| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! Carol seems to have changed a bit since that picture on the Internet, but I do not doubt it was her personally. Thanks millercarbon.The record was packaged well. Probably the safest I have gotten them so far. Sturdy record-sized box, then decent b... | |
| Worst Concerts You Have Attended ?? No, he pulled Live Aid off. | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound frogman,Of course, the ideal would be comparing live performance of non-amplified music with whatever we have at home. I was mentioning rock'n'roll because it seems to me that most of the members here (Audiogon, not necessarily only this thread) l... | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound "No system sounds exactly like live music and none ever will; but some get surprisingly close."Do not forget that some (most?) of the current live music/events are also playing through the electronic system. When listening to, let’s say, rock’n’ro... | |
| Worst Concerts You Have Attended ?? With so many Bob Dylan entries here, I have to agree. Only the last time, whenever that was (not long before Coronavirus), was he anything close to good. Other few times, it was mostly "Ok, now I saw Bob Dylan". As a few others mentioned, it was h... | |
| Worst Concerts You Have Attended ?? mitchagain,"All three only lasted around 45 minutes; so, they also felt like a double ripoff."Look at the bright side. At least you did not pay to be tortured for three times 90 minutes. | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! Unfortunate thing with this kind of approach is that it means nothing to anybody except to the one doing it.There was a thread Talk but not walk some time ago. It was a place to say and claim anything. From Kim Jong Un to geometry of wings on the ... | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! Going back in order:jetter,I thought of Tekton and Raven, but realized that my approach may be better. With Tekton and Raven, everything would sound like White Hot Stamper, if not even better. It would defeat the purpose of the test.bluemoodriver,... | |
| Worst Concerts You Have Attended ?? Lou Reed.It was probably my fault to some extent. It was not reasonable to expect Rock'n'Roll Animal and he did not deliver it. Even the beginning was to be the same songs, but Rock'n'Roll Animal it was not. Although it was decades later, I think... | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! "Very thorough."I omitted details about the rest of the system(s) as it should have no impact on record making circles.The plan is to do that comparison with a friend of mine (he is the owner of Pioneer and Ortofon 2M Red) at his place. millercarb... | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! "I can't pass up a terrific name like Zoot Sims!"This is when I first heard Zoot play that little beauty... The Muppet Show - Sax and Violence - YouTube | |
| Funny how streaming/digital still chases that analog benchmark. lexx21,"Not I. No multiple accounts here."Your parents gave you very unusual name then. I am afraid to ask why did audio2design's parents chose his. | |
| Funny how streaming/digital still chases that analog benchmark. "fake username"Are thyname, millercarbon, firstonetallguy, mrbobm, and skypunk real names? (that is just from this page, but could be the list from any)I though most everybody here is under the fake name. | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! "Do you know the specifics of the turntable you are going to demo the album on?You know, to prepare yourself for the onslaught of tomfoolery if you don’t care for the sound...."It may depend on Carol’s interaction (I can learn, you see) with mille... | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! tuzarupa,"Perhaps the other residents of our universe would use a light beam to decode it?"If you dig through those links I have provided earlier in the thread, records actually came with a stylus to play them with. I think it said the stylus was ... |
