| Jazz for aficionados And this is a very different di Meola:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjJ8rAaYcN0&list=PL8a8cutYP7foPEnsOFrSRomq4-FnJemj8 | |
| Jazz for aficionados Orpheus10, sure, I quite like di Meola, my favourite album from that time is probably Splendido Hotel.This is from Casino album:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjJ8rAaYcN0&list=PL8a8cutYP7foPEnsOFrSRomq4-FnJemj8 | |
| Jazz for aficionados That Zawinul's Orient Express makes no sense to me. I like him but not as a band leader.Of course, I know that Paco's tune - new flamenco, nice but not engaging.I could never convince myself to like Segovia. Not a fan either but when it comes to c... | |
| Jazz for aficionados No, I can't stand those singers from his latest group, that's not flamenco singing.Solea and his other solo performances I know very well. In a sense, they are better because it's pure flamenco, but you can't really compare. I think that Zyryab pe... | |
| Upgrade from Rega Elys 2 Pear Audio tables/arms could be worth considering as well, they are in fact very much based on Nottingham design. I have not auditioned them but heard high praise, especially of their top of the line set-up. | |
| Upgrade from Rega Elys 2 As far as I know, there is only one distributor/dealer in the US - Hollywood Sound in Florida. I talked to Larry, the owner, a few times but don't know how he sells outside his area. He really likes Nottingham and strongly prefers MCs with them. P... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Let's call it flamenco jazz. The sound is too digital but I couldn't find better quality.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xY0gQaL_kcg | |
| Jazz for aficionados This is a great piece not to be outdated regardless of anything.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVdgNXXbm_k | |
| Warm, rich sounding interconnects? I have never heard of broken-in Purist cables being unfocused, but there are Purist fakes. As for bright, some mostly silver Purist with Ferox not fluid could be a little bright in some systems, my old Colossus RCA with Ferox is an example. It was... | |
| Upgrade from Rega Elys 2 I see. I would suggest then to stay with MM cartridge. Rega Exact would be a logical step up, Nagaoka 500 may be an excellent if expensive choice. | |
| Cable manufacturers? In 100 years there might be no USA at all let alone it's currency.What about single crystal cooper? Any disadvantages? | |
| Upgrade from Rega Elys 2 My thinking exactly. Upgrade the table and then move from there. Cartridge is the least important element, within reason, of table/arm/cartridge/phono set-up. I use $375 ( from the UK ) Goldring 1042 MM cartridge with Nottingham Spacedeck/Spacearm... | |
| AC power supply for Nottingham Analogue PS Audio Premier holds the voltage quite steady at 120 or 121. Still everything sounds better after the midnight. | |
| Small but high quality integrated Gryphon now has a US distributor - On A Higher Note. No dealers yet, though. Their Diablo 120 is not particularly small or inexpensive but must be great. Optional phono or dac. | |
| Warm, rich sounding interconnects? Yeah, Purist Poseidon fluid for about $600 new should do it. I have not heard it, thought about getting it but decided on Purist's current best fluid cable - Neptune. What a cable. |
