Did you buy new? Funny, I didn't care until I got the new cart. I lost all my cleaning stuff in the move so I ordered a new brush etc.

No. Both used. I don't buy anything less than VG+ usually. And I generally only buy used from a seller with at least 99.9% positives and more than say a 1500 fb profile. I feel most comfortable and have had the most success if the seller has a 3-5000 fb profile.

I have the entire Columbo set too. I even have the 1968 movie that preceded the series, so I cannot call it a pilot. But all Columbo fans should have it. I VHS taped it from Turner Classic Movies, then later transferred it to DVD. It's on my Volume one set too.

Love Midnight Oil. Peter Garrett was amazing in concert.

Never seen them live, but he's quite wild and entertaining on stage on yt videos.

When I read through that, it just seems too prone to some fumble-fingered person like me smashing something. Weird procedure.

Yes he’s a big guy and he’s in constant motion on stage. One of the best stage acts I’ve ever seen. Too bad he stop performing with the band years ago except for special events. Was fortunate enough to see him and the band twice.

Both albums arrived today. Different sellers as I mentioned, so kind of cool to get them together. Both are far better than described! Diesel and Dust appears unplayed with no spindle trails or marks. Blue Sky Mining is a strong VG+ not quite mint minus. Playing D&D now. Oh yeah, it was dead quiet when the stylus landed. It's a rockin' album!

Got the Fragile super deluxe box set with the signed Roger Dean lithograph. Put it on the wall to start my music memorabilia collection to go along with my sports stuff. Looking forward to the Close to the Edge set coming out March 7.

I have these two Rutles CD's on the way.
They were very hard to find since Neil Innes died 5 years ago. He was shipping them from his site but after he died they never updated the site or replied to emails. These will complete my Rutles collection.
I do not have Archeology on vinyl though. That goes for around a couple hundred bucks. I have the re-issue CD though and that has bonus tracks that the vinyl and original CD do not have.
Back when Archeology was released in 1996, they also released a 10" vinyl, "Shangri-La", that I remember seeing at a record shop, but didn't buy it. I sort of kicked myself for years about that, but I have a copy of that now too.

Skipped out of work early to go fetch a demo unit (though fully warrantied) Luxman C-900U "control amp" as they call their pre-amps. It's the perfect match with the M-900U power amp I got very recently. Oh my, what killer sound!

Ok, I guess so.
Top shelf, left, Luxman PD-121U w/SME 3009R tonearm, right PD-171 w/Jelco TS-550S tonearm.
Second shelf, left, Luxman. EQ-500 phono stage, right is the new C-900U pre-amp.
Bottom shelf, left, Luxman DA-06 dac w/Bluesound Vault 2 sitting atop it. Right, Luxman M-900U power amp.
Combined with the new KEF Blade 2 Meta speakers, I've never heard anything this good, anywhere. The room is REALLY good and that makes all the difference in the world.

Received Twisters 4K yesterday; IMO, nearly as good as the old Twister...
It did cause the Dennon x3800 to shutdown though...
Enjoy!

Tonearm lift has arrived and installed. Nicely made piece of kit. New from Japan and saved 40 bucks.

Thanks for the tip. I needed something to put on my Birthday Wish list for my Kids to get me! It's only $16 (CAN $) on Amazon.ca
Hopefully my Denon X4400 won't shut down.
