I think 10% of my vinyl listening comes from the weeks leading up to xmas... Bing, Nat, Vince, and Ella all get multiple spins per sit down in the living room.

@topofthedial what’d ya think of year one? SloLow had a wild collection of jazz I snagged some good ones from.

Anyone going to the Rocky Mountain Record Show on Saturday?

Copy that. Hadn’t seen it at my local for a few years.

Saw Khruangbin: The Universe Smiles Upon You (180g) Vinyl LP is up again at TurntableLab - gonna grab it unless anyone else has seen word of other variants popping up today.

My pick 6 (my golf crew does this for every major, I won the Masters pool thanks to a Hideki pick): Brooks - Speith - Hovland - Fleetwood - Mcintyre - Brendan Grace Should be a fun weekend with lots of early morning coffees.

I love that this forum keeps finding ways to cover all my interests. Grandpa taught me how to putt at age 5, got my first set of sticks a few years later, then ended up caddying from age 12-22. Best job in the world, and if you have kids, I couldn't suggest more highly to encourage them to...

I’ll take it!

I’m late to the thread but if anyone sees a Toots and the Maytalls or maybe an extra Kenny Dorham, let me know! Thanks

@JohnnyCashFan Here's the full family: my restored 1974 Sansui Eight Deluxe and the Sony TT. The speakers to the left of the system are ADS L710's. They're not lookers at the moment (need a bit of TLC on the grilles and cabs), but they sound superb. Hanging out in the other room are an almost...

I'm told these came stock with the PU-114, no markings to say any otherwise. I've got no experience with the standard Jico, but I read a bunch of reviews of the SAS on Audiokarma and decided to bite the bullet. The highs are clear, the lows are tight, beautiful soundstage overall with this...

@Slimwhit33 you're clearly someone with taste, so let's start a club. Here's my Sony PS-2250, which I believe to be a close sibling to your 2251. It knocked out my Thorens TD-147 (another one someone would have to pry out of my dead hands), mainly due to convenience given our springy floors...

These really do it all well (similar to my Dynaco A25s). The 810s I found to be a bit boomy on the bass-front, and the 710s felt like they tightened it up properly so they found a permanent home. I ventured down the ADS rabbit hole when our kitten started climbing the original grilles on my...

Well, it's been a fun few days hanging with my new pal, a 100% up-to-spec 1974 Sansui Eight Deluxe. Ever since I found my second-owner 5000A and learned about the wonders of Sansui, I knew an Eight or Eight Deluxe would eventually find it's way into my system. After 3 patient years, I...

Yeah, the 5000A was the first piece of my system that’s lasted through speaker and turntable changes up until now. Of all the “mid tier” manufacturers, Sansui seemed to have figured out the balance between sound + design best. At least to my ears and eyes. I’ve bought Pioneer, Marantz, Kenwood...

Glad to see a fellow Sansui nut on here... If the shipping gods are on my side, I'll have a white whale from 1974 arriving at my doorstep Wednesday.

Well my latest update was a stylus switch. My Sony PS-2250 came with a Shure V15 type ii, the stylus looked fine, but it came from an estate sale so I knew it would have to be changed up sooner or later. I grabbed a JICO SAS stylus replacement and sheesh, this cartridge is singing. If anyone...

Adding a link here for anyone else who's excited about getting off the couch 14 times to listen to this in full: Grateful Dead Dick's Picks 36 (7-LP Set)

I’m liking @AnthonyI’s enthusiasm about this. Drop me a PM and let’s see what magic we can work.

Took a quick photo, hopefully this’ll give you a sense of what we’re working with. It’s a copy of The Cure’s Standing on a Beach, for those interested.
