Janjuggler Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Hi All, Still on Pink Floyd, The Endless River 4 minutes ago, hlov said: That combo must sound fantastic Yes, different to the Hana EL cartridge it replaced, The Ortofon has a Fine Line stylus, the Hana an Elliptical stylus. The amount of time used for each is different also, the Hana has about 250 hours use and the Ortofon about 50 hours, so will need another 30-40 hours to be at its best.

cheekyboy Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 The Jayhawks - Tomorrow The Green Grass on MOV label. I think their best album too and one that I haven't played for a while, but great to hear these beautiful harmonies again. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H.E. Pennypacker Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 (edited) It’s definitely a rock evening, much similar, and much the same between the two exhibited here (also Never Mind the Bollocks which played as one of a few in between). much prefer my ‘listening view’ Edited January 24, 2020 by furtherpale 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of like the Steve Albini masters of in utero, but not quite like bleach (original sub pop pressings or the sub pop analogue reissue - it’s been ruined in new remasters). My second favourite is any 1st pressing - those are still ‘slicker’ than the MoFi, a little compressed, but early ‘90s compressed, not brickwalled and ruined like the new ‘remasters’ (the one’s I’ve heard anyway... I can absolutely appreciate why many (if not most) have this as their go to... we’re talking different as opposed to better/worse. I’m yet to hear the ORG version, but my understanding is it’s pretty close to the 1st pressings. Nevermind is my most valuable record (by quite a bit) - but I’d love to have a 1st pressing to have the best of both worlds (I have an original release CD, which gets me through, and the MQA on tidal is pretty good too). It’s just a little hard to justify even further considerable investment for a copy I’d be happy with (NM).

Sort of recreating a perfected version of a first pressing, direct from the tape.... when they’re new they are about $70au... so significantly cheaper than a first press, but they catch up. All three are pricey though! Maybe one day... Edited January 24, 2020 by furtherpale 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
