What is the best solid state amplifier you have ever heard?
I had a Bedini 25/25 about 25 years ago and I agree it was the best. A friend of mine was doing renovations for a lady in Manhattan and she threw it out with her garbage. My friend saw it and asked if she was really throwing it out and asked her i... 
Should I keep the Turntable or sell it?
I'm no turntable expert, but I like Rega turntables. I was considering one myself and was comparing the RP3 to the MOFI Studio Deck. I wound up getting the MOFI Ultra Deck + M which was more expensive, but I really like it, except for the cover wh... 
Impressed by Pangea Audio AC-9SE
Upgrading power cords is a big difference in sound quality. A friend of mine bought a Pangea pc, after I explained the difference a good pc will make, and he is thrilled with it, especially for the price.

Lee Ritenour Stolen Moments. Six String Theory is good too, but different styles of music and many different musicians. If you like guitar this is very good.

Take up drums at age 56?
I watched a few videos about the fulcrum and holding the sticks properly just now, and some were good, but they did not explain that the three fingers ( your middle finger to your pinky ) are not supposed to be snug on the stick. They are supposed...

I forgot one thing. of course the first thing you have to learn is how to hold the sticks properly using the fulcrum. You can look it up online.

A practice pad and a metronome is essential. Learn how to read music. Start with the syncopation for the modern drummer book which is a beginner book. You also need to learn basic exercises and rudiments. After that just practice as much as you ca... 
Rega RP3 or Mofi Studio Deck ?
I don't hear any difference in sound using the Auralax with the Mofi. It sound the same as it did without the platform. I first tried some inexpensive isolation blocks, they helped a little with the footfall problem, but I noticed a slight loss of... 
Rega RP3 or Mofi Studio Deck ?
Can't go wrong with a Linn. I had a cheap project Debut 3 as my entry back into vinyl. It was one of the newer ones and you could change interconnects. Great for the price but moving up to the Mofi was a drastic difference. The Classic was another... 
Whats on your turntable tonight?
