| Turntables that are still made in Japan? I've got a Technics SL-1200G that was built in Japan, though I'm sure that Malaysians can do just as good a job under Technics supervision... | |
| Album Reviews @sbank - Another Stranglers fan - YES!!!! | |
| Are tubes psychological? @oldhvymec - That's Quay Lewd, dude! Yeah, I've seen the Tubes loads of times here in San Francisco, especially during their earlier days in the 70's... Got some great photos, too, but I don't know how to post them on here without a URL.... | |
| Share albums where EVERY SINGLE song is good Way too many to list, but here are a just a few of my faves that meet that description.... 'The Chaos' by the Futureheads 'The Dreaming' by Kate Bush All 10 albums by Kristeen Young.... | |
| Majority Of Your Listening Is Online Streaming Service, Do You Buy CD's Or Vinyl Any More? I stream. I have CD's. I have LP's. I have no 8-tracks. It's all good. Also agree with @femoore12 - that's a main reason I stream as well; I do like having physical artifacts. | |

| Can Anybody Give An Example Of? @kb54 - it's as much a Manfred Mann song as 'All Along the Watchtower' is a Jimi Hendrix song - these songs were totally redefined by these artists, becoming big hits, and become something more separate from the original, I think.... | |

| Elrog 300b vs we300b Merry Christmas, smodtactical! When I first got my Eddie Current Studio B headphone amp, it was initially suggested to me that JJ makes ones that are good value for the money. They were unavailable anywhere at that time, though, so I went with Go... | |

| burn in - how important? @millercarbon - indeed! When I got my Herron phono amp and line-stage amp, Keith said they'd need 150 hours or so to sound their best. As you say, they sounded just fine out of the box, but Keith was not wrong.... | |
| Current Best Value In A Pair of Quality 300B's? When i got my Eddie Current Studio B amp, I got Gold Lion 300B's for them. I'd been recommended the JJ's, but they were out of stock everywhere at that point. When they came back in, I did get the JJ's for about the same price, and they were an i... |
