Whats on your turntable tonight?


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
slipknot1
It's late, but lat lp
- Julian Bream: Encores/Fernando Sor/ Federico Moreno Torroba/ Sine Qua Non

Beautiful guitar playing. The strings are "alive". Every note actually have their own meaning. Great recording!
OK boys and girls, here's tonights line up:
Mendelssohn "Mendelssohn In Scotland "Fingal's Cave"" Maag/LSO (Decca SXL 2246) Speaker's Corner 45 rpm reissue
Bach "Suites For Unaccompanied Cello Complete" Starker (Mercury SR3-9016) Speaker's Corner 200g reissue
Ray Brown Trio "Soular Energy" (Pure Audiophile PA-002) 200g blue vinyl

Arm is starting to dial in. VTA will be needing some attention. However, in a d'oh! moment, I have managed to lose the set screw for the counterweight. I have been crawling around the floor with a Maglite trying to find the little bugger to no avail. I have both a large and small counterweight for the arm but the screws are not interchangable (that would make too much sense)

One thing is for sure: the JMW Signature arm sounds NOTHING like the stock arm. As good as the soundstage was, it is much wider now. The Bach Cello Suites almost sound movie monster size huge.
"The Bach Cello Suites almost sound movie monster size huge." - This is a good thing??? Sorry, Joe, couldn't help myself wondering. I can just see it now... Like something out of Fantasia, a march of 12 foot wide cellos... :-)
