Jack...did you get your new deck yet?

I pick it up on Sat. The dealer is about an hour from my house on the northern side of Philadelphia so I avoid going up that way during the week. Too much traffic. Just unhooked my MMF 2.1 and got it ready to go. Can't decide what to listen to first when I get it home. I'm putting together an LP shopping list to order online, Mood Swing is first. Just ordered a CD from a guy you probably have heard of, Dave Holland. He's forned an Octet and released a CD called "Pathways" that sounded very interesting.

Holland is a very gifted bass player....many times using the double bass. I listened to a very good album yesterday that at first I thought I would not like but I loved the CD. I thought I would not like it because there was no drummer. It was Kenny Wheelers album "What Now". Wheeler on Flugel Horn, Chris Potter on Tenor sax, John Taylor on piano, and Holland on double bass. Holland does a very good job in time keeping on the bass. IF you run across the album by Kenny Wheeler pick it up and check out Holland on bass keeping the time....and Wheeler plays a good horn as well. Wheeler also has a of classical and free jazz stuff as well.

What Table are you getting?

I'm jumping up a notch to the MMF 5.1 with the Goldring 1012GX cartridge. This guy also carries VPI and Acoustic Signature so I'm sure to get a glimpse of some nice tables.

That cart and table combo kicks. I've heard it a couple of times. The 1012 is a great cart, you are in for a real treat.

Thanks for the engouraging words. I'm in uncharted territory when it comes cartridges. I counting on you guys for a little guidance. By the way Poppa I got a couple of the record clamps done. Nothing fancy for the first time. I'll work on a design. The boss finally took a couple days off and it gave me time to play. They are out at the platers getting black anodized. They should be back this week. I can send you one if you'd like?

I would say its more than a notch..Congrats Jack....I will be moving up in about 6-12 months to the Pro Ject 1 Xpression III...the one in the picture. Am still enjoying the MMF2.1
