Whats on your turntable tonight?

Montepilot,

The Tallis Scholars performance of the Allegri Miserere is not particularly rare and I see it show up from time to time. You might consider monitoring the monthly fixed price sale lists from Mikrokosmos and Ars Nova.

And thanks for your kind comments about my posts.

montepilot,
Looking forward to you joining the fray. It's always nice to have another vinyl enthusiast along. I’m driving Coincident Total Eclipses (with tubes) and employ Israel Blume’s IC’s and TRS speaker cables with great success. No less than two hundred hours of break in were needed though. Ouch!

Rushton,
That was my only regret in visiting your splendid hometown to see a Paul Cézanne exhibit in 1996. I spotted, but then didn't have time to see the Rodin Museum and do it justice.
Hey, I haven't heard comment from you on the result of the amp stands the two of you were auditioning some weeks back. Did they prove out, are they keepers?
Happy Listening!

Hi Foster, the Walker Audio amps stands are indeed keepers! Inserting Valid Points under the butcher block in lieu of the sorbothane improved the already good results yet another material degree. Lloyd had offered the sorbothane as a lower cost option, but Ann insisted that we should listen to the full component stand as Lloyd intended it to be. She was right, it was better. I never cease to be amazed at how EVERYTHING makes a difference and how much the details matter.

Rushton, Thanks for the record finder tips.

R f Sales: I'm discovering the painful break-in process myself. No getting to the promised land without going through the wilderness!
