2A3 Set power amp
Anyway I have purchased this amp made by Chris Barnett, with 2- 2a3 Sovtek, 2- 6F5GT National electronics and 1-jj rectifier tube. With my 88db B&W speakers I am astonished! This F-in thing sounds like a locomotive on the right track. Holy cow... 
Classics Clarity Vinyl
Big star #1 Record and Radio City sound brilliant. Send them back, you should not stand for bad pressings and Classic Records know it.These records already cost a small fortune. They will refund or exchange.

Favorites Alone In Quiet Darkness
David Johanssen and the Harry Smiths. An underated gem of a blues album called Shaker. Downright hauntingly beautiful in the dark. 
Ho Hum
In both channels 
what cartridge?
I have the same table purchased new with the Goldring Eroica cart. After replacing it with a Dynavector 10x5 I realized what I have been missing. The 10x5 has clear wide soundstage with terrific mids and steady low ends. I cant recommend this cart... 
Ho Hum
