stryvn - where did you find Gdansk in vinyl?

Jack Johnson

John Lee Hooker

Pink Floyd

Dire Straits

Emma

Dead Can Dance

The usual suspects, messing with conditioner and power cable, Shunyata Guardian Pro 2 and Venom power cable.

That and the ICs (MIT) and speaker wire (ocos) modifications.

I will post in accessories when I am ready. Still stirring the pot on all of the above.

So I have not idea what Art is talking about with his assertion that I am constantly tweaking... LOL

More Gdansk.

Wot's uh, ...the deal?


I ordered it from Musicdirect.com, Mike. Around $120 (after shipping and all) but well worth the coin! It is very good. I've seen it priced lower at other web sites recently, but I trust Musicdirect.

And Floyd - The Final Cut vinyl on now.

Cheap Trick, acoustic set on a local station.

If you point the boombox toward the reflecting rear wall, in an open room, the bass reinforcement is surprising, and no flat spots in the room.

Back to the paint thinners and bits of drywall.

Nuck, if I wasn't burning in cables I would give you a big "YES".

However, I find myself a bit under the weather with a power cable and interconnect to burn in. I am listening to the CD "Dylan" repeat disc. I have fallen asleep twice but am on round 4 as I type

Now if I can only burn in the 20A power cord without a 20A termination...

Need some blu-tak.
Maybe a slab of maple to hook them up.
Need space behind the Lings(rear port), but the low height and solid base call for a little slope on the speakes.

From 22' away, the room fills nicely ;)

Sem, you can't give up on the Scotch. It's sipping stuff...too expensive and full for heavy drinking...but that's my take.

No music this morning, just cartoons for the kids.

George, you're right of course, but I just can't get back up that horse. I can still drink Drambuie though, go figure.

Mike and Stryvn, you both play a lot of Floyd and Floyd solo material so I was wondering how do you compare MLOR to their other releases? Personally its my least played PF album, though I do like it, just not as much as their others.



Louis Armstrong - Definitive Collection - $3 pickup and brand new at that.

Sem, I think that on and Delicate Sound of Thunder are two of my least favorite. I liked older and newer stuff better for whatever reason. But I do think they are both great for the highway with the top down and to volume knob up.

Fully Completely is a good recording in my opinion (their best one). Sounds awesome on my system.

They have a new album coming out this spring with Bob Rock on the dials. Recorded on the lakeside in Kingston - Nick's neck of the woods.

The MLOR doesn't really work for me, SEM. I have it in the collection but it RARELY gets played. I remember when this album came out and it really sorta turned me off of Pink Floyd... I thought they were done. On The Turning Away has a nice sound to it, but overall it seemed the Gilmour sound had given way to airwave desires.

BUT, having said that, I think the MLOR tracks played live on PULSE are pretty damn good. Sorrow is one of the albums highlights, in my mind. The studio album usually just sits in the "P" section of the cd's next to the other Floyd stuff and doesn't come out much.

I borrowed a Time/Life cd collection from my wife's cousin a few weeks ago. Singers and Songwriters... a series of 11 double discs that covers all those singer/songwriters from the 60's up to 1982. You know, Michael Martin Murphy and Phoebe Snow and Ambrosia and Franki Valli and Jim Croce and Donovan...lol. Me and the Mrs. grooved out last night. It wasn't all good but it was good for a few laughs and flashbacks.

Ahh, Ambrosia. I had always heard that there was a lot more to them than their radio hits - "Biggest part of Me" and "How Much I feel" etc. So I picked up a bunch of their albums a while back. Very impressive debut (s/t) album, playing now. Nice, nice, very nice.
