Can a great system make a mediocre recording sound good?
Play “ocean” by JB3 and then the live version. Totally different.  
Is it ok to stack LPs horizontally?
Most turntables play slightly warped LPs fine. What they cant play are compressed recording grooves. LPs weigh a ton. Storing them flat can press the groves. vertical is the only way to go.  
Best double live vinyl?

I notice the differences in recordings much more as my system improves. Take the good with the bad. Doesn't mean a bad recording isn't an awesome song, concert etc. just enjoy that your ears can hear the difference.

Analyze everything? Awareness? Doesn't mean you have to buy new stuff but what audio geek isn't listening carefully?

Also major rookie mistake on my end. I did a manual bi wire and didnt take off the speaker jumpers until a smart bro n law threw that at out. A literal game changer
