) I bought the last Vinyl Stack Spinner the company had left. Phew, that was close! I had been procrastinating forever, but learning they were closing shop I finally took the plunge. The I got myself a cheap Vevor ultrasonic bath for now, the one th... | |
| In general, how does price relate to quality? For the companies that price their products according to the cost to manufacture, it can reflect the quality of the parts used. But there have been products made using the best parts available, and (some) people still don't like how they sound.The... | |
| Sad News-- Nancy Griffith Has Passed Our kinda artist, ay Stuart?---Eric. | |
| RIP Nanci Damn, whatta drag. Nanci was a class act. 68 isn't very old, younger than a lot of her peers. | |
| Sonics? All Things Must Pass -50th Anniversary Bobby Whitlock (organist, pianist, harmony singer on ATMP, member of Derek & The Dominos) savagely panned the LP version of the reissue. | |
| The birth of a new thread dedicated to sharing our newly-acquired "old" LP's. Awesome Steve! I have "Green Onions" as my phone ringer. | |
| I feel bad for GenX'ers that missed out on the 60s and 70s. @recluse: have you heard Mary Gauthier, Iris Dement, Lucinda Williams, or Julie Miller? There are dozens more like them, but they're not on radio or TV. You have to dig to find them. Check out the No Depression website and/or print zine. | |

| What speaker do you passionately want to demo? I forgot to mention: For their "30.7 For Condo's" concept speaker, Magnepan chose to use OB/Dipole subs for bass frequencies, in place of the huge separate planar bass panels of the 30.7. Each of their OB subs contains six (I believe) small woofer... | |
| Women In Vinyl There a few gals who are members of The Vinyl Community posting videos on YouTube, covering varying aspects of LP acquisition and ownership, as well as the music they contain. The Omaha Introvert is a particular favorite of mine, as one of her fav... | |
| What speaker do you passionately want to demo? @mijostyn: I couldn’t agree more about the wisdom of feeding a loudspeaker a high pass-filtered signal when used with a sub, for a few reasons. Can you imagine not putting a high pass filter on the midrange driver in a 3-way loudspeaker?! Taking t... | |
| What high end cartridge matches best with the Wheaton Triplanar tonearm? Lenco tables are very popular with Decca/London pickup fanatics. I see no reason why the Triplanar wouldn’t be a good mate for any of them. All pickups benefit from an arm with a very stiff tube and rattle-free bearings, but none so much as the Lo... | |
| Pedal steel @dodgealum: Tell your guitar-playing friend to give a listen to Danny Gatton (mentioned by another poster above). In-cre-di-ble! Vince Gill---a mighty fine player himself---nicknamed him The Humbler ;-) . A guitarist’s guitarist. Jerry Garcia has ... | |
| Finally, a great stylus cleaner-Onzow Zerodust! ^ Do you mean Stylast? |
