  1. For me this is another gem. The band is called "Red Clay Ramblers", I'd call them Blue Grass. This comes from an album titled "Twisted Laurel". The album has been paired on a single CD with their other album titled "Merchants Lunch".
  2. April Smith and The Great Picture Show - You might remember this tune from a 2012 Lowes Commercial. AllMusic calls it Pop/Rock and to me it has a burlesque and vaudeville feel. The whole album "Songs For A Sinking Ship" is wonderful! april smith colors youtube - Google Search
  3. Welcome! There's a couple of places; Home - Carver Audio Repair Service - Hi-Tech Audio LTD Nelion Audio - Authorized Carver Repair Can't speak to lead times but both warrantee their work so I doubt you could go wrong with either one.

    Record Stand Ideas

    Anymore, 99.9% of my music is local digital and served up from Lyrion Music server. I can either use the jump list on the left or the scroll bar on the right. No more flipping through vinyl or CD's, they're all safely stored away.
  5. I think my brother got this on some sampler record that came in his Columbia "membership" I'm thinking about 1971, I would have been 20 so that seems about right. And yes, the version that I have is a studio with more content than this video.
  6. Yes, truly terrible. Didn't read it all but what I read is terrible!
  7. II. Johnny Pissoff No. 2 (The Illiad) - Ed Sanders 1970
  8. This line from the end of "The End" on Abbey Road... And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make.
  9. All my music is local, 1,800+ albums. I run Lyrion Music Server (formerly Logitech Media Server) to play my music either individually across my several clients or synced so selected clients play the same thing. It has plugins for Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify, no Amazon. WiiM devices except for WiiM Mini, WiiM Sub Pro, and WiiM Vibelink Amp natively support Lyrion as renderers. You can also build a renderer using a Raspberry Pi. The WiiM devices that don't directly have support for Lyrion can be used via the Lyrion UPnP support. Lyrion can access just about any radio station worldwide that has an internet presence. The Lyrion server can be installed on most any type computer, Windows, MAC, Linux, etc. Lyrion supports just about all music file formats, FLAC, WAV, ALAC, MP3, etc. From what I've read it seems that the biggest difference between Lyrion and Roon is the price, Lyrion is free for both the server software and Squeezelite client renderer software, which is also available for most OS platforms.
  10. Jefferson Starship - Nuclear Furniture
  11. A great cover of Cat Stevens - Sheryl Crow's First Cut is the Deepest
  12. My favorite cover of Stan Jones - Mary McCaslin's Ghost Riders in the Sky
  13. Cheap Thrills - Big Brother and the Holding Company. Saw them at Lagoon 7/20/1968. I think they did most of the songs from this album that was release the next month.
  14. You know what they say... Patience is a virtue. I did get a response! And they must be swamped. I'm scheduled for November. Anybody have an idea on mitigating the transformer hum in the meantime? I did read somewhere that one user found that rotating the plug 180 degrees reduced their hum, but my plug is an AC polarity plug and only goes in one way. Was the inverting m-1.0t have a non-polarity AC plug?
  15. Well, I now have these hooked up and am pretty happy with what I'm hearing from my ADS L810's! I've had it pretty loud, but have yet to see the meters jump to anything, just the base LED's lit. The M-1.0t does have a very audible hum. I've eliminated a ground loop as the cause. I've sent Nelion a service message per their site instructions a few days ago and while they're at it, I figured the mkII upgrade and signal path upgrade would be good to add to the base restore. Wondering how quickly Nelion typically responds to email as I've heard nothing yet? And yes, I've checked for a response landing in spam.
