| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw so hard these days to spend anytime listening. Got some new tubes for my Cary amp so found and excuse... DH does some great duets w/Roberta Flack too. Silky voice & some solid production. Stevie is well, Stevie! | |
| Thinking of trying "vintage" sound just for fun Have a beautiful all original (albeit painfully gone through and restored) Scott 222 Stereomaster from '57 playing gloriously with a set of Electro Voice Centurions. Can talk about the amp if you're serious. Breaking down this incredible vintage s... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Well okay so, Donny Hathaway "self tittled," Al Green "I'm Still In Love With You" & Stevie Wonder's "Talking Book." That's my Sunday morning vibe. Have any of these? It might be a good day to dust one off. | |
| Looking for a ‘’No braine’r Integrated amplifier under 7500 or so Been listening daily to an Audiomat, Arpege Reference and it's is without question the sexiest sounding, looking and all around fabulously performing integrated I have had the pleasure of using. It's exceptional in EVERY WAY! Now I've also played ... | |
| Killer used integrated for @mcondo - get a lovely vintage reciever... recently picked up a Luxman R-1050 and its extraordinary! Rosewood cabinet, lovely glowing meters so the vibe is right but, it PLAYS BRILLIANTLY! Can pick something like this up for $5-$600 so right in yo... | |

| Best Speakers You Have Ever Heard In Your Home I've had two really fantastic pair in my listening room... speakers have come and they have gone over the years but these two sets were/are absolute keepers should another member get their hands on a set. 1. Reference 3a Serie Master, Baccarat - m... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @reubent - yeah, that is a fun album. Used to pump it hard with my HS buddies. One guys old man would let him take his mile long Caddy and "Jesus of Cool", Bowie "Young Americans "Stones "Some Girls" Elvis Costello "My Aim is True" Aerosmith "Rock... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Pretty chill morning with Nick Lowe "Jesus of Cool" - XTC "Skylarking" and Big Star "Radio City." Nice trifecta especially Nick Lowe... "and so it goes, and so it goes, and so it goes, and so it goes, but where it's going no one knows" - 70's HS ... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Yo! @slaw... been streaming a bit but no time on the table until last night. Good to get away from it for a while then come back. Realize what you've been missing | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Ok so back after a pretty long hiatus,... several months since I fired the table, or a table. Still borrowing a Rega P3/Grado Platnum combo that's really nice. Anyway, Otis Taylor"Contraband", The Roots "Phrenology" and My Morning Jacket "It Still... | |

| Preamp recommendation Can pick up a used Sonic Frontiers SFL-1 linestage for $1000+/-. No remote but don't be a spud, get up and adjust the volume, lol. Change the single tube in the SFL-1 to the highest quality 12AT7 you can afford (I'm running a Genelex Gold Lion) an... | |
