| Led Zep Reissue on vinyl Gotcha. I didn't see the OP's comment about the Who. My apologies for appearing to be a thread nazi. Too bad you don't appreciate Zep. I didn't get Black Sabbath or Alice Cooper until recently, and have now gotten immersed into early pressings of ... | |
| Led Zep Reissue on vinyl Rockit- back in NY as of a week ago, at least for the summer-fall. Will follow up with you offline, i would love to hear your system at some point. Best to all, | |
| Led Zep Reissue on vinyl Guys: don't you think the endless debate over CD v vinyl is not only beside the point here, but moot, given that with these reissues, you can pick your format- vinyl, CD, Hi-Rez?Czarivey- were you actually serious that you thought this newest LZ1 ... | |
| Gingko Isolation platforms I did an extensive comparison more than a year ago of various 'footers' under the tube power supply to my phono stage. The differences were noticeable, and not all for the better. Among the products I compared were:Herbie's footers (made the sound... | |
| Kl Audio LP200 ultrasonic record cleaner insights I use both methods- AIVS No. 15, plus lab water on an old VPI using MoFi brush/pads, then into ultrasonic (I have the AD, which I bought just as the KL was announced). I buy mostly used, older vinyl and have found that the enzyme/agitation/lab wat... | |
| Any Allnic H1201 owners out there? WRM57 and I are dopplegangers~ I also ran a Steelhead for a number of years and rolled the tubes- found that NOS Teles gave it the most holographic sound using it through the MM inputs, and bypassing the gain control into a separate line stage. It... | |
| Led Zep Reissue on vinyl I'd be surprised (and delighted) to see uber quality all analog vinyl remasters of these, but I doubt that will happen for several reasons.* While vinyl has been enjoying a 'bump' it is hardly a determining format; leaving aside the condition of t... | |
| Led Zep Reissue on vinyl Just go to Hoffman's site- there's a ton of comparisons there with all sorts of pressings of Zep and other things. I've barely scratched the surface, and I'm hardly an expert, on Zep vinyl or other records- just done the research and listened. (I ... | |
| Led Zep Reissue on vinyl PS- on IV, i think it is Porky/Pecko not Piros mastering, but I'd have to go check. Not terribly expensive. | |
| Led Zep Reissue on vinyl I'm still waiting for mine to be shipped, even though I pre-ordered them (Deluxe vinyl, with the extra tracks) back in March. There are several threads on the Hoffman site going now, including one specifically for each of the formats. As the Rocki... | |
| What's your profession? Age? I probably responded to this thread at some point in the past. Practiced copyright law in NYC for 33+ years, semi-retired from the partnership of a large firm a few years ago to do other things (non-lawyer) in the music/film/tech fields. I teach p... | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? Austin gives you a million opportunities to hear bands, known and unknown- standbys include Redd Volkaert at the Continental (where there are some pretty serious jam sessions when other folks are in town); we caught Lady Gaga's act during SXSW- re... | |
| Matched & Balanced Can Kiss My Euphemism A similar approach was advocated by the designer of the Audiopax 88- which had two mirror image amp circuits in each monoblock and a pair of user adjustable controls to adjust bias- 'Timbre Lock' was the name of the feature. I had a pair of those ... | |
| "Mojo" Myles Mancuso Cool, I'll be back in the Hudson Valley around then, but not sure I'll make it to that show. I will look for him though. Do you ever go to the Turning Point in Piermont? David Lindley will be playing there in early June- if you haven't heard him, ... | |
| Got an LP cleaner you want to make money on? I did read your post. You said that the issue of detritus on a piece of vinyl was exaggerated and that you used a scope on your copy of Tapestry. My point was, in the instances where I buy new vinyl that is 'dirty' it is usually pretty obvious wit... |
