Annie Lennox is phenomenal.  I'll search to find my copy of one of her albums to play tomorrow or tomorrow night. Yeah Steve, a toke or two makes the music come to life on an entirely new level.  The layers, the depth, it's something I savor for o...

George Benson  "In Flight"  He sure can play, and harmonize along with his guitar playing.  What a talent!Heart  "Dreamboat Annie"  A classic, for sure.  Side 1 always gets the attention with the 2 radio hits on it.  Side 2, however, is wonderful....

The vinyl from my youth, unfortunately, became rather thrashed and I gave those away many years ago.  Even then, I repurchased several.  And now, I have repurchased a number of those titles either as reissue or NM/M- in a used record.  Those memor... 
Tang Band 2145 in action
You have got to be kidding.  Even my computer speakers were unable to  "dummy down" the horrible sound of those low-end drivers.Really, really bad!  I would not put them in my car audio system, or even the car audio system in my children' cars.Bow...

Steve,Regarding Kirmus method, also check out the method used by theaudiophileman  I like his method very much and am about to get the products and begin to apply that method with my Degritter.  It's very similar to Kirmus.  You can find it by sea...

Indeed, Wild Life isn't as "polished" but that helps make it what it is.  Listening to the album brought back memories of my girlfriend at the time.  I was a freshman in college, we met, and we loved this album.  I had my first real high-fidelity ...
