| your first system- I remember that the first Monster Cable, I believe it was 12 gauge multi-strand copper, was the big deal of its time. I think that was about 1979. I replaced my 16 gauge lamp cord with it. The original Tip Toes quickly followed. That was the b... | |
| your first system- At about 10 years of age I convinced my patents to get me an all-in-one stereo. You know, the lid opens up to reveal a record player, the speakers fold out and you then lift them off of the hinges and about 8 feet of wire comes out of a small por... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? It's either the dog or the records that fall into first place🤣 Steve, my copy is fairly quiet with just a little surface noise between songs. That's not an issue at all. However, the overall SQ seems to have a veil over it, a bit "muffled" s... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Traffic - John Barleycorn Must Die A very good PP copy. Supertramp - Brother Where You Bound Also, a very good PP copy which I bought as soon as it was released. Robert Plant / Alison Krauss - Raise The Roof Michael Franks - Tiger In The Rain... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I've had my Degritter since last March. I have been doing research for a while now on Tergitol, the proper mixture, application, pre-cleaning methods, etc. I also have a Nitty Gritty so for used records that too lends a helping hand in a multi-s... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Jim, you have my attention on this. It sounds as though you have a Degritter on backorder? And with an extra tank? It sounds as though you will clean with a Tergitol solution/mixture and then follow up with pure distilled water rinse via the se... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @dayglow Thank you for the help and quality information. I made the purchase on Discogs and also sent you a PM in return. This thread is the best! | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I have both of those Blind Faith albums. Excellent music! The young girl on the cover was a really big deal, back in the day. I don't recall which graphic was released first. I tend to believe the girl was first and then it was replaced by the... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I'm on my way to Mammoth Mountain for a few days of skiing. Keep 'em spinning. Enjoy the music. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Brian, I just caught up on the thread. So nice to hear that you received your new preamp and that you're liking it very much. It's beautiful! Congrats to you, enjoy it in good health. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Joan Armatrading S/T, pp edition. Paul Simon "One Trick Pony" pp edition. John Lee Hooker "It Serve You Right To Suffer" Analogue Productions, QRP 45 rpm double disc set. It amazes me how much information, of the smallest minutia, was pres... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @j_husker I love that story. Update; from the Dayglo reviews, yesterday I ordered the Yellowjackets album. Only $8.24 including shipping. It won't be just 1 day to receive it, but the price is more than fair. I look forward to it. Also fr... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Awesome stories here today. Jim, wonderful news on your negative test. So sorry to hear about your aunt in AZ. I think that we all know to be excessively cautious right now. COVID sucks! Roxy Music "Avalon" David Crosby "If I Could Only ... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @sailmed I am interested in the Ell and Loius album but see there are more than one that seems to have the same title. Can you please describe which one that you have. Thank you. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Tears For Fears had two really great albums. Holds well, to this day. I saw Wendy O and the Plasmatics at Perkins Palace, in Pasadena. And yes, they blew up a car on stage (signature performance stunt). It was quite a sonic concussion. And... |
