What's playing in your head today?

I don’t feel so silly about ampersand artifact question now. 
Mono Recordings
Mono can be excellent.  I have a rig dedicated to it in vinyl and a large collection of mono opera, classical, jazz and early country.  Julie London’s Cry Me a River is sublime.  I play it through both speakers.   Haven’t tried only one central sp... 
Amp for nee LRS Maggies
Class d amps  are a great way to go if you don’t want to spend a bundle.  I am pleased with W4Sound.  Let’s not start the debate again however.   
SUT or phono stage?
I run a Miyajami zero low mc mono into a Bob’s device SUT and then into MM phono stage in a MA6900.  Sounds wonderful. Actually I only use half an SUT.   No power cable with a SUT. 
So just how much vinyl do YOU own?
Looks like rich121 wins or loses depending on your point of view.  Awesome either way.  I also organize by genre and then alphabetical.  My Son is a purist and recommends totally alphabetical but what does he know.  Reminds me of the humor in High...

So just how much vinyl do YOU own?
My collection almost doubled in one day!  A high school friend donated a very large number of lps to a local college.  They were placed in the library in old school fashion, pockets and checkout cards glued to the jackets.  Judging by the cards th...

Like rshak my estimate is about 7000.  Jazz, Classical, older Country, Pop/Rock, Opera and a nice Blues collection.  Probably not time left to hear it all.   I told my Wife’s friend it was for my retirement and she responded “Well good luck with t...

Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp
I drive a pair of JBL  L65s with a Khartago ex and Tempest pre.  I believe Odyssey is excellent gear.   You won’t be disappointed.  No experience with Vidar. 
Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free?
I’m on the “no” side, but I still love my vinyl.  I play mostly vinyl. Sometimes I feel like hearing music, usually classical, without any noise at all.  I go to cds at times like that.
