Barry posted:Speaking of the LP120, does anyone that has one feel like they've benefited from an external pre-amp? Yes. While I am not an "audio guy", I definitely noticed a difference when selecting Phono on the LP120 and then running it through a small phono preamp vs. using the Line mode.

http://www.brian-eno.net/halfspeed/index.html I have original pressings of Warm Jets, Taking Tiger Mountain, and Science, but my credit card came out at light speed for the chance to upgrade my EG pressing of AGW. The only other Abbey Road half-speed I have is Simple Minds' New Gold Dream which sounds utterly fantastic so my hopes are high.

I found a copy of Switched-On Bach for $1.50 but my cartridge is broken so I can't listen to it. That album is astoundingly hard to find online despite all the stuff I hear of it.

Anybody have any experience ordering from https://store.nin.com Impulse bought two of my favorite soundtracks (Lost Highway and Natural Born Killers) and Prick's first album. Was just curious what the turn around time on them would be since their support section doesn't seem to mention any times.

The Devo release-of-the-year is up for preorder now. This one is a repress of Recombo DNA, which was a small Rhino CD release from 2000. It's a good companion to the Hardcore set since this is mostly demos and unreleased tracks from later in their career. Not really my favorite stuff, but it looks like a nice package: http://store.futurismoinc.com/product/devo-br-recombo-dna-4xlp-3cd-br-emergency-codes I'll wait and see if it ends up cheaper for US buyers next year. Right now it's $75 to import it.

I had signed up before this announcement was made so I never got this one. Thank you. Half of me is disappointed that I won't see them til August. The other half is at least thankful that he cares about the quality of the product.

Not quite vinyl, but just as pointless a dead medium to have an interest in: My parents are about to move to Florida and my Dad has a crate of these reel-to-reel tapes from the 1960s and 70s that he doesn't want to take with him.  He has the choice of giving them to me or to the dumpster.  From a purely sentimental/historical standpoint I actually like these "mixtapes" he has as opposed to store-bought albums. These tapes were made by himself and some of his buddies when they were over in Vietnam  So goons: do I save Englebert Humperdinck and Perry Como? And no, there is no player included so I can even listen to these, assuming they are even still listenable.

I can part ways with one or two, if you're fine covering a few bucks for shipping. I have no idea how these will sound, so I'm curious to find out if there's even anything still on these tapes.

BigFactory posted:There isn't a bad song on best of bee gees. I have it on record. Their early stuff is sadly ignored compared to the (still good) disco era. Also have one reel to reel. It's a recording of my dad's high school band. My grandmother saw an ad somewhere that you could send in a recording and they'd turn it into a record for you. The group went down to the local radio station and recorded a handful of songs using the one mic and primitive recording technology it had. The records came back warped. Someone later recorded from the reel to reel to a cassette tape. They're pretty decent, singing a handful of Beatles songs as they had just hit America and they obviously couldn't figure out all the lyrics of House of the Rising Sun.

So. I have an issue. The wires what came with my cart, all the black ends seem to be crimped shut. They absolutely will not fit on the connecters. Is there a secret thing I'm missing, or did I inexplicably get a gently caress-You set with my new cartridge. I've tried to pry them open, to no avail.

I went to check out Beverly Records on the far south side of Chicago yesterday. If you're looking to add about 30 copies of In Square Circle or 10 copies of Now and Zen to your collection, this is the place to do it. That store is where records go to die. Still worth the time to dig around a bit but not worth going out of your way for.
