    Different day, different mood:

    Almost got to see them in the late 80s they were south 240 mi, then north of me by less than 150 miles.

    They had an almost digital-like edge to their sound even when it was LPs and cassettes!

     

     

     

    Hi @JohnJ

     

    I saw them in France during the Faith tour in 1981 or 1982  : SUPER !!! Very Very Great Bass Sound on A Forest  🤩

    A beautiful concert by Donald Byrd at the Olympia in 1958: I like the style of this reissue: the record as originally in 58: the Brunswick labels are magnificent = see my photos, the beautiful original photos of JP Leloir, the quality of the cover, the glossy front photo, the "50s" style back, the antistatic lined quality "SAM" sleeve... Music, I'm discovering at the moment: I like

  4. Hi,

     

    Thank you @KT88 for the details on the bass adjustment centered at 30Hz

     

    Yes @Von Hoellert the McIntosh preamp and amp go down to 20Hz and even lower. This is the bass adjustment action which is centered at 30Hz

    Try a McIntosh preamp or integrated amp at home with your Cornwall IIIs and play around with the bass setting. You will enjoy your beautiful Cornwall III and finally appreciate beautiful deep bass and present :)

    Hahnaka Harry/Santa came early this year. They left this under my Tree.

    Hi,

    @KROCK Me too Santa came early 🎅

     

    For mine, I bought a Bouon Tokyo Ultimate THT-291 from Japan. It is made of Hanenite, a material that resembles rubber, but which does not have the same characteristics: it absorbs energy and does not rebound. Audiotechnica uses it in its high-end cartridges and its AT SUT 1000 transformer. It's less noble than your expensive and super Boston, but for the price of around $70 it's a good mat 😍

    Watch from 1:00 how Hanenite absorbs energy: Hanenite ball does not bounce

    Although there is music in this, it's  about a race. The Pikes Peak Hill Climb... on gravel and dirt. Ari Vatanen won and was undefeated for five years. The award-winning Climb Dance film, created by Jean Louis Mourey, captures Ari Vatanen's 1988 record-breaking run at the 1988 Pikes Peak Hill Climb Event, Colorado, in his Peugeot 405 T16

     

    I posted this a long time ago, and it is still spectacular.

     

     

     

     

    Hi,

    In 1988, I was in Sochaux, for the construction in the huge Peugeot factory of a new factory for the 405 car. I was doing earthworks to divert the river which passed through the middle of the industrial complex. I had an office in Etupes, a town near Sochaux and there were Peugeot Sport workshops: I see trucks with covered sports cars and sometimes 205 WRCs in the parking lot. A few months after the 1988 Pike Peak I saw Ari Vataneen's 405 at the Peugeot Museum in Sochaux which opened that year in 1988: it was huge with its black fins, there were also the 205 WRC and the 205 Paris -Dakar yellows

  7. @KROCK Today the 1200 and 1210 all models: MK7, GR2 and G are now manufactured in a Panasonic group factory in Malaysia. It's less noble than the Made In Japan before, but for me it doesn't matter and I know that Malaysia has a very modern appearance and Panasonic has a lot of efficient factories like that. More than 30 ultra-modern factories around the world, it seems to me.
