I'm still down loading my vinyl to the PC play list, and making observations at the same time; the sonics on this $36 dollar 180 gram record are not as good as the original record. Think about it; it's easier for a lathe to cut through something ... 
They Almost Never Quote A Price , Why?
By the way, I have something "Panasonic" that I would rather repair than replace, and Panasonic told me they have shops within a lot of zip codes that do repair. I called the one near me, and got what I consider to be "normal" repair prices. 
They Almost Never Quote A Price , Why?
I notice a lot of people are scratching around trying to fit a square peg in a round hole; face it, the middle class (those who are struggling to keep their head above water) have been priced out of the "high end", and that's all I'm going to say ...

Jafant, you're good advice might be history; I've got a CJ preamp that needs repair, and CJ was too expensive, I contacted a repair shop in Canada that was going to repair it, and they told me CJ wanted to charge too much for the parts; their advi... 
Old Amp vs. New Amp
I know nothing about Class D amps, but I know new high end amps are too expensive, and people like CJ cost too much to repair now. (I know because I own CJ). If you're not on a loose budget, you're between a rock and a hard spot when it comes to...

Alex, those painful memories also brought back memories of some of the best times. Girls are never so beautiful as in those early and mid twenties, plus they are very active. The comments under both Lenny Welch songs say it all; read them, we all...

That looked good but this was what I heard at the same time when it came out;      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7xrQY_FLM4

Since it's a true story and you asked, I'll tell you.It's easy to fall in love but almost impossible to fall out of love. I was 18 when we met, and stayed together for a couple of years; then we broke up over something silly. (she was the same ag...

Ghosthouse, I've got Vince and Bola Sete on record, but I can't find the record, and I'm not certain, but you can not go wrong with those two if you see them together. Although Herb Alpert sounded much different, it was the same tune. Here's ano...

Hail, hail, the gangs all here; they even brought some good music, current too.Ghosthouse, your music kind of reminds me of one of my favorites;  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tR4tHq1F_EYI am enjoying the music.

Apparently there is some current jazz that I consider a buy; I rate this 4 1/2 stars out of 5. That Cuban "Nawlins" connection works real nice.

I just discovered a record that was recorded in 60, but the entire album has this early 50's sound; King Pleasure can take you back to the good times of "Be-Bop", and the saxes are smoking, the sound is reminiscent of James Moody and the "Bird".  ...

Frogman! How was the weather in the Caribbean? Or was it The Med this time? (that's short for Mediterranean) Well it's good to see that you're back.Since I'm not a historian, but an "aficionado" with feeling, I'm only curious about what I feel i...
