Whats on your turntable tonight? Little Willie Littlefield – It's Midnight (Route 66 1979)Lowell Fulson – Swing Time In The Big Town: Rare And Unreleased Recordings 1946-1953 (B&E 1980) | |
Audiophile virtues Agree with most of what you say. I bought it on some of the recommendations here and found it quite pedestrian and lacking the depth I hoped to find. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Helen Humes – Sneakin' Around (Classic Jazz 1978) | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Patti Page – Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte (Columbia 1965) | |
Smallish room speakers You might consider adding a pair of REL T5x to your KEF LS50 set up. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Marcy Lutes – Debut (Decca 1957 mono)These old recordings are almost lost gems. Perfect software for vintage gear. Blessed. It doesn't get much better. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Elly Stone - S/T (Columbia 1969)Revisiting this and boy does it sound so much better since I added the springs, the Lambda 25 tube PSU, and the Croft RIAA-RS phono. Such a compelling voice. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @bkeske BTW, congrats on the Comets. @reubent Nice deal. If the Fluance phono amp doesn't do it for you, try the Little Bear T7 or Schiit Mani. Both on Amazon and returnable. | |

Tube Amp, Preamp upgrades -- what did you do that improved your units? Look at Miflex films as a competitive alternative to Jupiter/Dueland. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Been running my 1950’s NOS Western Electric cablesAs good as they promise, tinned copper can't allow all the info through compared to OCC/OFC/silver etc. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Doc Evans / Knocky Parker / Albert Nicholas / Earl Murphy / Gene Juckem – Reminiscing In Dixieland, Stomps And Blues Vol. 1 (Audiophile 1959)The color of the brass in this lovely recording puts to shame every solid state recording made since. Reco... | |
Horn speakers are really bright? Dig Sophie Zelmani. Garage sounds better! I don't get the "too bright" thing either. Unless it's searing your ears off, or just plain messed up frequency response, you can't have enough detail. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Harold Budd, Elizabeth Fraser, Robin Guthrie, Simon Raymonde – The Moon And The Melodies (4AD 1986) |
