Late night session last night. Starting the day with some ease listening and black coffee.

Sadly, My experience with different tube equipment (or tube sets) is limited to my (now) two AR preamps and an old AR phono preamp that needs servicing as it developed a nasty hum a couple years back that a tube change didn’t fix. Really having a good night though. Spinning all kinds of...

My original post is on previous page. Replacing my well loved 35 yr old Audio Research LS15. New LS28SE sounds awesome but my LS15 also did the job so I bet it would benefit from a new tube set. Only one hour in so its to soon to make any sound comparison but overall 1st impressions are I am...

UPS made me wait till 5:30 but the Audio Research LS28SE is in house & making sweet sounds. Arrived safely and repacked like new. 440 hrs showing on tube meter. Not a mark on it that I can find. A beautiful demo. QC card shows it was OG factory packed 7/11/23. So about 1 1/2 yrs old.

Arrived safely in mint condition. Nice.

A couple solid new releases.

I try not to hang out in this forum very often. :-). But, I just took the plunge and ordered a replacement for my well loved (and still playing/looking like new) 35 yr old Audio Research LS15 preamp. Found a demo AR LS28SE (advertised as pristine 🤞) with under 500 hrs on it from an authorized...

Been looking forward to this AAA reissue. Still have my well loved 1st pressing bought new. Spun this so many times when I was just coming of age. At 15 if u would have told me I’d be kicking back in 50 yrs retired & spinning this record on a killer stereo u might have got a semi-interested...

Why stop now. :-).

Deluxe looks great u just have to wait a little longer. :-). I got lucky. I was filthy cleaning out an old commercial building when my reminder alarm went off. There is one spot out front that gets a decent 5g signal (sometimes) and it was working well at that moment. I was sure it was...

I was pleased I scored in the high speed test press preorder Friday for Vol 2 so gearing up with a Sat night replay of Vol 1 released in 2020.

Finishing up some solid lazy Saturday new arrivals when my wife headed to town for a bit so…. decided to pull Jane from the metal racks.

Played both of these a couple times thru since they arrived. Indie Kraut rock.

Been watching the mixed reviews on the new SW (and resisting streaming it) with great interest while I waited for my orders to arrive from UK. Happy to say for me this one really hit home. An immediate SW solo favorite where u set every thing aside, sit in the sweet spot, and close ur eyes...

Yes, there was a window in time when they really did know how to mass produce really good sounding records.

I miss the days when new vinyl could be had for under $3 bucks. But, the sad truth is I was really short on $1 bills at that time in my life. 😞

Been geeking out comparing versions. This is the promo version on transparent audiophile vinyl. What a voice. I think my wife and I saw Tracy on this tour in a small college auditorium.

This one is a really nice listen.
