| CCR Woodstock 50 yrs Double LP Believe it or not I’ve never watched the whole movie (most of the bands/artists are not to my taste. The Band wouldn’t sign-off on any song from their set being included in the movie or soundtrack. By the way, though all the performers were asked ... | |
| Room setup Partly because of the cement slab foundation? That's assuming the floor of the house is a suspended wood structure. | |
| LP12- Power Supply- Need education @lewm, lots of other tables have had their motors mounted on a stationary platform and their platters suspended: the Acoustic Research, Thorens 125/150/etc, Oracle, VPI HW-19, and of course the Linn Sondek itself. Did the old Sapphire have the slo... | |
| Again the topic of weight of amps @fleschler, the RM-200 Mk.2 is an unusual tube amp, not behaving like a "normal" one. It has a lower-than-usual output impedance for a tube design (John Atkinson’s bench test results included in Fremer’s review of the amp), so interacts less with ... | |
| PayPal Frustration/Issue Heads-Up The same problem exists on U.S. AudioMart. Every single payment made to me via Paypal "through" the USAM system in the past month has immediately been cancelled. USAM and Paypal each blame the other. | |
| SME Turntable Dealers Brooks Berdan Ltd. in Monrovia, CA is a long-time SME retailer. | |
| Need compact end of life audio system to shoehorn into a corner of a compact living space That "end of life" phrase is really disturbing! I myself am of an age to which the phrase can (and is) used appropriately, and I don't like hearing it ;-) . | |
| Tune of the Day @slaw, if you don't already have it, consider getting the s/t first Crazy Horse album from 1971. Danny Whitten was still alive and in the band, as was Jack Nitzsche (he was hired by Neil Young for the Harvest album, and stayed on for a while), who... | |
| Searching for matching(?) Subwoofer solution The Rythmik F12-300 Servo-Feedback Subwoofer is currently on sale for $700 shipped. That's of course $2800 for four, but if you buy more than one at a time, I believe you get a 10% discount on your order. Each sub has it's own 300 watt amp, and co... | |
| Sweethearts of the rodeo tour Marty is coming to Washington, but opening for Steve Miller.@pehare, Clarence getting hit by a car and dying was SUCH a tragedy. What a waste. I've performed a lot of CH-era Byrds songs in bands, especially their version of Dylan's "You Ain't Goin... | |
| 1973 '73 was the year I bought my first "big" system: Magneplanar Tympani T-I loudspeakers, ARC electronics, Thorens/SME/Decca record player, Revox A77. My dealer was Walter Davies, now known for his excellent LAST record, tape, and CD maintenance prod... | |
| Best Record Cleaning Fluid Liz, baby, to not wash a used LP is like to deep kiss a stranger: you don’t know where that mouth/LP has been ;-) . The Record Doctor RCM can be had for only $199. | |
| Magnepans or...Martin Logan @cleeds, richopp is obviously unaware that were both tall and/or boxless speakers long before Magnepan introduced it’s original model the Tympani T-I in the early-70’s (which I bought in ’73. I currently have a pair of T-IVa), including the 6’ tal... | |
| Does anybody change their speaker placement with different types of music and bands? I'll bet Michael Green does. | |
| It was 50 years ago today... I still marvel at the fact that a mere one year after A Hard Day's Night was in the theaters, and the same year as Help! was playing, The Grateful Dead (still known as The Warlocks) were playing their first shows in the Bay Area, their very first ... |
