This is a scale that may be a bit smaller than yours Ovenmitt. Big giant image makes myself feel like a midget.


It is a slower passage with swing that show how great the AS2000. No need to listen in real room to feel how wonderful and magical Ms.Vaughn performed. Even a silly video from hand phone can translate that. My other tts just can't do this level of digging into music.


Damn Tang! That is just killing it. What record is that? I must own it, lol! I'm very curious to know who is in her band on that too... Just fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

Mono reissue recording played using DaVa stereo cart. Field coil cart, power supply has to be upgraded and current SUT has lower gain. To be upgraded. Still, very good female vocals

On that cut it‘s my Garrard, SME, SPU. View attachment 69165
Hi Chris,

Your whole set up sounds great in that video. "That Bruce Lee guy doesn't talk much but really has the kick," I thought. :p
What strike me most is how you balance your mult-function living room acoustic so damn well to get just the right natural lively sound with less room signature imo.

You sure know how to take care your vinyls much better than me too. Very clean indeed. Is the Mazda 12AX7 that we are hearing from your Emt phono in the video.

Here is the musicians.

note that this one is a 1954 mono recording, cut with a modern stereo cutter head. i just listened to it with my EMT/Kairos/Infinity 0.7, CS Port/Etsuro Gold and Saskia/Etsuro Gold.

slightly different, but ultra-sublime, on each one. great record. had it for a while.

Thank you for the compliments Tang... Yes, that’s the EMT, with Mazda’s. I’m still amazed by that phono stage. I kind of went out on a limb when I bought it; having never heard it. Thanks again for your advice with it.

I was listening to this video vs mine of the same song while sitting next to my 5 year old son drawing his art. I was playing over and over. My son looked at me and said "Pap. This song is so sad. Are you sad?" He could not have understood the lyric. Amazing how music could translate to emotion and touch even a little child.

your Vaughn was a unique experience, evan from a lap top... i was running to get my mono copy a second after u heard your video.

I Think its the most great compliment you (i) can get for any system we try to build, it needs to convoy emotion and playing\singing by human beens not just reproduce melody and sounds. my goals are to feel the musicians and "see" them playing\singing , not just flapping notes in the air by voice, violin or piano.
if a stereo system can get you attached to the feelings that the musicians/composers are tried to project and felt at the moment they preform or wrote, its the best you can get. IMHO

(ps - im not entirely sure i am in that position in every recording i play... but i must admit that my latest changes are getting me closer)
