| Whats on your turntable tonight? I had a Beogram in the garage. Packed up like new in the original carton. Sold it last year. Put the money toward a Lyra Delos cartridge. Made much more sense then hanging on to the Beogram (in its carton, in the rafters). | |
| McIntosh vs Accuphase? To this day I regret selling my stack of Accuphase to my nephew. I have a wonderful system now. It really sounds fantastic and I am satisfied in every way. My Accuphase stack was from the late 1970s and consisted of a T-100 tuner, C-200 preamp,... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Yep, the cost of a quality record is certainly more than not long ago. However, many (but unfortunately not all) are just fantastic sounding. The way I (have to) look at it is this. I eat good food and it costs a good amount of money. If I can... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw I received the Barrabas album. It's quite good. Thanks for the recommendation and going the extra yard in your description. A nice addition to my collection. Very good SQ.@noromance I find that if one side sounds great and the other s... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @boxer12 Congratulations to you. I wish you well on your new venture. I truly believe in and enjoy the merits of quality cables. At some point I may try one of yours and have fun swapping into my system.Best to you on your product launch in 2021. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw Similarly, I have found that my interconnect and speaker cables definitely had a change (for the better) at about 30 hours of run-in time. I never thought of the change to be a "golden glow", as you put it. But all other aspects you descr... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @noromance I verified my original copy on Discogs. They state that the first UK pressings are verified by the inside of the gatefold, right side, showing "Produced by David Gilmour". Other pressings show "Written by Roger Waters". My copy show... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I finally got the new Symposium Foundation Rack Ultra and several sets of Rollerblock Jr HDSE. Everything is all set up, leveled, etc. A new Niagara 3000 connected to the newly installed dedicated 20 amp line (using 10 gauge romex). This was a ... | |
| Audiophile AC Outlets I use the Pangea wall duplex for my Audioquest Powerquest 2. This is specifically for my TV, Cable box, and router. It is quite sufficient. For the real deal, I use an Audioquest NRG Edison Duplex that is terminated to a dedicated 20 amp line. ... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw Steve, fantastic article on your MyMat. Congratulations! Well deserved.I'll be contacting you soon. I really must try this out on my system. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw Thank you so much for putting in the extra effort. I have been looking for something that would satisfy just what you described for the music and especially the SQ. I trust your "highest recommendation!" Thus, I'll pull the trigger. I s... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw is your Barrabas copy the one with the orange colored face, wide open mouth, being held in a purple sort of large sleeve covered arm/hand? It's a wild album cover. Your description sounds like it would be an interesting addition to my col... | |
| Audiophile metal albums Yeah, Queens of the Stone Age is bad-ass. I'm surprised that nobody has yet mentioned Metallica. Even their name says it all. They were very early heavy metal and basically began the genre. Their recordings are typically very well done. Get t... |
