Vinyl - Record Spinning


Full Range

Recommended Posts

Our last day in Dinant, Adolphe Sax' birth town. Can't wait to be back home and listen to some nice records. 

In Dire Straits' live album Alchemy, there's a nice intro with a sax to the song 'Tunnel of Love' .

Sincere greetings to the Klipsch Community, from Belgium!

Looks like you had a great time 

I need to introduce you to a nice Fedora hat, you would look dapper with one

I've been wearing that straw hat when on holiday since 2015. So, if you should wonder, it is *not* a statement (Corona Extra is a beer...) about the current pandemic! I like the cooling airflow of a straw hat. That's not saying it makes me look cool, though. 😎😉

But that Fedora hat, I like it!

I know Corona is a beer 🍺 

So we are down for a fur felt Fedora hat  

 

But for everyday use in a light straw hat 

You get a Fedora style Panama hat 

 

( I have over 50 hats and caps ) 

It makes the Audiophile man 😎

Can´t spin or listen to any kind of musik this weekend , my Marantz integrated , which i used as preamp for my mono tubes , has a problem in its electrical circiut. It keeps shutting down .

This safety circuit currently prevents major damage to the device. I have to send the Marantz for service. Beginning of next week, a friend lends me a preamplifier from Camtech ( UK ) then I can listen to music again.

 

Beeing not in a good mood right now ....smilie-gross_323.gif

Back home from excellent holidays in the Belgian Ardennes, Dinant. 

After a pleasantly short drive of 2 hours, I decided this would be the first album to listen to: Cream's Wheels on Fire. Appropriate title, not? 

 

Klipsch Heresy, Leben CS300 and Pro-Ject TT / Ortofon OM10 / iFi Zen Phono amp... Delicious combination. Missed it a lot.

My Marantz PM5005 shuts down when the speaker cables are touching. (!) 

Are you sure the problem is with the Marantz, and not somewhere else? 

I disconnected all cables including speaker cables , except the power cord , so it can´t be a cable touching somewhere. Thanx for your suggestion

Released after his death 

Re mixed and reworked to bring out a rock funk direction from the Hendrix Tapes

Very interesting read about that JIMI release. What "Walterdigstunes" has to say enables me to comprehend why the Hendrix family took such a tight grip on his stuff before I decided I needed his records.

I can only imagine what it would have sounded like before douglas put his thumb and asterisk on all that!

I had a beautiful pair of headphones but found them uncomfortable to wear 

If I was to get another pair the cups will need to be very large so my ears fit inside them
