QOBUZ - The hidden gems
Really enjoyed this thanks! Something in the same vein with great interplay IMO. Vinyl is demo quality. Little less refined. A touch more funk. https://open.qobuz.com/album/lkke8r6729roc- emoonie

Symphonie Fantastique/Munch/BSO 1954 Versus 1962
One of my favorites. It may lack flow and immersion of my other faves (Earlier Munch and Monteux) but for me it keeps my interest with its energy and passion. A worthy contrast. YMMV I don't have it on vinyl and my CD was remastered by Wilma Cozart Fine before they released the titles on SACD.- emoonie

An Explanation of the Term "Suspension of Disbelief"
Personally to me Suspension of Disbelief (capitalized) is (was) a state where a change made to my system is so great I became astonished. Literally shaking my head and laughing. These came far and few between even in the beginning. I'm pretty much not astonished anymore. YMMV- emoonie

Ron’s New System
Sheffield Labs did. They used the tape to press subsequent run(s) in their "Treasury" series. A far cry unfortunately sonically compared to the D to D (the repress not the tape).

Onzow Zerodust case is really solved?
If heat is the culprit I find the last comment most telling (don't know if it's proper to cut and paste this but here goes): "Equally important than expired Zerodust is using it right after a play. The heat on the stylus, much like the brakes on one's vehicle being used hard, will contaminate...- emoonie

WaxRax Vinyl Record Storage Racks
I originally designed the storage system in our condominium to maximize space usage. I needed to get seven rows wall to wall with an eight foot ceiling so records pretty much covered the entire wall. It was cinderblock concrete construction. I utilized (48) shelf brackets that support 600 pounds...- emoonie

Ron’s New System
Hi Ron. Amazing journey, thanks for sharing. Regarding toe in with planars my experience is opposite (sort of) with others leading me to believe there are no set rules.
