| What are your go to LP's for evaluating new gear or new tubes? I believe that was Vivaldi's Opus 3, not anything to do with the Swedish record company! This one? | |
| What are your go to LP's for evaluating new gear or new tubes? It would be nice if discogs were more fussy about mentioning DBX status. I once got an LP that had the CBS CX noise reduction on it.

| What are your go to LP's for evaluating new gear or new tubes? I think this is the pink label version of TFTT, which I shall have to play this morning: | |
| What are your go to LP's for evaluating new gear or new tubes? One re-master definitely worth listening to is Steve Hoffman’s version of Joni Mitchell’s Blue. Lovely! | |
