No, just picked it up a couple of weeks ago! If I end up keeping it(I think I am), I may just spring for the upgrade.

PV11AL. Not the most revealing, but added much needed warmth!

Haven't posted in a while, hope everyone is well and enjoying this crazy hobby. A few changes since my last post: Rogue Audio 100 amp, Linn Lp12, Stevens & Billington step up transformer and Conrad Johnson preamp. Moving into a new place in a couple of months so will go back to the drawing board...

Is it alright if I post a Jazz title? Considering myself extremely fortunate to find a sealed copy off eBay for 60, prices on Discogs are ridiculous. https://www.discogs.com/release/5132790-Ahmad-Jamal-Ahmad-Jamals-Alhambra

Happy to see it at 33, really not a fan of the 45 format and mastering choices on the Doug Sax. Pricing is ridiculous, though.

Scored a sealed copy for the price of a Tone Poet from Chad's vault. Side B is a 20 minute jammer, good stuff!

Classic Records 1998

Might just bite, 80$ for 6 records doesn't sound too bad. Would be nice to compare Joan Baez, I have a KG/SH Pure Pleasure from 07.

I'm sure I'm late to the party, but another KPG home run. 2024 repress from Jackpot for 29$. After trading in a couple of records, snagged a sealed copy for $18. Truly mind-blowing.

Did anyone else grab the 2024 repress? ******* spectacular.

I don't have a copy unfortunately, but my buddy has an early UK. When comparing the two, the UK just rocks. I'm not sure all the added detail from the RHF compliments this record well, I found it to be lacking warmth and drive.

My thoughts exactly,

Speaking of Seasons, I attended the listening party over @CommonWave in LA last night. Kevin can be seen wearing the brown sports jacket. I was fortunate to get my copy signed, pressing and mastering is GREAT.

Happy to finally own a copy.
