So long Sal/Evan/Ed. He wouldn't like a longer epytaph.

Me too. I bought all of their 33 1/3 records before they started these 'no compromise' audiophile series at 45 RPM, and 50 $PM. BTW they just reissue the Davis Prestige Set at 250 $ http://store.acousticsounds.com/browse_det...?Title_ID=16183

Sound quality couldn't be worse than CD version I own And you can have the only vinyl versions, AFIK, of the solo riverside records, or not?!!? I say that at any price under 150 $, for a NM copy, would be a great catch.

BUON COMPLEANNO!

What he said

My List: (I would call them 'classics') J Ballard R Bradbury A Clarke PK Dick W Gibson J Verne K Vonnegut HG Wells and... Douglas Adams obviously!

LIVE 8 and this thread http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=17956 reminded me I have most of the Floyd's work on original pressing, included a rare mono first pressing of 'Saucerful of Secrets' , so... 'I will get a Pink Afternoon'

When will you show us your wardrobe?

Fai buon viaggio!

I tend to match beer and places, so I drinked Sol or Corona in Mexico, Kingfisher in India, Mandaley in Burma, ecc. There are some exceptions, like the irish pub just around the corner...

Mingus Plays Piano IMPULSE!, mono. A lot of ideas of 'Black Saint' in here ...and I may be wrong, but Mingus knew very well the Satie piano works...

The Liberty vinyl of that one is absolutely outstanding. ← Agreed!

I am a HUGE Dylan listener right now. Sundazed realeased a great sounding reissues of his early records from mono original master tapes at good price, reccomended...and I won a sealed first pressing of 'Desire' on ebay at ten bucks some times ago. Mr. Zimmerman rules, he is one of these human beings like Miles or Trane, blessed by God, Allah or Buddah or whatever you call HIM

...and a big wallet!

From my listening experience I learned that for audio engineers is easier to build good sounding high powered amps than good sounding efficient speakers, but I never listening this system...

The loudspeakers are from AvantGarde, very efficent horn speakers, with active subwoofers, for triode tube amp. http://avantgarde-usa.com/trio.html

Actually it's a five years global warranty.

I already hooked my system. At Linn factory in Scotland they checked it out, I think they would have advise me that all this mess was caused by a bad signal into the amp. From the tech sheet they included I read they replaced the power supply too, so I think this was the problem. I think that a bad signal from pre amp should have blow the power amp devices up and save the power supply and woofer, considering that my loudspeakers have some sort of protection between crossover and woofer. The protections blew up like the woofer, so I think that the low level signal from pre amp could't do that. Anyway I strongly hope you're wrong on this issue!

Well, some Bird's and Trane's solos are very close to orgasm.

I always found Linn and Naim two reliable brands, in term of tech support and customer care. Solid companies, a customer can count on them in the stream of time. I tend to avoid the 'last trend' audio smugglers who disappears after a couple of years of great reviews on High End journals.

...and MILES DAVIS 'Collectors Items', Prestige NY address

Grant Green 'Live at the lighthouse'. Funky stuff!!

It's a Klimax mono amp. Linn has a great customer service, for instance if you replace and old Linn cartridge they give you a discount of 30% on a new one.

At last I had my amp back from Linn. The problem was the solid state power amp, the tech sheet says "blew up", not a specialistic term, but it depicts the situation. Anyway my tube pre amp is innocent! BTW Linn will refund me the cost of loudspeaker repair. Great customer service
