  4. Ok, every now and then, I have a need for super pressurization of my big listening space!  So, with earplugs in, and the R8 in UltraLinear mode volume at 12 O Clock, you see the DB meter.............106 DB-A  (NOT C) and I am 20 feet back from the Forte 4's :lol:.  So clean and clear, the gear answers the call to HEAVY duty use! :emotion-21:IMG-2212.jpg

  6. Good evening my long lost friends here in Paul's forum!  Been away for a while, but returning with a brand spankin' new double LP set from 'The Midnight'!  This was a preorder from Spotify in a clear vinyl with white and grey streaking, very cool.  Here is a photo of the LP.  Red on Red on Red :emotion-25:IMG-2205.jpg

  8. Moving on..........The living members of YES have been leaving tributes to their friend and fellow musician that recently passed away.  Today, I landed on a new youTube video with Steve Howe paying a tribute to Alan White.  He played a tune from this album on his acoustic (Turn of the Century).   Prompted me to play this tonight.

     

    Purchased back in 1977 when it was released from my library, 'Going for the One'...IMG-2172.jpg

  10. Good evening friends!  Enjoying being back home after the convention week away.  So, I am listening to side 3 and 4 of the Steve Hackett LP, one more to go after this, but I will save that for tomorrow evening.

    If I recall back when I was in primary school ( before high school ) as a young boy I think we took a school excursion to the Sydney town hall and I am sure I have seen it 

     

     

     

    Very good Paul !  Thanks for more information on Sydney, guess I had my facts a little mixed up which organ other then Boardwalk had the huge pedal stop.   Yes, we were awed by the Boardwalk organ only a few days ago.  (we were there two days actually, part of our convention program).  It was really great being able to hang out with the crew all week that is directly involved with the instrument.  Even got some recent concert recordings from the 'in house' studio (on USB thumb drives) which was a nice gift to take home.

     

    The organ is under restoration and is just over 50% finished which is a MAJOR accomplishment!  I took many gigabytes of photos and movies throughout the week, and I will dig a few up to share, but still offloading the camera card, then transfer to main house computer for final storage.  

     

    I will try to visit this evening and spin up some vinyl with you all.  The Rega P6 will be placed back into LFMH1 today, swapping with the UTurn.   Need to complete my listen of the Steve Hackett LIVE triple vinyl set tonight.  :smile:
