| New Beatles Box Sets Zaikesman, Not to belabor a point but what I find most interesting about the original (pressing) sound is well, that that is the way the band intended it to be. So to my liking, I find it more emotional and up front, a little rawer, a little more... | |
| LAST Record Preservative. Do you believe? Not a single record I own will get LAST put on it, short of a few used records I purchased with this stuff already applied. With record detail information as micro fine as it is in a groove why would you want to slather over it with a coating of a... | |
| New Beatles Box Sets I'll take the UK Parlophone CD's for my money. If you can't have the Parlophone, Odeon, or lastly the Mofi OMR vinyl IMHO these are the next best. I have compared them to each of these vinyls and they are not half bad. Why would you want the Capit... | |

Tagyerit the only bad selection is the one you didnt get in this Fantasy 45rpm catalog IMHO. Buy the titles you love, then try to buy the rest. I signed up wit... | |

| Isolation platform under US 500 for CDP The Neuance platform is a bargain and an excellent device. I employ one under my Linn Sondek Lp12 TT and also have tried it under my CDP and will soon place one there permanently. Ken Lyon of Neuance is a great guy to deal with as well and as Tvad... | |
