| Mahogany Rush If you were a teenage kid learning guitar in the mid 70's, Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush was one of the bands to follow, alongside the usual suspects.I was too young to catch the 60's gods in their prime, so FM, Robin Trower, and a few others-Jo... | |
| Marvin Gaye "What's Going On" new 45RPM MOFI UD1S I enjoy reading these threads of audio geek pressings.It inspires me to see if I have a period press, and play something I may have not heard for while.Pulled out my 1971 Tamla TS 310 copy.

| The quest for the hot stamper or is it a myth "Captain Fantastic, I really wanted the newer looking and much quieter sounding copy to sound better. But it was no contest.

| Leather finish This will help getting opinions:http://hansenaudio.comAccording to the site, it's faux leather. Pleather. Based on its appearance, I'm guessing it has an M.S.R.P to match the "high end" vibe?Because of that, I say...FAIL. It should have real leath... | |
| FM vs. HD RADIO.... anybody think FM is better? After hearing a REL Precedent and Marantz10B in ideal conditions,I can't imagine HD being more convincing.Having not heard a home HD broadcast, I'm quite curious. I don't know if I could give up my humble Mac MR71, for a "modern" SS tuner. | |
| The quest for the hot stamper or is it a myth millercarbon-At least you can return it if it doesn't play as advertised.What grade is it...hot, super hot or WHITE HOT?Unless the copy you purchased hasn't been taken off the site, I see a super hot for $250. Considering an average copy will go f... | |
| New Rega Planer 8 (P8) Turntable - Apheta 2 Cartridge Combo - Thoughts "Sure they are new and no disrespect to Rega owners but not sure the Apheta 2 is the greatest cart either."fsmithjack-I think final opinion on the cart is premature , because you DIDN’T hear it through a tube phonostage. Doesn’t necessarily need t... | |
| New Rega Planer 8 (P8) Turntable - Apheta 2 Cartridge Combo - Thoughts fsmithjack-That system certainly wasn't entry level, although I personally would have gone tube phonostage.Still curious if you've heard a table based system you liked?20K worth of table,cart, and phonostage.No fancy cables and doodads, can sound... | |
| No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need This has been an entertaining read.The thread title was enough to know what's coming...What kind of "relavent data" is necessary?
