For me its the first or very early LP's of: Allman Brothers - "Allman Joys" "Idyllwild South" Santana - "Santana" 200 g reissue Emerson Lake and Palmer - "Emerson Lake and Palmer" and, Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO
We always write what we play and I realized that not playing also defines some (non)listening circumstance. It has, in fact, been a no-music evening here. Not necessarily quiet, but one of those without music. It happens from time to time.
I bought a new (to me) Pass Labs XP-15 phono stage and have been trying out different cartridges with it. My Denon 301 MKII sounded really nice with it. Then on to the Van Den Hul MC Two Special. I had a hard time getting this one to sound as good as I know it can. More experimentation later with that one... then on to the Nagaoka MP 500. Sounds very good!
Listened to a somewhat worn copy of CSNY Deja Vu and it sounded really nice and played pretty quiet.
All listening done on my Technics SL 1200 MK2. I love that the Pass has so many loading and gain settings and they are relatively easy to get to without having to remove the cover.
