Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

[Clement]

I've been reading about ultrasonic cleaners for my vinyl. I may be researching for months, so in the meantime i picked up the unit @GOS recommended, the Spin-Clean. I ran this Dylan SQ LP through and it sounds so much better: most of the surface noise i was hearing is gone; i've heard nary a pop or crackle! Quite the difference. Ima be cleaning ALL day long!

Another Minnie Riperton Quadraphonic LP that sounds, as @Simon A says. "simply superb"! Never would have found this and Perfect Angel were it not for QQ and the magic of the SM v.2!
Thank you all, comrades! And a special shout out to @chucky3042 for these piercing lights taking away my blues!

except for some minor left over vinyl noise after some RX 8 De-Click & Crackle, this one's turning out very nice. Sounds like you're in the middle of this small orchestra. Too bad Denon doesn't put these out on an SACD - ugh!

I almost bought that when I got the Janis Ian, but they wanted over £30 for it which was more than I wanted to spend - may be I should

That does seem like a lot. I'm trying to find Rags to Rufus for a decent price. Had it on stereo LP once upon a time. Sad i let it go! It'll work out for both of us . . . it is hoped!

I have the Japanese UHQ MQA~CD and IMO, it's a stunner. Wouldn't it be wonderful if Dutton Vocalion could access those wonderful QUAD masters from the Impulse vaults now controlled by UMG and release them as multichannel SACDs?

 

[Clement]

You inspired me to revisit a stellar Impulse! release that i cleaned yesterday. This one is another absolute STUNNER!

Listening to it so moved me that i composed a REVIEW!

My 99p bargain has arrived
