Hopstretch Posted November 17, 2009 Report Posted November 17, 2009 Wait, so how many sources do you have now? Three nice DACs, multiple TTs it sounds like. You make Monkey look like a piker!
deepak Posted November 17, 2009 Author Report Posted November 17, 2009 some highlights in the box Duke Ellington - This Ones For Blanton (Fantasy 45) <- damn you Baguette for posting that needle drop. I had to seek out the vinyl after that. Not really cheap Lightnin Hopkins - Goin Away (Fantasy 45) Bill Evans - Inerplay (Fantasy 45) Still really hoping the Bill Evans AP box comes out, but AP and SH have been very quiet about it Steven Wilson - Insurgents (limited edition) Miles Davis - The Great Prestige Recordings box set. Nice box, crappy booklet. Over priced (IMO) at new price.
Dusty Chalk Posted November 17, 2009 Report Posted November 17, 2009 ...Makes me wish I had a DD or idler that could easily switch between 33 and 45 rpm.I'm with VPI -- this is probably belt drive's biggest strength, IMHO. Or you could just get multiple turntables and a skipjack.
deepak Posted November 18, 2009 Author Report Posted November 18, 2009 I'm with VPI -- this is probably belt drive's biggest strength, IMHO. If you have speed controller or external motor pod.

Dusty Chalk Posted December 13, 2009 Report Posted December 13, 2009 I'm not usually into that kind of music, but when I am, I really like Holly Cole.
Fitz Posted December 13, 2009 Report Posted December 13, 2009 Used a little of my xmas money on myself to raid the Telarc clearance sale on oldies.com again.

deepak Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Posted December 17, 2009 It is a great time to be a jazz fan (supposedly another 80 Blue Note titles from Music Matters). I just wish there were more blues reissues. Just picked up this one used, Fantasy 45.
