| Headphones vs full range speakers I have a pair of Sennheiser 599SE. I really never use them. I am simply too attracted to the music filling my room. Yes, I’ve thought about getting a better set (probably Grado), but, as I would never really use them, money better spent elsewhere... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @noromance Yup. I have to ground myself off the metal Lally column before touching the headshell lift. Otherwise... I hear ya. Luckily my rack that holds my SOTA has a metal frame, so back to reminding myself to tap it a couple times before I... | |
| Garage Listing room @arch2 Since you will still be using the space as your garage and/or shop you may consider putting some drywall at selected locations on the walls to help reduce the amount of absorption in the space. I was thinking the exact same thing. Per... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Welcome back Joel. Just finished doing the last yard work of the late fall. Don't worry, winter is coming. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw Thanks for the heads-up on the New West sale. Just picked-up Hiatt's The Open Road and Eclipse Sessions for a great price. +15% off for my first order. Mystic Pinball was unfortunately sold out. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Just brought up the humidifier from the basement. It's winter. Humidity down to 22% today. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Checking out the new Wallflowers release on NewWest (not on sale, but a decent price), streaming, nice, but not sure the SQ is 'top notch'. Tempting though. They have a few Hiatt selections on sale though....mmmmmm | |

| Best Phono You've Heard Under $2200 @sandthemall 👍🏼 Enjoy! | |
| Best Phono You've Heard Under $2200 @gochurchgo rs worry me. Also the cap might be too high for my cart but I see many with 220pf. I run MM/MI only (at least for the forseeable future) and so it seems like I would be wasting most of this thing’s functionality. As do I, but it i... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? @noromance @bkeske I bought an original to replace a missing record recently for the most I’ve ever spent on an album. $105. I hope it arrives safely from Europe. Yea, I looked at a couple UK releases, but with shipping from Europe/UK they we... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? You guys are a bad influance. (😉). One of my favorite groups/bands in the 90’s was The Sundays. They only produced three albums, and have them all on CD. The vinyl today is very high priced. But, I just cracked open the wallet and purchased a NM... | |
| New Tidal Plans and Changes Got the email too, thanks for this thread as I hadn't yet looked into the new tiers. Just downgraded to the HiFi (vs what I have now; HiFi+) service to save some money. I don't really need MQA, or '3D sound'. I like how they are paying artists... |
