The ones I saw in person were in solid walnut and WAY more sexy and stunning than the pics or that dyed ash version on their website.

Actually, Grahame, I think Claire would love the look and told her about them but haven't shown them to her. She loves good wood.

Me too! I hadn't seen the original post but good wishes for better feeling are going your way Fitz!

Quote added for context, but the immediately preceding posts made it pretty clear. I knew you'd make a crack as soon as I hit send.

If he was talking to a woman, maybe his phone was in his front pocket . . .

I didn't buy any of it. Just went to a demo with JP in NYC. Awesome stuff that haunts me a bit. If I could only find $100K lying around unattended...

The OMA Lenco idler, Schick arm, tweaked Ortofon cartridge, OMA RIAA phono preamp and OMA Parallax integrated amplifier, all playing through the OMA AC2 field coil loudspeakers. It was by far the best demo I have ever had even though the speakers were set up with a 3-foot round column between them. Table: RIAA: Amp: Speakers (this is the AC1 non-field coil version):

It's really good, Dusty. I'm seeing Roy Haynes in the next couple of months too, and that has me even more excited than tomorrow's dreamy trio.

No, you've been Ohmed.

You didn't get one because you don't have enough posts and nobody pays any attention to you. Apparently not.

I think Gene and I both were hoping to make GABF '11 but not RMAF '10.

I wonder why...

Brian Blades & the Fellowship Band -- Season of Changes Seeing Blades, Christian McBride and Chick Corea Trio on Thursday and completely psyched for that combo.

Thanks Reks. Much appreciated. And there is no way in hell I will "make a move" on those abortions. Now let me get back to eating my shit on a shingle...

Very nice arm. I just saw one in action at the Oswald Mills Audio demo room in NYC recently. Is that where you bought the arm?

Yes, yes you are. Happy 40th! Cheers!

Currently at Broken Bells at the Fox Theater in Oakland. I think I would prefer listening to them on my stereo. At least there I wouldn't be subjected to the ridiculous quantity of recorded bass.

Looking forward to trying out the Pappy. I will keep some around for MOA II for sure.

Dammit

Hasn't the new season started? I haven't been able to watch it but I am shocked nobody is chatting it up. Hoping to watch in the next couple days.

Horrors! I hope it isn't that bad Mike. Fingers crossed.

Indeed. Which reminds me that someone needs to do a Beatles remake entitled "Jacob's Silver Shovel." I think it has possibilities.
