Full Range Posted May 25, 2017 Author Share Posted May 25, 2017 My wife is watching cooking shows on TV So I'm listening to music Don't get me wrong as I love eating nice food - but overly stretched out cooking shows are not my cup of tea / coffee I had this album in storage - along with other records that have damaged covers but the vinyl is still great Been a long time, probably over 30 years has passed since I played it last It may be a spin out of left field and not a band many would remember Artist - Nektar Title - Remember The Future 1973 A prog rock style between Yes and Genesis 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWSmith Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Good morning vinyl spinnin' friends Enjoying the posts here, I should be eating breakfast and making my lunch, BUT, I just went through the past SIX pages of postings instead. Thanks for the compliment on the DUAL Mike, it was a fun project, and my dad was nervous doing all the angular cutting and being careful NOT to blow out any wood! It was tricky, because of the way it gets fitted to the two PLASTIC halves, and it slides on in place! All worked out in the end. I also noted those posts with the REGA tonearm you put up I will have to get more Rega photos on this section! Full Range, I enjoy all three of Linda's, Nelson Riddle LPs, lucky I was able to find the trio all SEALED on eBay (at different times...) I will have to look into that direct to disk Count Basie recording next... I know we love our vinyl............you know what else is coming back? Reel to reel tape AND the machines that play them !!!! Look out R to R has always been my favorite analog medium... After all, it IS the source of which most all our vinyl comes.... All have a nice day................this is going to be a VERY SPECIAL weekend here in Music Hall.....Can't wait to share more photos.. Enjoy the music......... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my favorite might be "What's New?" but I guess I'll just have to listen to all of them again! One thing is for sure... that 2015 remaster, "Just One Look" is a horrible remaster! I will criticize it every chance I get because I don't think they should be let off the hook for saying that it sounds better than ever. Great songs and great voice though! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full Range Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 John Lennons last album release in his lifetime with Yoko Ono Its been said that after a 5 year exile John Lennon spent those years in domestic bliss, being a husband, raising a baby, and baking bread. In reality this is 2 albums in 1 - Two artists with seperate styles and tracks stitched together in alternate drops Artist - John Lennon & Yoko Ono Title - Double Fantasy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So don’t slap an ATR reel on the Sears Silvertone R2R you picked up for 10 bucks at a garage sale. This tape is designed for high-speed (15 ips) machines, like the UHA Phase 12. At $24,000, this modded out Tascam BR-20 is a ridiculously over-engineered piece of gear. The platform is a Teac deck that gained a reputation in the '90s as a studio workhorse. The UHA modifications, however, are so extensive, both cosmetically and mechanically, that the only thing the Phase 12 has in common with a stock BR-20 are its dimensions. From the "hyper pure" (99.99 percent) cast silver wiring, to the electromagnetic shielding made out of mu-metal (an exotic alloy used to make satellites), the attention to detail is nuts. Even the fuse is overkill squared. The Quantum Red is a ceramic fuse made with a rare alloy that’s been zapped with a Tesla coil running 2 million volts. UHA owner Greg Beron says it’s OCD engineering like this that make the Phase 12 superior to the world’s best turntables. AKAI GX-747, William Franklin via Flickr. It was Beron’s earlier Phase 11 deck that audiophile bible The Absolute Sound pitted against one of the most highly regarded turntables, the Proscenium Black Diamond V. When the shootout was over, and all the sonic dust had settled, the six-figure turntable — a linear-tracking, air bearing (yes, like an electron microscope) precision instrument with more industry awards than the Honda Accord — had been vanquished. To say this caused a stir within the vinyl-centric hi-fi community is putting it mildly. If your prized possession — a $120,000 turntable rig that TAS recently praised as "the highest-fidelity phonograph on the market" — had just been kicked to the curb by a tape deck, sedatives and grief counseling would be in order. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
