Whats on your turntable tonight?
Pulp ‎– Different Class (Plain Recordings 2014 RE 180 [1995])A masterpiece and must have in every collection. Not exactly audiophile but essential. The original LP goes for $500. I have the original cassette!

@tomic601 Glad you like it. I don't have the Newport NY gig but I do have a few Jay McShann who plays on it. I see the MoFi goes for $250. I'd never pay that!

RIP Jim Steinman.(Then there's Ted Nugent. Karma.) 
Anyone (everyone) care to throw a dart?
Price is not the arbiter of good sound. Smart buys and common sense help. Listening to and tuning your rig are critical factors in getting the best from your source. The most important thing is a great recording. I guarantee you a 1967 Audiophile ... 
subwoofer with zero punch... help
and a decent amount of cheap sound absorption foam. This is NOT helping your overall sound quality. The stuff distorts the sound and robs the life from the music. Been there, done that.
