| Lp's you'd like to see remastered ECM promised to reissue and remaster Arvo Pärt´s Tabula Rasa (that was the opening album of their New series) for it´s Anniversary, but still has not done so. I have not lost all my hopes, even tough the original is not bad at all. | |
| Distortion on Giant Steps? since this is a bit of a Coltrane thread I thought I share with you a concert experience since yesterday. talented young singer Jose James and Belgian pianist Jef Neve paying hommage to Coltrane (full concert of more than 2h, gets better at the en... | |
| Miles Davis - Kind of Blue - current pressing I´d be happy to hear comments as I´m into buying a definite edition of this record as well (shame on me, but I do not have any earlier releases). As to the quietness, as much as I understand it depends also on the quality of the original analogue ... | |
| Records that made you reassess your music beliefs Like for Sit, for me this kind of album is Pearl Jam´s "Ten", it was the first CD I bought (after very careful consideration as it was truly expensive considering the era (post-Soviet collapse of economy and political system) and now after having ... | |
| New ECM Vinyl I will copy from another community an interesting Keith Jarret article reference (also on his ECM recordings): http://jazztimes.com/articles/16040-sounds-of-jarrett | |
| Hi-End for Black Metal? i am in no way into black metal much more, but as regards musicianship in metsatöll, the key figure behind it is highly qualified musician and a multi-instrumentalist - a student of Veljo Tormis and by his own words a probable successor of his job... | |

| VPI Scoutmaster static Thanks a lot for a very detailed instruction, will definitely try and will post the result for future generation / archives. Suggestions are much appreciated. | |
| Rega P3-24 Vs VPI Scout. I went from P3 to VPI scoutmaster and had a good WOW! what´s good is that there will be quite many upgrades available so you do not necessarily need to change the TT to improve (buy with as many extras as possible if you´ll go this route, it will ... | |
| VPI Scoutmaster static before parting with a rack (that was custom-made, although not really audiophile), do you think would a layer of "something" between the rack and TT could solve the problem (like a layer of anti-static floor vinyl, glass, laquered IKEA shelf etc)?... | |
| VPI Scoutmaster static no carpeting, pure linoleum floor. i was indeed wondering if the wooden rack might be the source of problems, will see to it, maybe put something in between the rack and TT (there´s indeed an IKEA around). the ground was hooked to the RCA junction... | |

| Led Zeppelin Mothership well, i suppose - it´s the best cd version heard, but still not as good as vinyl version. just a compliment to cd. still waiting for mine to arrive, but have good feeling about it. | |
| New music on vinyl In the same vein you should try Shook Magazine, which followed/took over now finished London magazine Straight No Chaser (possible to order via website for around 10 USD and Myspace, not yet having fully operational website). Of US record shops th... | |
