| OpenReelRecords : new titles on the market ... Are you depressed and lose sleep that the sun is going to go supernova in 5 billion years? Do you read through every issue of Stereophile like a grammar Nazi and look for every typo too? Do you go through every owners manual and look for typos and... | |
| OpenReelRecords : new titles on the market ... Perhaps you can enlighten all of us on Openreel's project. You obviously have no clue and didn't even take the time to visit their website and learn before shooting your mouth off. Better yet, you can start by telling us how much one 10-inch reel ... | |
| OpenReelRecords : new titles on the market ... This thread brings Internet ignorance and trolling to a new low. | |

| Classical Record Labels and Recording Engineers... Oooops, you are right. Missed that. Sorry! | |
| Classical Record Labels and Recording Engineers... Apologies if this is a repeat.1. What happened to Erato? Some amazing sounding LPs especially the Messiaen recordings.2. Tony Faulkner. Don't have the original but check out the MHS reissue of Songs From the Fayrfax Manuscript. Sensational and he ... | |

| Your favorite LP nobody has ever heard of Roshamon on Carlton Records. Possibly recorded by Robert Fine but definitely cut by George Piros. Laurence Rosenthal and Leonard Bernstein combine efforts to produce an amazing soundtrack and the LP is mind bogglingly good sounding. | |

| Listening to Kenny Burrell Midnight Blue Oh yes, the MM release is a darn good facsimile of the tape. Just a little bit missing here and there but the LP ismy still wonderful sonically and musically. | |
| Listening to Kenny Burrell Midnight Blue The answer is that the engineers in the early days of stereo had yet to discover with two track, the phantom middle channel. Most, if not all, of the early jazz recordings suffered from this hard left, hard right/dual mono effect. From what I've b... | |
| WAVE KINETICS NVS Reference Turntable OK, I see what you are saying Lew. I misunderstood the question. Obviously in the case of VPI, the motor/platter comes separate (and extremely well packed) from the plinth and need to be assembled before playing. I'm only guessing but it might be ... | |
| Classic Records vs. Analogue Productions I hate to say it but the debate is moot. Whatever your opinion, and I too have all the originals, there wouldn't be all the turntables there are today without the efforts of Hobson, Chad, Joe and Ron and a few others. They kept analog alive. BTW, ... | |
