Neil Young Box Set 5-8 $137.99 on amaozon...Deal?
-
Just bought this box on Amazon. Ditch period is my favorite. Hope I got a deal on it, $137.99

Cant hep you on locating the footage, but man Robbie nails that solo!
I know man! The whole F'ing band kills this songs. The vocals are great, they are a bit burried in the MoFi issue to my ears.

Hope someone on this great forum can help me out here. I came across this footage below of The Band performing "King Harvest" live in what I believe to be Sammy Davis Jr's California house which they rented. Does anyone know if there is complete footage of this performance, maybe on a DVD or something. Seems like they went the extra mile to make this performance sound good, its mixed and everything.

So I had one too many brews last night and woke up to find my Pro-Ject Debut 3 with Ortfon 2M Red running in the run out groove of the Lost Highway 10th anniversary compilation LP. So my question is, how bad is it for the needle to run in the runout groove for over 12 hours straight?

Hi guys, just wondering how some of you switch your components on and off. I'm trying to figure out the best way to turn on my turntable, phono pre, amp and a lamp via one switch. Right now everything is plugged into a power strip, I have to awkwradly reach behind a shelving unit to switch it on. Any ideas would be appreciated. Pictures would be great.

Tom Petty - Wildflowers. It was first on my list of records to get. After I got my Pro-Ject all hooked up I went online to purchase it...Little did I know it was out of print and going for over $250 on Ebay. Crushed all my dreams. Being a somewhat popular album I had no forethought to investigate pricing beforehand. Oh well, I'll wait patiently for the reissue....

Guys, I appreciate all of your input. Got around to adjusting the vertical tracking weight today. Bam, distortion gone and my system sounds great.

Tom Petty - Mojo

This things sounds great and I love how they put a blurb on the inner sleeve about the instruments they used on each track.

I hadn't heard anything about reissues, but they'd be welcome for sure. The only one I own is an OP of Rides Again that I lucked into for cheap in GREAT condition.
Thanks russtcb. They would be welcome for sure. Such a great trio.

Have been looking for James Gang pressings. Not much out there...Anyone have any info on upcoming re-issues or past to look for?
Thanks

Most MM carts want a loading of 47k and 100pf capacitance so 100k might be a bit high
The Creek phono is a OBH-18 MM. Specifically for Moving Magnet. The spec sheet says 47K input which is an exact match to my Ortofan 2M red cartridge. Also specs <100k output which matches my tube amp input. I need to do some setup work on the turntable. Thanks for the input allenh.

If not a worn stylus or alignment then that only leaves impedance mismatch or too high a gain. As ajxd suggested valve amps are sensative so an impedance issue is possible and you can cure it with a buffer stage between the phono stage and amplifier or you can make up a resistance box to put between the turntable and phono stage.
Thanks allenh. Did check impedance on phono output and amp input, both are 100k. I'm really suspecting the turntable needs a good setup done.
-
BUT his speakers are on the same unit... and it doesn't seem like a real steady unit.
Move the speakers off the same unit. Move em to stands!
Nice memory ajxd! I have since relocated the speakers to floor stands...No change.
-
Could be that 8watt tube amp too.
Thought about that but it has a lot of headroom. I've put other powered digital sources through it and cranked the output and have never had this problem.

Hi guys. I'm hearing some distortion when listening to songs that have multiple instruments and loud. Typically during the chorus portion of songs. I'm not talking death metal or anything overly loud. Here this on the new Ryan Adams album and Beatles stuff. I bought my turntable off Ebay and have never brought it in for a tune up...Do you think it could be a counter-weight or needle issue? My setup below...
Pro-Ject Debut 3 w/ Ortofon M2 Red cartridge (Original owner made the upgrade)
Creek phono pre
8w Tube amp
Klipsch KB-15 bookshelf
Thanks

Hey guys. I've been looking for a copy of Jimi Hendrix's Electric Ladyland. There are numerous pressings. Can anyone recommend a pressing to get? Have my eye on this Polydor records issue, gate fold colored vinyl...Anyone have it?
-
The dimensional tolerances of every 3D printer is different (depending on how much you spend on the printer). This is more of a publicity move than anything else. .005" is typical for higher price range printers. I'm going to say it sounds like a fart at best on most if not all 3D printers.

Just picked up Rhino 180 gram reissue of ZZ Top's Tres Hombres. 23.99 on Amazon right now. Hoping it sounds better than previous "Mastered" versions....

Are those front ported speakers? Either way, get em out of the bookshelf, as they need some space.
Back ported. Good point ajxd! Reloacating them would not be a bad idea.
