I seem to recall you replaced the Hegel with something else.
What are you using to power the S. Fabers???
Jazz for aficionados
Jazz for aficionados
I'm going to review records in my collection, and you'll be able to decide if they're worthy of your collection. These records are what I consider "must haves" for any jazz aficionado, and would be found in their collections. I wont review any record that's not on CD, nor will I review any record if the CD is markedly inferior. Fortunately, I only found 1 case where the CD was markedly inferior to the record.
Our first album is "Moanin" by Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers. We have Lee Morgan , trumpet; Benney Golson, tenor sax; Bobby Timmons, piano; Jymie merrit, bass; Art Blakey, drums.
The title tune "Moanin" is by Bobby Timmons, it conveys the emotion of the title like no other tune I've ever heard, even better than any words could ever convey. This music pictures a person whose down to his last nickel, and all he can do is "moan".
"Along Came Betty" is a tune by Benny Golson, it reminds me of a Betty I once knew. She was gorgeous with a jazzy personality, and she moved smooth and easy, just like this tune. Somebody find me a time machine! Maybe you knew a Betty.
While the rest of the music is just fine, those are my favorite tunes. Why don't you share your, "must have" jazz albums with us.
Enjoy the music.

Your memory is good. I went and bought a used PS Audio BHK preamp and a few weeks later, I bought a pair of PS Audio, BHK 300 amplifiers. All three pieces have a tube input section, so I have the ability to roll some tubes. Unfortunately, 5 of the six “new” PSVANE Art tubes that came with the preamp within just a few weeks, so tube replacement came much earlier than expected. |
the Hegel is a SS integrated and the PS Audio’s are tube input and SS output on all three pieces. I just plugged in the Hegel for the first time in months and it sounds terrible. I’m sure, that by tomorrow when all the caps are charged again, it will be back to its full glory.😁 Now for something Jazz related. Because I am breaking in the new speakers, I put on a three CD set of The Chick Corea Trio and let all 3.5 hours play. It has Christian McBride on bass and Brian Blade on drums. I liked about 98% of it. |
Yes; I know! That’s why I’m interested. ;o) Are you aware the trio released a subsequent 2 CD set ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCl9DCT01mY&list=OLAK5uy_lxxgYeLrgCLxAlNJEf2qu03l-CNar81Zk&index=2 |
