So I met this woman who had a record collection to sell, which she eventually gave to me for free because most of the records were trashed except a few one being this one: 69’ Eldorado by Lisa Ballentine. I got home and looked it up and this thing last sold for $299. She has a folksy sound like...
Man its been a minute since ive been here in N&G talking music but a lot has changed and ive acquired many great jazz LP’s. So i’ve been hitting many estate sales and i wenf to one last year which was really unbelievable. So basically what happened was many records in the ad leading up to this...
It’s funny as someone who used to hit up a lot of Goodwills years ago, I have found records that have jumped in price from like 5 years ago. I’ll post pics later in this thread because I’m moving my records to a bigger room in my house I’m a bit busy but I’ve had stuff that I thought sounded...
First off it’s great to be back here posting. I’m all over social Media and neglecting what’s important but no more….

first off WHATS UP GUYS?!?! Been a while and glad to see Hifi guy still doing his thing. So great read and I wish I could fit these in my room but I am still Rocking my 80th Anniversary Dentons and I swear coupled with my Marantz 2285 no matter what I throw on sounds amazing.

Yeah that was probably me. Funny you remembered I missed all of last year posting on here. Anyway I’m back now and putting N&G back on my Home Screen on my phone....
Wow been awhile guys but I’m back! Anyhoo just ordered a Hexmat which I’m getting tomorrow and I will review it in relation to how it sounds on my Technics 1200-G
