| Box Set Outer Sleeves @slaw Thanks Slaw. They have sleeves that go up to AP UHQR. Their sleeves only fit to about 1.33 inch thickness. Need something that goes 1.75 to 2.0 inches. Not sure why this is such a difficult search.😵 | |
| Box Set Outer Sleeves @arcticdeth That site does not look safe. My computer says "Danger Will Robinson". | |
| Advice for a new analog system For that money, check out the Bergmann turntables. Modi or Galder models. They perform superbly. Several options for cartridges. Their linear tracking arms are excellent. Make sure you get a good tube phono preamp. The combination of a Bergm... | |
| Experience With Linear Tracking Turntables Thought I would update you all on my original post from March 2021. I invested in a Bergmann Galder Air Bearing Turntable with an Odin Liner Tracking Tone Arm. Simply an amazing turntable and arm. So black, so quiet. I put a Sumiko Palo Santos... | |
| Cartridges My "premium" cartridge makes every LP sound better, even the crappy mid-80's pressings. Old 1960's folkways sound great too. A good cleaning and a good cartridge really make a difference. But a great turntable is a real plus. Having said tha... | |
| Hocus =- Ansuz Sortz - Pocus @ozzy I agree, the websites that carry these Ansuz / Borreson products are not very helpful. But any dealer who carries them, will be able to get them for you. My dealer is just signing on to carry them, and I can given you their contact inform... | |
| Hocus =- Ansuz Sortz - Pocus Thanks @ozzy My dealer will long them to me to try. I think I will give it a shot. | |
| Ultrasonic record cleaners I use the Audio Desk Systeme. It has its issues. But I think the rotating brushes, added with the Ultra Sonics work great for older dirtier LPs. I have noticed many of my high school buys sound great after a cleaning. And I do like the ease of... | |
| How many people do you think have the same DAC, amplifier, and speakers I bet specific dealers in a town sell the same system more often than we think. Many dealers have set ups in their showroom that show of brands, the people fall for THAT system. | |
| Shave your CDs I’m pretty sure they discontinued making this some time ago | |
| Mood lighting for listening Do the tubes on my McIntosh equipment count as mood lighting? 😆 | |
| Chime in if you bought a second table that cost a fraction of your main table. I have a high end turntable (Bergmann), and a mid-line turntable (MT5). I always thought that I would keep the mid-level table for playing the older LPs from high school and other LPs in rougher shape. Problem is, everything, regardless of vin... | |
| Why Music Has Lost it’s Charms (Article) I think we have heard this lament time and time again, as others have said. I’m a vinyl guy, but couldn’t live without my Tidal-Roon combination that exposes me to new music daily. There is a constant wave of great new music coming out consistent... | |

| Hot Rats I was lucky enough to see Frank twice a year during my formative years. Started late with the Bongo Fury tour. Saw him at the Park West in Chicago. Holy Smokes, was that fun. Love the Hot Rats, Waka Jawaka, Grand Wazoo era. Amazing compositio... |
