Your favorite LP nobody has ever heard of Here's one I'll bet few of you have ever heard of:'Water Bearer' by Sally Oldfield, Mike Oldfield's sister.Her music is folk pop with lots of bouncing tinkly guitar, piano, light percussion and synthesizer. The lyrics are typical early '70s earnes... | |

Alternative for VPI springs? The Herbie's Tenderfeet are meant to be placed under the entire unit, not in place of the suspension springs. But it is entirely possible that they would work well in that capacity also.Thanks for the idea. | |
FYI: VPI HW-19 motors Surely there must be some appropriately sized damper which can do most or all of what the Sims dampers do. Does anyone know of an alternative?I have a 19-IV with springs and I have always wanted to try non-spring suspension. | |

Modern Shahinian Obelisk MR.FRAZEUR1:Why should I not 'get you going' on Hawks and Diapasons?I, for one, would not at all object to hearing your thoughts on them.I myself have never heard Diapasons nor the new Obelisks and, though the basic designs have been unchanged ove... | |
