Great Discussion Everyone - Thanks for the thoughts. I’ve done some more digging. Sheffield Labs simply doesn’t have a catalog that I am interested. I can appreciate a few of their recordings, but mostly it is not my preferred artist set. And I must be perfectly honest, I do indulge in a few things - good bourbon and my audio system - but I am hard pressed to spent upwards of $200 or more for a bloody LP. Better records has a great selection, but man-o-manicotti, that is simply beyond my price range. East Wind has a real good selection. The recordings from Blue Heaven Studios in Salinas, Kansas are affordable and wonderful.
Direct 2 Disc
Holy Smokes! I recently purchased and played a couple of Direct 2 Disc LPs on my turntable and I was simply blown away on the clarity and beauty of these recordings. Wow, this was a wonderful experience. I bought a Doug MacLeod and a Henry Gray 200gr LPs. They were recorded at a place in Kansas. Just starting to investigate these. On the merits of these two, I bought $150 more. Do ya'll have any favorites that sound especially crisp? I do have a couple of Third Man Record D2D recordings, but they didn't sound this good.
