  1. This is from first-hand experience purchasing the following "new" XL pressings: The Bends, OK Computer, Amnesiac, and Hail to the Thief are all Parlophone pressings and sound great.  Didn't buy any of the others, but I have read multiple times (including in this thread) that Kid A is a Capitol pressing and is not up to par with the earlier pressings.

    Heyo, I'm reaching out with some questions for those of you more well versed in the world of tubes and preamps. I've been working with the same setup for a few years now and I am looking to step it up a bit (without upgrading my table). Currently I have:

     

    Pro-Ject Debut III 

    Marantz SR-63 Receiver

    Polk Audio RTI A1 Bookshelf Speakers

    Polk Audio PSW 111 Subwhoofer

     

    I've been thinking about adding a Preamp stage for tonal control (specifically tube preamp) as the receiver I have has a decent preamp built in, but I want more. Any thoughts? I've been toying with the Parks Audio Budgie preamp, anyone have any experience with this?

    I was also considering buying a phono preamp (was looking at the Pro-ject Tube Box S), but I feel like I could use some education on the subject of preamps.

  3. Looking to sell or trade a few albums that I've accrued over the last few years that I no longer need.  Everything here is still sealed and in mint condition unless otherwise noted.  Here's what I got (I may be adding to this list over the next couple days):

     

    Dredg - El Cielo

    Jack's Mannequin - The Glass Passenger

    Something Corporate - Leaving Through the Window (Red variant sold through band website with autographed card) (opened and has been played a few times, still plays perfect)

     

    There are a few LPs that I would consider trading for as well:

     

    Radiohead - In Rainbows (45 RPM Pressing) https://www.discogs.com/Radiohead-In-Rainbows/release/1158751

    Radiohead - The King of Limbs (45 RPM Record Industries Pressing) https://www.discogs.com/Radiohead-The-King-Of-Limbs/release/8607579

    Original UK pressings of Radiohead - Kid A, Amnesiac, and Amnesiac

    Dredg - Leitmotif

     

    Feel free to contact me with questions.  Thanks!
