I just set up the DL-103 with the Cinemag SUT. Though overhang with the stock headshell doesn't seem to be working. I'm either in front of the first null point and dead on the second null point or vice versa.
edit: this is with Baerwald.
Blind Faith s/t is just a crappy recording, the MFSL sounds muddy to me too. I am trying to get my hands on first pressing UK vinyl, but it isn't cheap.
It's the exact same Jimmy Page & Marino mastering that they have been releasing ad nauseum in various versions.
Do an ABX test, or compare the waveforms, they're identical.
I pity the fool who has to listen to this on CD
SQ is great on vinyl, way more dynamic. Not a bad posthumous Jimmy album. Though it still has two tracks butchered at the hands of the monster Alan Douglas.
I doubt anyone cares about the former. And they are sold out in most countries. Elusivedisc got their last shipment from Japan with this current batch.

Forbigger- another reason you might not see a proper review is the people that own them (other than HPA?) are veteran members and don't really do reviews because reviews are lame
I'm not even accounting for reliability problems with the ESP950. Even with a BHSE they still retain their signature Koss sound which sounds like a slightly fancier Koss A250.
More Fantasy 45 Analogue Productions back catalog releases. But today I scored one of my holy grail items, a mono DCC Beach Boys Pet Sounds. Now about 4 shy of all the ones that I want to own (I think I have 6 or 7 DCC LPs)
