  1. @K5SS Sansui was the first amp that I purchased I regard all of them a good choice, in fact I still own a Sansui AM FM receiver Info on your unit https://classicreceivers.com/sansui-5000x
  2. I’m sure most members will know that the ears feel vibrations if they can’t hear an actual sound This is also true for the 5 senses as they work together to form the whole picture So I would like to pose a question If a blind person does not have sight - then hearing and smell is enhanced to compensate
  3. A video to help you understand the difference between the two mediums the
  4. Found it @wdecho @
  5. I am sure that I posted a video several pages back The technician was testing the audio range of Record & CD Guess what medium won Mike can probably find it for us
  6. That is true about Springsteen Thinking back did they also have great covers of Bob Dylan as well Edit I have found the list https://www.setlist.fm/stats/covers/manfred-manns-earth-band-1bd6ad28.html
  7. This is one of the best tracks on the album
  8. Today’s spin is sadly my last Manfred Mann album in the collection It was great to revisit this band as I enjoyed all the albums again Not sure why most pundits overlook this band as they are every bit as good if not better than most bands of their day Artist - Manfred Mann’s Earth Band Title - Chance Album ID - L37462
  9. My La Scala are a DIY build They have double thickness side walls And 3 braces at Top - Middle - Bottom 
  10. I alternate between First Watt -M2 and Hand Made Weston Acoustics amps from Australia My amps were a custom made design they were built with tube rolling in mind - 4 types can be used http://www.westonacoustics.com/ Here are some photos Both hand built by Earle Weston When I say hand built I mean hand built as he also winds his own transformers This is the main amp and has an output from 6 to 14wpc depending on tubes used ( KT88 tubes in photo )    And this is the preamp with inbuilt DAC and headphone amp 
  11. Next up is also a great album A little earlier than my last spin - this album was released in 1972 This album I believe is the first release of the “Earth Band” name change and new band members Artful Prog with a rock twist at its best - a very nice album  Artist - Manfred Mann’s Earth Band Title - Self Titled ID - 6308086 On Philips 1972 
  12. Although I like all in my collection, this album is probably my favourite Manfred Mann’s Earth Band Slightly shorter songs but with full impact and conviction shows Super tight and great musicianship Artist - Manfred Mann’s Earth Band Title - Nightingales & Bombers ID Bronze 24337 1975 
  13. I have this album in the collection
  14. It’s something I can’t explain But I have never purchased a Rolling Stones album
  15. King Crimson playing- that is cool 😎
  16. Thank you for the compliment good sir
  17. With all the modifications My La Scala are taller than me Please Note - My components have changed since this video was taken a few years ago
  18. For La Scala owners
  19. The Marantz is probably better than the Rotel 😃
  20. I am feeling your pain However the sound issue may not have been the bands fault Tuning and sound setup is normally performed by other technicians and sometimes the venue may only allow their own people to use the equipment
  21. Look at those Garrard 401s with tangential tonearm’s 👌
  22. Spinning now a traditional rock with prog leanings album from 1978 This release is dominated with keyboards and guitar I’m sure most members will know this band and songs Extra info This album was part of a purchase I made a few weeks ago I was surprised that it was a sample gatefold record that Discogs say is from NZ Suprised that it’s as new and has the promo literature inside, this includes a story of the band a magazine clipping and a B&W photo See photos Artist - Styx Title - Pieces Of Eight  
  23. Now you are teasing Mike @KROCK
  24. I myself currently have 3 Turntables A Garrard 401 idler drive - A Thorens TD147, belt drive - A Revox 795 a Direct Drive Mike also sold a 20 year automotive project But he can tell you all about it PS Also nothing wrong with country Ita a precursor to rock and roll - some of the best guitarist’s were country musos
  25. Very nice TT indeed @wdecho Enjoy the music and post the records you spin so we can all share the vibe
