| Drinking Songs playlest... What am I missing? Pat Travers Band - Snortin' Whiskey and Drinkin' Cocaine Skynyrd - That Smell | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? Eliades Ochoa (guitarist for the Buena Vista Social Club) at the Music Haven in Schenectady NY on Sunday August 11, 2024. About 500 folks were treated to an hour and a half of mastery. He played only one other date in the US in NYC at the Sony H... | |
| One Example Please Stevie Toddler - 'Last Time Forever' | |
| MoFi v/s UHQR ^^^Nope. Already own the AP 45 versions of the entire Doors catalog, and they sound mighty fine. As I recall, they were $40 or $45 each upon their initial release back in 2012. | |
| MoFi v/s UHQR I've owned perhaps 75 different MFSL LPs over the past 35 years. Regardless of whether they were from back in the day (mastered by Stan Ricker and pressed on JVC Super vinyl, with the smiley EQ curve), or modern releases within the past five year... | |
| Lightening damage - any hope? Apple TV box is disposable electronics at best. Spectrum (bastards) will replace the cable box for free. The router is likely toast. I'd open up the Sony and Marantz and check the fuses in the switch mode power supplies with a meter. The probl... | |
| 100's of free Absolute Sound and Stereophile mags Good luck. I tried giving away a nearly complete set of The Absolute Sound around 15 years ago. I believe I may have posted it here, and at the Asylum. No takers, and I eventually trashed them. The only thing that did sell were my copies of ... | |
| Changing from European to American power supply on clearaudio emotion TT It's not so much the voltage as the frequency. A step down transformer can address the voltage. The frequency, not so much. This table uses an AC synchronous motor whose rotational speed is determined by the incoming AC frequency (60Hz in the U... | |
| What is the best solid state amplifier you have ever heard? "Berning TF-10 preamp, Berning EA230 amp." Both of which are vacuum tube based, not solid state. | |
| Just discovering i/o. Can't speak to the digital formats, but the double LPs sound very good, with excellent dynamic range. | |
| Is Ric Cummins still around? You mean of Rosinante, Room Lens, and Argent Audio fame? I still use his 'Pursang' interconnects in my system. Alas: https://rumsey-yost.com/2022/07/richard-f-ric-cummins/ | |
| AR-XB. Is it worth a new motor? If the motor is humming, and the motor shaft spins freely then it's likely the phase-shift capacitor/resistor assembly in need of replacement, and not the motor itself. This is an AC synchronous motor, with the simplest of control circuitry. I'd... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Muireann Bradley - I Kept These Old Blues | |
| Teres turntable motor problems I'd contact Thom at Galibier; he and Chris and Peter from Redpoint worked together prototyping those early tables, and knows a lot about their design . More than likely there's an issue with the control electronics for the motor/sensor assembly. ... | |
| Building a 100 album vinyl collection 3 must have albums are? @tony1954, You should also mention to the OP that an original, genuine pressing of Tool's "Aenima" will run at least $1000. There are many, many bootleged versions, but very few genuine articles. |
