    How Some Folks give someone a hard time over something they have zero experience with is just wrong. Just human.

     

    Have to get on the waiting list before 2-11 and you'll get a code to be able to get a ticket or two. Darn I made a promise and it's going to be six miles up the boulevard:(

    Don't care that they're old at all.

    Re Rolling Stones cover in above post 

    Who approved that photo on the album cover 😳

    Mick had his eyes closed 😑

    That struck me immediately, but it has a very natural character, the Stones were still boys, the album is from 1964

    @MicroMara The folks at this forum were welcoming to me too!

    It's all about the common denominator here, whether it's the Reference RF 7 MK II that you're improving or the stock Heritage Heresy II that I enjoyed for thirty years!

    We're all Klipsch brothers and sisters here!;)

    Now if I had your technical prowess and knowledge I don't even know if I would mess with my F IIIs at all, very happy with them and the small sub! 

     

    It is of topic but a short answer

     

    YES, I feel really comfortable here now, but I really had to struggle in my RF7 MK II Moddy Thread to report further. The Nasa Contact Enhancement Shitstorm was hard on me, and everything that was really important was left out. I now look forward to completion. I think I'll be done with the whole construction in a week. Thank you so much.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Size_Fits_All_(Frank_Zappa_album)

     

    The album features the summer/fall 1974 lineup of the Mothers of Invention, with George Duke, Chester Thompson, Ruth Underwood, Tom Fowler and Napoleon Murphy Brock. One track features bassist James "Birdlegs" Youman, who stood in for Fowler when the bassist broke his hand while on tour.

     

     

    Album contentEdit

    The album features one of Zappa's most complex tracks, "Inca Roads". One of Zappa's heroes, Johnny "Guitar" Watson, guests on two tracks (flambe vocals on the out-choruses of "San Ber'dino" and "Andy").[5] Captain Beefheart also appears under a pseudonym.

    once Zappa said ..." music is the best " and it´s still valid....I miss this brilliant musician

    Many thanks 

    I have a start to finish build thread on those 

    You may have a look into the thread " the queen is dead...long live the queen"  in technical modifications 😉

    I may have mentioned this before 

    One of my favourite instruments is the Clarinet 

     

    This is a golden greats compilation and the clarinet is the star 

    I may have played & posted about this album a while ago, but it’s great to listen to it again

    Title – Golden Hour Of Clarinet Jazz Giants

    In addition to the great records you show and ...... I think your 3 way  DIY crossover is great .. with wax coils, fantastic work

    Guten Morgen friend,

    Many can be bought for the $150 - 250 range. I went for a more substantial, branded unit because: 1. wanted a two year warranty 2. would like to pass it on to somebody else when and if I'm done with it. Mine degasses the first five minutes of runtime, then runs in sweep mode constantly. The spinner is a Vinyl Stack brand. It was over $600 with the ultrasound being half off retail and the spinner with 25% off. So it wasn't cheap. Already got $80 cash back from my used LP store just so I could kick $25 back to my brother they would have given me $105 store credit. I'm looking at this as a good decision with what's coming my way and not as exorbitant as it seems because of my turnaround $ already with a small portion of the records. I kept half of what he's brought already with several gems in there! 

     

    My brother was given four or five hand-made crates full of LPs by a friend of his even though he just listens to Christian music on the radio and streaming it.

    This is the image he sent me that freaked me out back in October or November.

    He brought me a one foot tall stack a few weeks ago that I have gone through already.

    I cleaned my 200+ that I already had and it was a major improvement on many of them!!

    Hello JohnJ. It flatters me very much that you call me a friend. Thanks a lot for this. I'm honoured. I have never known the Ultrasonic plate washers from their practical application. I only know the classic vinyl washing machines, which also cost so much money. I think that these Ultrasonic machines are a good alternative to the classic machines because they clean the records without contact.

    Just spent a week restoring two hundred or so.

    Prices on those will be going up like the Analogue Recordings labeled ones did.

    Good morning, it is 7.52 am in Germany. I once saw that you used a water bath ultrasonic system to clean the records. I saw that the Chinese offer something like this for around $ 100. How much does such a plant cost in america?
