I have a couple dozen titles and they really are incredible, but I paid release price or less - but given the delta now, the juice probably isn't worth the squeeze, I also remember them being in the bins at a lot of local LA stores 8-10 years ago, ...I also wish they weren't gatefolds, but...

wow....thats some really great news. shit, does that mean I need to buy Misty again...ugh. I miss my VPI cleaner here and can't seem to pull the trigger on a Humminguru, do they every do discounts or have codes? hanawa-san is a really nice man as well

anyone have any codes for humminguru?? thinking of pulling the trigger - TIA

thanks...entirely counteracted by the fact that I bounced my cart when adjusting vta the other day and im pretty sure the cantelever is f"d...also im trying not to buy records. at all. any more. ever. but its hard not to support ogawa-san, even tho these are now 4600Yen...the Evans is noisy...

obi day....

I actually played golf with his brother the other day, totally random ....public golf in LA can be super entertaining and you can meet a lot of famous people too ...really interesting guy

In Fiesta is in mono - which is really interesting...I may have to buy even though I hate buying doubles...although I have a bunch...ugh...more records...

apparently there is some drama about the box they did, whether its not true AAA...ive never heard it but considering those three albums are some of the best recorded and sounding records around...who knows, maybe they should just enjoy the music... that being said, I have originals, so I win...

people seem fired up about the Impex TBM reissues - I only have the two later ones that were recorded to PCM digital in the first place (which sound/look amazing) - but the Impex team is the old Cisco team, so they have a serious existing relationship with the TBM catalog - it would be...

saw this as well.... https://bbemusic.com/product/j-jazz-free-and-modern-jazz-from-japan-1954-1988-2 that's pretty rich, but my record covers book collection has a j-jazz sized hole in it....

also very interesting - like that they are mixing it up a bit - BG has been cutting some of the big city pop reissues that have come out in the last few years (and I also think Japanese consumers are starting to ask about these things) from digital - there isn't a lot of clarity on the TBM...

for the most part agree - but they are definitely variable, some are better than others, but this probably has to do with the recordings - these are cut from digital files, and that's not something I care about in general (as long as it sounds good) also - was wrong the Think! reissue was not...

this is interesting...in fiesta was reissued by Think! disk union about 10 years ago as part of master tapes series and sounds seriously good...wonder what the source is on this one as Project Re:vinyl is lawson/hmv - either way its a screamer and the samples fly everywhere

good to hear! and glad they are finally starting to explore the catalog a bit....im lucky to have some version of all of these so will make the call once Im back in Japan, but actually enjoy the mixtape element of it........enjoy!

Yeah, ive got a bunch of MM that I guess I was lucky to buy on release, still prefer things to be replica of the original - like doing replica Unipaks on some of the late 60s/early 70s funky titles....but they are premium, and most consumers have never seen an original so...anyone can comment...

agree...im pretty over the gatefold thing for the sake of gatefold...for reissues the goal should be to replicate the original as closely as possible, IMO

the jelco tonearm does use standard connection - thanks kvetcha no need for additional alignment or distancing?

Hey Everyone - Quick question about swapping head shells - I have a Dr Feickert with an Ortofon/Jelco tonearm that appears to be identical in geometry to the one on my new Technics 1500c (quality not withstanding). I have a number of carts that are mounted on removable head shells that are set...

revisited this tonight on my main system and its definitely not bad...
