I just picked up a Bang & Olufsen BeoMaster 4500 only to discover it doesn't have a phono pre amp. This is the first amp I've owned without one, and I really don't know what I'm looking for when shopping for one. Although I'd love a "budget" solution, I'd be willing to spend a bit more if it would really complement my set-up and improve sound quality. What I would like to avoid, though, is overspending on something that outpaces the rest of my gear or saving a few bucks but ending up with my new weakest link. My set-up: B&O BeoMaster 4500 Pro-Ject RPM 1.3 Ortefon 2M Red Klipsch KP 101's B&O RL 60's I really appreciate any advice you guys can give.

I got super lucky yesterday when the picture disc popped up (again) on the Amoeba site. Disappeared right after I ordered so maybe it was just the one copy. Just got my shipping confirmation!

The only Plain record I have is Loveless, and luckily I too only paid about $12 for it. Hopefully we'll get a proper reissue sometime soon.

Do we know when this goes up yet?

Thanks.

What is the May flexi?

Should be 2xLP...

It isn't.

I've been following your blog, nice work! Entered.

You have this sad sack's appreciation!

I posted in the Mondo thread but might as well try here as well. I'll be working when this goes up next Friday and I don't want to miss out on the clear vinyl. Would someone who will be ordering mind grabbing one for me as well?

So it looks like I'll be working when this goes live. Would anyone be willing to grab a clear for me for price + shipping?

Yeah, it will show up there when it goes live. In the past the records have been on the main page ( http://www.mondotees.com/ ) as well.

Good clean fun?

You are missing something. The RSD version is a picture disc. The release that Mondo confirmed as being the exact same release is out in stores the end of May.

Yes.

Who's got a what.cd invite for me?

Email from Mondo: "Yes, the DRIVE vinyl that will be in record stores will be the same as the one we sold online. Same artwork and same randomly-inserted pink vinyl! Best of luck! Take care. Eric Sincerely, Mondo Tees"

Hey guys, what size plastic sleeves do you use to house your box sets? Any recommendations?

In for a clear with bronze swirl Four Trees.

10% off tipped the scale for me. A no brainer.

Good thread, would read again. I really don't understand the Moonbeams hate. There are plenty of threads on this board that are less useful/more redundent than this one, and even those don't annoy me enough to comment.

It showed 4 dollars tax to MA but it disappeared during checkout. I paid $43.13 shipped with the discount code FLUEVOG (Thanks sydmsix!) .

I for one would like the thread left here, since this is the forum I check most often and I like free records.

Phil doesn't post numbers, but I'm guessing he pressed a ton of these. You should be fine.
