Buck, I’m as direct as you’ll find, no filter.

Ivan, you were right!

Mark, thank you!

For those of you on the fence, and have built a decent system, a table like the U-Turn is something to ponder, with a 30 day money back, US built, it’s hard to go wrong. Their Special model includes all options and is solid wood with a cartridge upgrade and tonearm cue for $479, your done after this with a good cable and isolation [emoji851]

I’m sitting here listening to the Soft Parade, from The Doors Soft Parade, released by QRP using Analog Tape Masters, and it has a level of refinement, natural, perhaps this is what is called Analog.

Morrison’s statement at the end of the song Soft Parade, “When all else fails...”, sounds to me as it was recorded in the studio and on the digital version it has a slight, very slight “digital” around the voice.

I’m talking a radical separation for critical comparison, and when things are radical, wars start, so back to having and enjoying both!

Ed - is that the Analogue Productions 45 RPM version of The Soft Parade? If not, once you get your analogue dialed in you need to get that Doors 45 RPM box set. It's amazing.

Yes, its the Analogue Productions 45 RPM, picked up LA Woman as well, both sound decent, IMO.

When all else fails, we can whip the horses eyes, and make them sleep, and cry
