Sting and his Dagostino momentum preamplifier - very cool

Very cool....he was doing a video so hopefully his usual routine is a bit more methodical.  That was his record store day release last year...thanks for the reminder for RSD 2026!  I have a few great record stores within 2 miles here in Memphis and will definitely be getting out to support and standing in line this year.

Sting would really like your windows, and especially the way your turntable is supported by cool wires from the wall, very interesting.

Thanks!

Me and a local audio friend got those shelves from the container store about 10 or more years ago.  I started on a shelf system and my 100 year old house's wood floor is like a trampoline.  When I had my 20lb canine buddy Hershey, I could feel him walking through the house from the kitchen to come see me.  I also got lots of bass vibrations that would resonate through the turntable and stylus and create a horrible bass tone in the room at certain frequencies.  This solved both issues. 

I had the privilege of being able to hear that amp driving Sonus Faber, as well as my modest Martin Logan Montage. My dealer let me do that to hear what the amp can do. It was eye opening. That’s the best amplifier I’ve heard. Love it. Apparently Sting does too!

Cool setup! The album overall is good, but the opening Message in a Bottle is a bit of a mess and Sting’s voice on it isn’t his best. I saw the 3.0 show last summer at Red Rocks, great concert.
