@spiritofradio @Bkeske I have that same box Brian. Lovely music. Safe travels. Happy holidays.
Yes it is. Thank you James, and you as well. After the last couple weeks (busy busy) I would love to ‘hide’ alone with my vinyl and rig, but, mom wouldn’t like that much ;-)
I got a bug up my rear, (maybe just wanted to spend money 😁), and decided to buy a back-up cart to my Soundsmith Zephyr. Got a new Goldring 1042 from a gentleman on US AudioMart for a good price. Local, so picked it up from him yesterday after a meeting. Actually he sells and is a member here too.
Installed it on a headshell earlier, and checking it out. Gotta tell you, the Goldring is actually pretty darn nice for what I paid for it. Really has nice tone, dynamics, and detail. I now feel assured I have a back-up cart that I can actually enjoy. Tried out my old Grado Red with a new 8mz stylus, and just wasn’t pleased. The Goldring 1042 outclasses it significantly. Perhaps time to sell that puppy.....and look for something else to buy.... 😁
