    what are you listening to?

    I'm thinking of taking a break from this new to me music and play a few of the CDs in the collection that I know I like. I did put the David Bowie collection in chronological order yesterday and tried to do that with DJ Krush with no luck at all. Wanted to hear the evolution of the artist...

    Wondering what latch played that gave the Oil and Gas man that visited a come to Jesus moment. Echoes.org had a good Monday and Tuesday 2 hour program that I can tune in or stream. Since it is bedroom listening it doesn't matter much. But last night WEXT streams from 12-5am these two shows...

    what are you listening to?

    OK with over 350 CDs new to me to listen to, Tom’s favorites, I’m also employing the CDC in the bedroom but usually listen to Echoes on XPN or streamed on WUOT-2, WEXT or if I can’t sleep, the Alaska public radio stations that play it even later at night. But I pulled the Back to Mine...

    what are you listening to?

    My Dahlquist DQ-LP1 has a startling turn-off pop. I power down the amps with music playing to drain the power supplies before switching it off.

    what are you listening to?

    I’ve started the work of listening to the 370 new to me CDs, a few duplicates and some I already have so about 325 new music discs in the collection. I’ve cataloged them on discogs so I can rate them as I listen to them in the car, soundroom and bedroom. Above & Beyond “Tri-State” is playing...

    what are you listening to?

    Another shipment of about 340 CDs from Tom Clone. Sure I have about 20 of these titles in my collection already because he gave me the record or the CD before or I had my own copy, but most is new to me. I've got some work to do just going through them all. David Bowie, DJ Krush, Gorrilaz, The...

    HiFi Engine- What’s going on with them?

    New users not able to sign up to VE?- Vinyl Engine Why Is My IP Address Blocked?- Vinyl Engine HFE and VE are under attack by bots and folks wanting to steal the content to sell, probably on the bay on cd or something. The above explain a bit about it and it blames a number of reasons for not...

    Crown Straight Line One, any good ?

    Yes, those 10 filmatic caps. They are just fine. They are not electrolytic that grow old and don’t work right. but if you must, any very good film cap should be fine. Lots of brands out there.

    Crown Straight Line One, any good ?

    Should be a nice preamp. I have one but use it only to power some phono amps from Crown. It is not loved like the SL-2, the 1 rack unit fully loaded preamp but the SL-1 should be great without the tone controls and other things the SL-2 offers. A minimalist approach. Mine was cheap and...

    what are you listening to?

    Finally streamed Infected Mushroom’s “Converting Vegetarians” after reading about how Lee enjoys it because he has a PL700 on his subs and it gets him in a better mood after a bad day. I already like their “B.P. Empire” and now see their “IM the Supervisor” I need to hear. So it is added to my...

    Goldpoint Stepped Attenuators

    The Bottlehead Foreplay II I picked up and got the Sony Tektronix 335 scope, too, has a pair of mono goldpoint pots in it. It was a very high quality build for that kit tube preamp.
