Hi rotur I'll take them if they're still available Cheers

I'm not sure my wife would approve of the babysitting arrangements! You should definitely drop by sometime for a quiet ale and some loud music. I will try and organise a GTG before the end of the year.

Given that the cost of new vinyl is relatively high ( $20-25 if you're lucky, up to $45-50, and more if people are buying box sets, "limited edition coloured vinyl", etc), I find it strange that the same people are so price sensitive when it comes to the actual TT. The difference in price between the cheapest TT that will probably sound below average, and potentially damage those expensive records, compared to a decent entry level TT from Project/etc. would probably amount to a handful of new LPs.

Porcupine Tree - I've tried to listen to a number of their albums a few times but they just do nothing for me.

Thanks Duane - this looks like it will be a fantastic GTG. My wife is away that weekend, so I'll have the kids with me. If no one objects, I might need to bring them with me - they're pretty well behaved, and can usually be bribed with iPads and junk food! Cheers Suresh

If you like Grenache, you should try the Izway 3 Brians. Probably my favourite Grenache and slightly ahead of the Torbreck Les Amis.

Is he angry, or constipated??😀

Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely 😀

If you're in Adelaide, why not see what they have at VAF at the moment. There was certainly a wide range of TTs at their vinyl night last week. I think they stock Rega, rather than Project, but if your TT is portable, you could bring it in and compare it to what they have there?

A big thanks to Simon, Ben and everyone at VAF for hosting the vinyl event last last night. A great idea, as evidenced by the number of people there. I'm sorry that I wasn't able to stay long. It was nice to catch up with some SNAers. I certainly would be interested in getting Ben to check out the set-up on my TT sometime. Cheers

I ordered it a week ago from Audiophile Reference Recordings in Melbourne, so hopefully still in stock there.

If you're in Adelaide this weekend, you're welcome to come over and have a quick listen to the Clearaudio . I don't have a Rega or Project to compare it to.

Duran Duran - 7 and the Ragged Tiger - Aust Maxicut pressing. I'd forgotten just how good this album was. One of the few albums I own where almost every track is great. Classic 80s pop.

Michael Jackson - Thriller - US 1st press
