| Whats on your turntable tonight? Had a friend over for a listening session, mixed some vinyl and digital together. Showed off Jim's old speakers. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @reubent I may have more Elvis records than I do from any other artist. Perhaps more so because he has put out so many records than him being my favorite artist (I wouldn't categorize him that way). I've seen him live a few times too, and it's a... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Spinning another copy of Armed Forces, this one sounds really good! Must be one of those dang hot stampers. I never thought of this as an "audiophile" record, even the MFSL release, but the sonics on this copy are really good. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Rickie Lee Jones - Flying Cowboys | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Pink Floyd - DSOTM, MFSL | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Great memories sourpuss! I'm a little jealous. | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? That was so much fun to see two such completely different acts. Buck Owens was great. Bumbershoot used to be super cool. Check out the lineup:https://archive.seattletimes.com/archive/?date=19980716&slug=2761421 | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I saw Buck Owens and the Screaming Trees at Bumbershoot in 1988. It was my youngest son's first concert. We were in the mosh pit and someone kicked him in the head. For a moment, I thought it would be our first and last concert together after h... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I've been playing around with Roon. Talk about a rabbit hole! I did pick up a pile of vinyl today, including what looks like a nearly pristine copy of the MFSL DSOTM. I'll be tearing myself away from the digital music box soon. | |
| DAC That Punches Above Its Price Point I can't think of anything I've heard that "punches above its price point". The old maxim, "you get what you pay for" is true for most things. Sometimes you're paying for something other than sound quality (audio jewelry), but a $150 DAC is not g... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? I broke down and decided to give Roon a try. I picked up a Roon Nucleus so that I could use it as a streamer and move my Aqua La Voce S3 DAC into my main system. My two TEAC NT-505 streamer/DACs became Roon endpoints and one moved to my computer... | |
| Any Vienna acoustics love out there? Anyone even still using them? I have owned the Haydn Grand and older Beethovens. I really liked them when I first heard them. They were really easy to listen to, but over time they were a little too warm and recessed for me, and frankly, rather boring compared to the Kefs, T... | |
| Stereo Preamp suggestion A budget number would be helpful. I used a Modwright LS100 until recently and have since upgraded to a Herron VTSP-360 Reference. Both have HTBP. My subs are active for both stereo listening and home theater. Many preamps have more than one se... |
