| Any favorites for cosmetics/design/how a product looks? @deadhead1000 Back then my friends all had Marantz receivers and mostly JBL speakers. I was an outlier with the Sansui and ESS’s. I miss the displays of those receivers, intricate and cool! They got a lot of us, like me and you, hooked on audio. | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Grateful Dead / American Beauty 2003 Warner Bros. 180g RE, orig. 1970 High Fidelity is back, just a great record! The cover is an ambigram, does it say “American Beauty” or “American Reality”? | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Rolling Stones / It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll 1974 Rolling Stones Records Great music, sonics could and should be better—maybe it’s my copy? | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? those new Roxy Music reissues are pretty special! Greg, I agree. Not just great sonics, but super quiet (at least my copy is) vinyl and a single disc at 33 1/3. I need to pick up some others while they’re available. | |
