These are a couple of albums i've listened to a lot these last couple of weeks:

Roy Orbison - Mystery Girl: This was the last album as a solo artist that Roy Orbison published in his lifetime (52...

... one of those posts that has no real answer! ;)

My best live experiences (those that spring to mind) have been:

Lou Reed in 2002, for the Ecstasty tour... on top form, his best album since...

Fluffy!

Ok, hate to say this, cos I love the man and his music:

Neil Junk

Quick update, Rob just passed by and left the stands and a free interconnect from John! The stands look fantastic and feel sturdy, my friend will be very happy!
Plus, Mr. Postman just delivered some...

:wow:
:wow:

I don't know what to say after all the generosity displayed in this forum. I'll have to get back on the Lenco offer and ask my friend, but I'll try and do a good job in convincing...

Ok, an update on the 100 quid hifi project:

Rob has kindly offered to pick up the stands from John's and is coming on Saturday to leave them at our flat. Apparently there are some extra goodies!...

No one here actually...

It's this guy:
...

You're very kind!
Unfortunately (for me and my friends), Cricklewood is too out of the way as the trip would mean a trip on the train from, at least, Woking where I live. But I really appreciate...

Wow!
Thanks very much for the offer... I just got my hands on some speakers before I read this post, although I don't know exactly in what state they are, so I'll let you know. But I will definitely...

Hey, thanks for your reply!
I'd been looking in greenhome but some of the items I have no idea about, so I guess it would be good to get in touch directly with Dave. I'll wait till I get the final...

ok, here's the thing, I've got some friends that I've infected with the vinyl virus (oh yeah!) who want to buy a hi fi system with a turntable as source and they've asked me for help... apparently...

Wow! Been amazed with the response, great band names!

The Bleach Boys
Rat Power
Paul Wailer

Just got back from London, finally got in vinyl Lou Reef's Masque Bleu!

Keep them comin',...

And the band played on:

Frank Zippo
Arcade Dire
Charlie Bronson Outfit

I think I saw a few of their gigs when I lived in Brighton...

;)

Flabba Abba?

Another one for the amateur mathematician:

Joy In Division

Well, just try...

The Rocking Scones
Kate's Bush
Peter Murky

Any more?

Ok, I'll try to make these self explanatory:

Stink
Eric Crapton
Pet Shop Toys

:gig:

Keep them comin'!

Hey I love those both! But you could argue that they are way different songwriters... what makes you single those two out? Similarities? Differences?

Yes! I completely agree. I'll bring the logs and gasoline... you bring the matches? Any volunteers for a "citizen arrest"? ;):lolsign::lol:

Sad thing is... I do really agree!

The Upsetters - Super Ape (1976): I'm not a huge fan or conoisseur of reggae/dub, but there are moments where I can enjoy with all my heart, soul, body and mind the work of Mr. Marley, Mr. Tosh, etc....

Well... I've got a friend who's a recording engineer and a big vinyl fan, but when confronted with the question "vinyl or cd?", he always says "I'll go with a good mastering job!". Which I guess, is...

Has anyone tried this under their SL1200... or other turntable? Could it be used to float it in a swimming pool and be the first aquatic DJ?

Are we supposed to feel threatened with the competition? :smoking:

wouldn't taking out the grommet change the alignment of the cartridge? That is, shouldn't you set it forward on the headshell, I guess, 1 mm? Could that explain the change in sound?

I haven't...
