Nice work. For Palm Mall, I only went for the blue at GeoLullaby. Successfully. Barely.

These have been coming one by one. I spun the half speed discreet music last night and it sounded amazing. A friend of mine even commented that she didn't think records could sound that good. Wish I would have snagged a signed Airports in time. Has anyone saw these in local stores yet?

Mine also plays fine. That stinks that some people got bad copies. Why don't they just keep this album in print? Enough with the limited releases.

They show in stock again....

I'm going back & forth over ordering. $38 shipped to the UK. But also hidden at the bottom of their mail out confirmation that their reissue of Island Raiders is coming in Feb! "Along the same lines as the throw-back OCS line-up, we are re-issuing "Cool Death of Island Raiders" this coming February...I know that there's been some misinformation and conflicting information about this but it is in the queue and getting ready for you, just a little reminder."

Aye its not a bad job by any means last week I literally spent two hours making origami for a display....

The HD6XX also have a relatively high impedance - I think around 250-300 ohm, so they'd likely need/benefit from a headphone amp. That being said, you can run a 1/8 inch to RCA cable to the Magni if you want to listen to digital, or even a Chromecast Audio out to RCA for digital listening. Also, semi-related to all of this, with high impedance headphones you'll hear a lot of details, but also a lot more of the surface noise, crackles, etc. You need to make sure more than usual that your records are clean. As you mention, you want to listen to headphones so that it doesn't bother your girlfriend. The Beyers you listed, as well as the HD6XX leak a lot of sound (the 880s far less so as they are only semi-open). So if you have a relatively small place, she'll hear everything if, for example, you're both sitting on the couch. My main rig headphones are Audeze LCD 3 and they are completely open and leak a lot of sound, so if my wife is across the table from me it's like she's listening to a tinny version of whatever I'm listening to. If she's more than 10-15 feet away, she doesn't hear anything. Just something to think about as you look for headphones. Some quality open backed headphones in the 100-200 used range: Beyerdynamic 770, 880 or 990 Sennheiser HD 6XX (or HD 600) Hifiman HE400i (these are very decent planar magnetic headphones that originally listed for $599, then dropped to around $250 or so, used around 125-150) AKG K702 Grado SR125/225/325 Closed back in the same range: Audio Technica ATH-M50X PSB M4U 1/ NAD Viso HP50 (I think they're basically the same) AKG K551, K550, or K545 Audeze Sine (on-ear) There are lots of options, and it's actually a great pricepoint to buy used if you're willing, as the prices are beyond Best Buy-styled consumer headphones, but cheaper than the really serious audiophile stuff, and what happens (which absolutely happened to me) is that this is where most people get their start with headphones, and then work their way up to more expensive pairs.

Would just like to point out that it’s almost December and Kevin Shields said a new MBV album would “100%” be out in 2018. I assume it will be out soon then, because if I can’t trust Kevin Shields to finish something on time...well then I don’t know WHO to trust.

criminally rated

This album is so criminally underrated it isn't funny. One of my all time favourites. In saying that, it was pretty much universally praised amongst critics and the rest of the music industry, just slagged by fans that wanted frogstomp 2.0

Unless its truly sold out.

About time. I knew waiting would pay off. Ya’ll are suckers with no concept of what a single LP should cost in 2018.

I thought your avatar was AJ Styles. I'm wrong.

Just got an email from EasyStreet about the Weezer 10" for Africa disc I ordered from them this morning. Any of you guys heard about this? Just wanted to give you a heads up that the Weezer 10” picture disc of Africa was recalled across the country. Every record store in the country received warped copies. They are mostly bowled and the ones that we tested did not affect the playing. Let me know if you’re still interested and I’ll process your order.

I picked one up in store and immediately felt it was dished. I had no intentions on buying it just wanted to touch it lol. My copy of bloody kisses has some scratches on side d, e and f at the start of each side and plays ridiculously loud pops. I'm gonna try to exchange it at bullmoose. Just sucks because I hate to be that guy. Other than that the record itself sounds amazing. Surprised at the quality since it's colored and all

Ooo... Which version is that one?

The Skyrim box set is getting another release. PRE-SALE will be up tomorrow on Spacelab9's site. Emerald Circlet limited to #500 Sapphire Circlet limited to #200

How much could an EP cost, $60?

I almost don't even play my copy of Jaws because it's such a pain in the ass to get back in. Sounds beautiful, but jesus, I spend as much time as Side A just trying to get the damn thing back in.

Not sure why someone would pay $50 for something they can easily get for less than half that price.

Woohoo!

I whiffed on both. I was at work and saw it was 1:01, check the site, none. Refresh for 10 minutes hopin one goes back up while simultaneously checkin Plus100 where theres nothing. Do something else, come back, Plus 100 is up and gone. Bravo!
