Whats on your turntable tonight?

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... :-)

Rush,
You're right, it's NOT a good thing. The "Soular Energy" LP after it was more like it should be. Maybe my ears were still in work mode for the Bach. Needless to say, I was not a happy camper with a 10 foot high cello resonating around the listening room.

The arm continues to change with each LP, so I think we have a way to go yet. I noticed an even leaner bass presentation today with the Mendelssohn (only about 7 hours on the SST), but the Ray Brown had the depth and snap you would expect. The VTA is nowhere near dialed in yet.
Next up, the ultimate Slipknot1 test of soundstage:
Holst's "Savitri"

For tonight, still in relaxing mood. It's cold and the holiday always make me feel lonely and slow.
- Ravi Shankar/Song for everyone/1985 ECM Production
- Smetana/Ma Vlast/Kubelik with Vinna Phil./Decca

I just bought a turntable recently and am listening to "The best of JIM REEVES", and also some Christmas albums.
