With my VPI MK. IV, outboard motor, thread drive, TNT 3.5 platter/bearing, I find the 90v sounds/works best @ 33 rpm.

Listened, and this is yet another excellent title from MOV. 
Stillpoints LP Isolator Record Weight
Pkoegz: I can only try to express what I hear in my system. It replaces my original two-piece BDR(clamp). That (clamp) kept the vinyl tighter/flatter to the platter. If I didn't have positive results with it, I'd sell it and buy some lps. The fact... 
record store day: missed the CAKE
I made a "late" effort just for the one copy of the "Cake" box at my local store. I was denied! I watched the lucky guy walk out of the store with it.I feel your pain dude. 
"New" Beatles Mono Catalog Release on 180gr Vinyl
Mofimadness: I just had a thought... Is "Revolver" the only lp you had a disagreement with my reviews here? Just listened again. In my system, not as open by a margin that anyone would notice in my system. Veiled and dynamically suppressed. Again,...

Honorable mention: Rural Alberta Advantage "Mended With Gold". 
Stillpoints LP Isolator Record Weight
FWIW, here's my personal results using the Stillpoints LP I.Increase in transparency would be the best one-word term to describe it in my system. This has an effect on everything.Increase in micro/macro detailIncrease in resolutionTransient respon...

Something has bothered me for quite a while. I'll ask the question and disappear.A while back Frogman responded to a post I made on the subject of the regulator I am using stating that he was surprised I could hear the difference between my stated... 
Stillpoints LP Isolator Record Weight
I know you all really know what the Stillpoints LP I is/does. Still (hah,hah), I think calling it a record weight doesn't describe this item accurately. It is really a device that provides a way for resonance to flow out of the lp/platter, reducin... 
Terry Reid
Based on what I've been told.. when HE turned down that position,,,, He recommended Robert Plant. How awesome is that for rock trivia?? 
Best Rock Album of 2014
Lucinda Williams "Where The Spirit Meets The Bone" !!! Wow, wow, wow!!!On vinyl. I have great respect for this great American (female) equivalent to Neil Young (IMO). Her best yet! Vinyl people, I cleaned it and had quite a bit of reservations. Cl...

Mofimadness: (Sorry folks, I thought I'd make a recommendation out of the thread subject... )Fran Healy "Wreckorder". The frontman for Travis... he breaks out with a lp that is perfectly constructed and executed. Among his admirers are Paul McCart... 
"New" Beatles Mono Catalog Release on 180gr Vinyl
Thaluza: I don't know your system but by your willingness to even post here says a lot! The German MMT was by my research the best sounding MMT out there also. Based on this, I'm even more glad I waited (so) long to get this, the best lps out ther...

Mofimadness: Here's another artist. Aoife O'Donovan "Fossils". This lp (from yeproc records) is a stand-out. I've read nothing on this site about her. Allison Krause covered one of her songs on "Paper Airplane" a couple of years ago. (The original...

Mofimadness: Yes, I try to watch that show. Really cool! I actually saw Ricky Scaggs there around a year ago. Some really cool acts. If available, check out the Ben Solee show. After watching it, I ordered all of his stuff on vinyl.
