Moderators Travis In Austin Posted June 30, 2015 Moderators Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) I love the convenience of accessing all my music from my couch. Typical response for a Vanderstein-like speaker owner.Klipsch owner buys vinyl for the attachment to the music despite the expense and inconvenience. Great cartoon FJD. Is that from Playboy, the New Yorker? Edited June 30, 2015 by dwilawyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Personally, I can do without them. I love the convenience of accessing all my music from my couch, in a fraction of the time it would take to get up and change an album. I have a tendency to switch songs even half way through - because of the convenience most likely. I'd more likely sit and listen to the whole side of an album out of laziness even if I hate 3 out of the 5 songs on it. precisely this. i had about 50 albums and record player in my early to mid 20's. it was fun, but i have no deep emotional connection to the format. album covers doubled as a way to separate the stems and the seeds. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I agree Travis--that is a great cartoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fjd Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Great cartoon FJD. Is that from Playboy, the New Yorker? I can't remember where I downloaded it from. It may have been in another thread here. To go with my vintage set up, a while back I picked up a nice looking Thorens TD124 that is now on deck for a rebuild at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Travis In Austin Posted June 30, 2015 Moderators Share Posted June 30, 2015 A new company in Portland, Oregon has opened up with 6 presses churning out about 2,000 records a day. Vinyl is continuing to make its come back. http://www.opb.org/news/article/cascade-record-pressing-starts-production/ Great post. I highly recommend going to their site and watching this video about what is involved in the mastering process for vinyl. A vwry good basic primer, and some great clips of an Ampex ATR.

oscarsear Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Ohhhhhhhh, a genuine pissing contest. So much for making everyone happy. Bad form for bringing up contents of PM exchange. As a moderator you need to use more finesse and diplomacy in my opinion. Mark's humor filter is broken and I'm not obligated to take PM threats with a stiff upper lip. Say it in public or don't say it at all - I've got nothing to hide. Some folks do not grasp the difference between discipline and punishment. For them the ball peen hammer is their only management tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schu Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I bought 3 new LP's this week alone. Europe is a major hotbed of Vinyl manufacturing and sales... I get quite a bit of stuff from the eurozone, it's only proper to spend some money here at home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
