| Guitar playing audiophiles, Martin or Taylor? Nice additions @stuartk! Another is Dave Edmunds & Nick Lowe, both playing J-200’s in the pic on the front of the sleeve of the 7" bonus disc (Dave Edmunds & Nick Lowe Sing The Everly Brothers) that came with the first pressing of the R... | |
| MoFi lawsuit @winoguy17: Really? I've received credit into my MoFi account for the titles I elected to keep, and a refund check for the title I returned. I used the credit to pay for a new MoFi release, Ruth Brown's Rock & Roll album. | |
| New In 2024 I just learned that Sam Phillips' 2004 album A Boot And A Shoe was released on LP last month. | |
| Guitar playing audiophiles, Martin or Taylor? I like the Gibson J-200, the choice of Emmylou Harris and The Everly Brothers. | |
| The Low Volume Loudness Dilemma Another approach is to use high sensitivity loudspeakers, which excel at playing music at low spl. | |
| Thoughts on the new pressing of "Bookends" lp from MFSL My copy of Bookends (my favorite of the duo's albums) is a 2-eye Columbia, and sounds good enough. My Bridge Over Troubled Waters is the Classic Records 1999 reissue, and sounds real good. I myself prefer Paul's first two solo albums to any of... | |
| Truly Stunning Vinyl Album @larryi: Yeah, UK Island LP’s are known for their good sound, particularly the ones with a pink center label. I have only one, the second Traffic album. I had a UK Island copy of TFTT, but it was a later "sunray" label Island. There is a YouTu... | |
| JD Souther has passed away Oops, I forgot about The House Of Blues on Sunset Blvd. There I saw Levon Helm (with his daughter Amy singing), Steve Earle with The Del McCoury Band (a night of great singing and playing), Chris Isaak, and Cheap Trick. And at The Palace I saw... | |
| HumminGuru Orbit Vinyl Record Static Remover Further thoughts: Considering it’s extremely low price, the Hudson Arm/Brush is certainly worth a try. As I thought about it more, a couple of things occurred to me. 1- If the Hudson Arm/Brush is used alone (with no other anti-static device... | |
| VPI TNT 3 @bhenry91: Congratulations! I’ve considered getting a TNT to replace either my HW-19 Mk.3 or my Aries, but it’s just so damn big! Which platter does your TNT have? It (and the first iteration of the Aries) came with one comprised of the fol... | |
| JD Souther has passed away @mofimadness: I’ve watched a few docs on the Laurel Canyon scene, but I’m waiting for part 2 and 3 of the one you linked. Hair Metal is of no interest to me . By the way, a couple of the guys in Guns N’ Roses worked at the Tower video store on ... | |
| HumminGuru Orbit Vinyl Record Static Remover @harpo75: There is a way to use the VSS Double Pocket sleeves on a triple gatefold jacket, I’ve done it. You put a Double Pocket sleeve on both the two outer gatefolds, with the tape strips on the flaps on the back of the jacket (you MUST u... | |
| Truly Stunning Vinyl Album Has anyone mentioned Tea For The Tillerman by Cat Stevens? The Analogue Productions pressing. Not an "audiophile" sounding recording, but "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder (on his Talking Book album) is a track that is very "punchy" sounding. On... | |
| HumminGuru Orbit Vinyl Record Static Remover Hudson Hi-Fi provides no proof that the goats hair bristles of their anti-static arm "discharges" the negative charge on the surface of the LP (or even a technical explanation of how that discharging is accomplished), transfers "something" into... | |
| Wanna take it to the next level? Buy MORE speakers! A cheap way to add fun to your hi-fi is to get one of the inexpensive surround sound boxes containing the Dynaquad system. David Hafler was a big fan, and offered a couple of different Dynaco boxes to create a rear channel signal. All the circu... |
