| Foreign Tongues - New Rolling Stone Album (vinyl) I just got my LP copy of Foreign Tongues today - a black vinyl version oddly pressed in the Czech Republic. Many of these tracks sound much better than their streaming counterparts on Qobuz - they have much better dynamic range and soundstage. I'm... | |
| Why I don't think I'll ever return to vinyl - brief rant hilde45 Vinyl ownership demands constant maintenance and technical attention. Not really. It does require some periodic attention - bearing lubrication, perhaps occasional belt replacement, ensuring the table is still level. But a good turntab... | |
| Loose banana-to-spade adapters The trick is to install the cables at an angle so that the weight of the cables themselves exerts pressure in a clockwise ("righty-tighty") direction. Or, better yet, ditch the adapters and re-terminate the cables. | |

| CBS Half Speeds? Digital? addman27 CBS did not use ’virgin vinyl’ for these, just standard vinyl at their Terre Haute pressing plant. I have only a few of the CBS half-speed releases, but here's what the insert sez from the Boston release RE 34188: "CBS has developed ... | |

| Why I don't think I'll ever return to vinyl - brief rant n80 ... are you suggesting that you have to make a deep commitment before you can tell? You know, buy all the expensive gear, then do a lot a research into each vinyl purchase making sure you buy from someone with a liberal return policy an... | |
| Why I don't think I'll ever return to vinyl - brief rant Let me get this straight. The OP says, "I am not a vinyl guy," then buys vinyl for his "half decent turntable and a half decent cartridge and a mid-fi at best phono preamp," then doesn't like the record, then creates a thread saying, "I don't thin... | |

| How AI fixed my Bryston integrated’s crashing problem Your feelings may be hurt now, but that sensation will pass. You'll be ok. | |
| How AI fixed my Bryston integrated’s crashing problem tlcocks I’d rather not say. But suffice to say the amp was exhibiting a multitude of symptoms ... whereas Bryston rep just ultimately said to send them the amp. They also said they would likely have it a while, like months ... Frankly, wh... |
