I got the Bluesy Burrell last month.  I concur, "highest recommendation".  An excellent album to enjoy with a glass of wine☺

I agree about the new Roxy Music reissues, the two I have gotten are quite good.  My original Avalon is excellent.  But if anyone is able to compare an original with the new reissue, I am all ears.  Please let me know.

You guys are great people.  I really appreciate all of you.

A Trick Of The Tail, now that is a great album.  I'll have to pull it out and play it. I played some newer music and some very familiar music today as I am still understanding my new speakers.  So far, even though they are a long way from being f...

I'm not certain if it were actually my speakers that were on display at Pacific Audio Fest.  If so, I was not advised of it, but I'll take the added hours for break-in.  Those are the very model though, for sure.  Apollo 11, V-3.  They are soundin...

Hey guys, my sister and brother-in-law now living at my house during their transition from Hawaii back to the mainland puts a hamper on my ability to have some quiet and quality listening time.  My sister, in particular, is a loudmouth and just wo...

The new 2022 version Apollo 11 V-3 is what I got. They are run for a few hours at the factory.  I have the next 80 hours to get them going well and about 300 + hours to fully settle in the electronics.  It's a process. I'm just about to fire up ...

Brian, now that is one album I would like to have.  
Speaker Placement and Toe-In
Well, this should be interesting.  I have Daedalus Audio speakers on the way, should arrive on Friday (model Apollo 11, newest version, V-3).  Just sold my Dynaudio Contour 60i speakers.  The Daedalus speakers have the front baffle slightly canted...

I had a similar experience with Folk Singer 45rpm that I bought from Acoustic Sound.  They handled the situation in the same manner.  I gave the "defective disc" to my brother-in-law.  His system is a decent mid-fi and the issue on the disc was no...

@bslon   Impex is one of the very best labels for producing superior quality products in materials and sonics.  Available now for pre-order is the new (from Impex) Patricia Barber album 45rpm 2-disc set, made in the 1Step format in the same packag...

I agree that Gary Moore is underrated.  He is excellent! Boz Scaggs, the album Dig, does have some really deep bass.  In fact, I am going to be using that in the mix for breaking the drivers on my new speakers. Good news, FINALLY!!!   They are s...
