| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners ....I tend to post 'in pieces'.Just wanted to mention that the two lps I recommended earlier, even though they are or the 'digital age', in my view, are again examples of recordings done "right" as opposed to "The Nightfly". I can listen to them a... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Frogman: I really appreciate your "measured" responses! I, on the other hand, am quite the opposite. I know that I don't take the time to explain my position, so I'll give it a try here. Steely Dan: I think I am much harder on them, given their hi... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Before the night is through... I have a friend to thank for this one....Kim Richey "Rise" Get it, really, It's awesome!!!! It will cost you some $$$, but it's worth it! | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Somebody stop me... Suzanne Vega "Beauty @ Crime" dynamics in spades!!!! | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners "High Violet" = this lp gets better with the resolution your system is capable of. A 'GREAT' lp IMO. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Chris, Thanks for your forsight regarding sending the Acutex to Bruce for his impressions. What more can I say... here are some excellent lps to check out...(I hope there are "gals" reading this. Give me a call....)Calexico/Iron @ Wine "In The Rei... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Sorry for overwhelming.... I meant to share that I recently went to a evening called Music Matters with my audio buddy. I was 10' from Fremer. Our 'analog man'. He played some hi-rez files from his Continuum table. Some Joni Mitchell, Who, Rolling... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Dover: Your idea has my excitement level on a 10. Thanks, I will pursue this, separating the speaker crossover. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners A comparison: Put on a copy of Aja,(77') then compare it to Nightfly, 82", I think you'll get where I'm coming from.No comparison, IMO. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Chris: I didn't go back to review posts... from memory, my initial response to "Nightfly" being a lp we could all compare was, "it is one of the first digital recordings ever". I don't think my system is state of the art by any measure. What I'm c... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Everytime I've put on either of my copies of "The Nightfly", I took it off before the 1st song was through!This was for the purpose of listening to (enjoy), and I still couldn't get past it.As you can see, I'm very passionate!This is me. I think i... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners One last thought....No disregard to Frogman, ... I think anyone who listens to Donald Fagens "Nightfly" will hear easily that it is a digital recording! I LOVE the music but it's obvious!I'm not a pushover, but I am obviously a lover of well recor... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Here it is anyway,... I hope you all are receptive to music recommendations. After all, isn't this what it's all about?I have 3 here. They are presented in an order of sonics first, then my sense of what most will enjoy... I hope you enjoy! Get th... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Hey Chris: I can recommend some more female artists if you like. If not here, send me an email. I'm very happy you are enjoying the SC! | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Chris: Since you started this thread.... I'm really thinking of going McGiver on my TT. Discard the base @ plinth, which will result in a separate armpod. I know you'll agree with that, me too. Anyway, this is going to take priority over all my ot... |
