Choosing an SUT?
Call Bob Sattin at Bob's Devices for a Cinemag 1131 with switchable gain. Do you currently run the MC input on the Chinook?

Sarah Vaughan ‎– All Time Favorites By (Mercury Wing 1963 mono)I'm lucky to have a NM copy.

Various ‎– Still On The Line: A Tribute to Jimmy Webb (Flannelgraph 2015)Jim Toth (Wooden Wand) gifted me this when I bought Death Seat. He has a song on it. The record has grown on me. Worth checking out. Some odd mixing which is a little quirky....
