Whats on your turntable tonight? grateful dead "reckoning," and an original mono pressing of paul desmond "desmond blue" tonight | |
Turntables New vs Used i love this thread! to go even further in left field, have any of you seen the movie "what the *bleep* do we know?" a very accessible melding of the "big questions" of quantum physics and metaphysics. | |
iron audio mat are these threads not for the free-flowing and open exchange of ideas? it has always perplexed and intrigued me how this process so agitates some. i believe audiogon already moderates the threads. perhaps they are hiring--i cannot say. that said, ... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? ok, i must have way too much free time on my hands since i quit my job. this is becoming a nightly ritual. tonight, it's been selections from the argenta box set, with special attention to the 45rpm disc of falla's "the three cornered hat," as wel... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? this evening: selections from the beatles red vinyl mono EP set, will oldham "arise therefore," and robyn hitchcock "mossy liquor"the CD player continues to gather dust these days. | |

Whats on your turntable tonight? the band "stage fright" (op), johnny cash "american recordings" (love that mono), an original pink island label jethro tull "stand up," and lastly a 1S/1S shaded dog mono of the heifetz sibelius violin concerto. | |
Review: Denon DL-160 Cartridge my guess is that more than likely the older 160 was stored in less than optimal conditions and was affected somehow, but the notion that denon continually refines and optimizes these products in some way is a good one! the potential effects of tim... | |
Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? modified toshiba sd-4960. very detailed, musical and non-fatiguing. | |
Review: Denon DL-160 Cartridge i have had one of these up and running for just about a month now, having taken the leap in part based on this review. i'm totally enthralled with this cartridge--a big, bold yet detailed sound that is totally musically involving in my system. i s... | |
Ready to try vinyl my humble take on this is that in fact speed accuracy IS INDISPUTABLY as important as it "seems," and the issue at hand is not the table/arm/cartridge combination, but the table ONLY, and it's one and only function, which is to maintain as stable ... | |
Linn Sondek LP-12 happy/un-happy owners i bought an LP12 with valhalla and ittok initially and was quite pleased for a while. for me (and my ten thumbs), set-up issues plagued that particular table. i heard a basic teres setup and promptly sold the linn as the sound quality bested the l... | |
Review: Denon DL-110 Cartridge thanks ferrari for helping to make more people aware of these amazing cartridges. i recently took a chance and bought a DL-160, in part based on ed kobesky's review. i am shocked at how good it sounds, and it replaced a MSRP $2.5K low-output movin... | |
What's your latest "Discovery" jonathan byrd and dromedary "the sea and the sky" maybe it's just me, but this is quite simply an excellent acoustic work on all counts--songwriting, storytelling, musicianship etc.....a real depth and breadth that seems to reveal something new wi... | |
Samsung Hd841 or Toshiba 4960 modifications i have to say that i am *very* pleased with the sound of my modded toshiba with every disc i throw at it. i had a modded jolida jd100 with smooth-plate teles that i sold about a year ago or so, and as of now i don't miss it a bit. i think the outl... |
