I'm sitting here listening to the LP, "Still Crazy After All These Years" which I bought when it came out. So yes I have lots of old 70's-early 80's LP's which haven't been played much as I transferred everything to tape then. Trouble is my tastes have changed and while I have all the Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Poco, Dylan, Doobies, RS, J.Brown, Joplin, Clapton, CSN&Y, JT, EJ, Allmans, L&M etc, etc.one could want, I have no jazz other than maybe some Steely Dan. So I'll be spending time at the used record shops. We've got a good store here in Columbia named "Poppa Jazz".

I declare the JD9 is getting better and better. It's got all the gain anyone could ever want and will drive the toughest MC. It's amazingly quiet, accurate and not warm sounding with it's stock Chinese tubes but I'm in no hurry to try the Telefunkens. I haven't opened it up yet as I can't stop listening to it long enough. I'm using it's low level outputs with a Shure M97xE cart on a SL-1300 TT. Using the high level outputs takes the volume through the roof.

I don't have any speakers in the oven at the moment so it's great fun playing with this new toy.
