Whats on your turntable tonight?

Maybe you should be satisfied?

Very wise words Slaw.

You are most likely correct , good job I do not have the mindset I have read on some threads of late where some try to claim the Cart is 80% of the deal!
It does seem to be odd though that such a relatively inexpensive cart can best an up to $1500 cart on this table.
Yes I know I said all sub $1000, that's my cost, I do have one lomc that retail at $1495.

Funny old business.

On with the show!

The Age of Aquarius ... The Fifth Dimension.

@slaw - Curious to know if you own "Sweet Old World" as well as "This Sweet Old World". I've owned "Sweet old World" on CD since it's release and I bought "This Sweet Old World" when it was released on vinyl. 

I prefer the music/songs (arrangement, vocals, etc.) on the original. I prefer the sound quality on the newer album, but I do not like the arrangements, or Lucinda's vocal style as she has aged. I listened to the newer LP a couple of times and sold it. Just never warmed-up to the new style, having grown up with the original.

I always thought the original was sorta "Sweet". The re-make, not so much.....

slaw & uber,
I think you guys may be overthinking how the Vira arm works. It runs across the album due to VTF like any other arm. It just has 4 bearings (one one each end of the 2 tubes) connected by a "crossbar" at the business end which allows the tip to pivot & hold the cart alignment consistent across the entire album. 

More Fiery Furnaces. This was really a creative band, wish they were still making music together.
