| Preamp Deal of the Century Brad-Thanks for posting here and giving everyone an update on the situation.Maril555-Well said! No one should discount another's impressions of what they are hearing in their systems. If you are hearing the glare - at the end of the day all that m... | |
| Magic Diamond vs Airtight PC1? Gregadd-Sorry to hear that. Mine was the classic catch the cuff of your shirt on it while adjusting the belt. I watched it in slow motion as it tore off, tumbled through the air and dropped down onto the platter. I'm going to keep it in a little g... | |
| Best of Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan Excellent choices above to represent these great women. I'll just add my favorite Ella Fitzgerald recording: "Clap Hands, Here Comes Charlie". Great renditions of "Good Morning Heartache" and "Night In Tunisia". | |
| What song turns back the clock? "Baba O'Reilly" and "Won't Get Fooled Again" from "Who's Next" College - girl I had a crush on - her favorite album. Wound up marrying her...."Pleasant Valley Sunday" by The Monkees. Thought the Monkees were the coolest, hippest thing around then.... | |
| Magic Diamond vs Airtight PC1? I use the Magic Diamond Blue with the Walker Audio Proscenium Gold TT in a vinyl only playback system. From a technical perspective, it is a medium output MC (0.38mV) of medium compliance. The body is milled from a solid chunk of metal and the sty... | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? A 12 or 15 year old Music Hall CD32. I use it as I expect my digital playback to sound like digital - I'm not disappointed... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I received an email from Brad Sunday 3/11 stating that the umbilical "will be on it's way shortly", apologizing for the "unforeseen delay"..... I will post once it arrives.On another subject: I just finished replacing the stock feet on both the PS... | |
| DEADHEADS...TOP 5 SHOWS..... Rballdude-Are sure it was November '73? Pig Pen died in March of 1973.Europe '72 tour was one of Pig's last (April 1972) as he was already quite ill by then.....My first show was Watkins Glen "Summer Jam" in July of 1973 and PP was gone then. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Interesting. Not less than 2 hours ago, I sent Brad an email to inquire about my order for same. I ordered and paid about six weeks ago too....His last communique to me said he would notify me when it ships. Maybe the wait for the upgraded umbilic... | |
| Basis Debut Mk v or Walker or Brinkman ? Strapper211-Congratulations! You will not regret your decision. I have had mine for just about a year now, and still get goosebumps every time I listen to LPs. Lloyd and Fred are great guys to work with and I consider them to be good friends as we... | |
| any audiophiles or audio enthusiasts in BUFFALO NY It's nice to see all you Buf'flos posting. I was born and raised in East Aurora. Reside in the Philadelphia area now though... | |
| Basis Debut Mk v or Walker or Brinkman ? Like the others above - I am a Walker owner, so my comments should be taken in that context. The Walker is the least fussy playback system I have ever owned. It holds its VTA, speed, VTF settings rock steady. Music does get altered in presentation... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Pink Floyd "Ummagumma" (Harvest STBB-388)"Apocalypse Now" Soundtrack (Elektra ELK 62 025)Some pretty eerie music on these two LP's..... | |
| deadheads: Best sounding Dicks Picks....top 5 "Hundred Jahr Halle" is an Arista lable commercial release. Great recordings from the epic trip to Europe in '72. I believe the Oaklahoma show you refer to is from the Zoo Amphitheater, 1980 or '81. I have the tapes but not the DP.I guess I am par... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century 1 meter is a little over 3 ft, about the length of the stock umbilical (at least on my unit). A 1 meter length from Revalation is 269.00. If I do the math, .5 meter is about half the length of the stock, not a third. I agree though, that Mick desi... |
