| MM vs MC Cartridges I’m dealing with the situation but I’m helping a friend with his vinyl rig and I believe a low output cartridge would be too much of a challenge for his Rega phono amp. So, how about medium output cartridges? I know they’re out there. Can people ... | |
| Doping your fuse box I have Akiko products. They work but I rent and share a house so messing with the electrical is not an option. Especially given that my neighbor below me is the landlord. Goal Zero makes a very good sounding rechargeable battery driven generator.... | |
| Mercury Living Presence Mercury and Everest are similar in the way they both recorded with 35mm tape. Mercury and Everest also share the distinction of audiophile recordings pressed on cheap vinyl. My advice would be to purchase remastered cd’s or remastered and represse... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? ‘Patachou’s Paris’ in glorious mono. | |
| Lieder anyone? Jim, people are disappointed but still glad the Bengals made it as far as they did. The Bengals just need to find a way to win a Super Bowl to refute this notion that they’re cursed. The ref made a questionable call but that’s in the past. I plan ... | |

| A** Kicking, Rock and Roll! One of your friends played guitar for Yoko Ono??!!! Lucky duck! Fortunately not! | |
| A** Kicking, Rock and Roll! To all, thank you. I’ve been listening to those mentioned bands that are available on Tidal. I hadn’t realized that there were metal bands who layered orchestration behind guitars, bass and drums. Also, one of the bands mentioned, happened to be a... | |
| A** Kicking, Rock and Roll! All right Tim, I can't tell if you're being serious. | |
