Yours looks like the same copy, (Fantasy 3245). On my copy Side 1 is labelled as Side 2 on the record and Side 2 is labelled as Side 1.mickeyrat said:1ThoughtKnown said:
I found that one in VG+ condition last year. Had to create the listing for my copy on Discogs. Great record imo.mickeyrat said:
you got that right.The sleeve has the correct listing. I put that in the notes on Discogs. I should probably add misprint in the description.Shows their are four other owners now.
huh. will check later. saw side 1 and didnt check track listing.

Beautiful. Love this record and the recording is out of this world. You do need a good setup because some could consider this recording "hot".Cropduster-80 said:0 -

It’s got to be a gain issue as a 5mv cart at 40db gain it’s going to be hot
ive got a 3mv cart and at 46 it’s borderline hot, at 40 it isn’t but the KAB calculator says my carts ideal gain is 41. My cart is fairly low output for a MM and 40 is the lowest gain setting on my phono preamp so I would have to think most carts would be hot, especially 5mv which seems to be the normal mm output
that’s my theory anyway0 -
Probably right. When I bought it, I had a Ort Blue and it was right at the edge of hot. Now I have a Hana SL MC which is. 5mv and it sounds perfect.Cropduster-80 said:

Non replaceable stylus is probably what’s keeping me from taking the mc plunge.mrussel1 said:

with my luck I’d get it set up and damage the stylus. Plus my tonearm is one piece which I regret now so I’ve really got to be a one cart person0 -

As soon as I started upgrading my records to more AP stuff the thought has crossed my mind. It’s a viscous cycle. This turntable is only about 6 months old and I haven’t thought of a way to explain why I need a new one to my wife yetmickeyrat said:Cropduster-80 said:

The reissue is fine, I still think a little thin, with not as much depth as the OG. Reissue is more clear, not as warm as the OG. I keep going back and forth, which is taking a while, but I prefer the overall sound of the OG, but QC aside, the reissue is good.To me the track that really shows the difference is Given to Fly. The music envelopes you on the OG, the reissue is good, but definitely more clinical sounding. Elderly woman also has the same overly clinical representation on the reissue. One of the better tracks on the reissue is Red Mosquito which delivers more depth but with almost hints of sibilance where the OG is a much smoother ride. The bottom end is also much more prominent on Better Man on the OG, not that the reissue is bad just thinner. You can feel it when Jeff initially comes in and it really adds to the overall presence.Post edited by MedozK on0 -

Muddy Waters - Hard Again
2010 Reissue, Kevin Gray cut0 -
I’m a big fan of my clamp. If you aren’t using a slip mat it’s pretty much mandatory for me. I’m a bit hesitant to use weights though
that turntable with the threaded spindle is awesome. My clamp is just friction based on a normal spindle0 -
Yes, Medoz and I have the same table. I play it without a mat and with the clamp. It's a heavy steel one and it takes care of warps. For example, the LO2L is warped out of the sleeve but with the clamp, it's perfect.Cropduster-80 said:I’m a big fan of my clamp. If you aren’t using a slip mat it’s pretty much mandatory for me.

I usually use the clamp if I have to deal with a slight warp. I need to really listen for a difference when using it. I have heard a lot about how the clamp will actually enhance the sound.mrussel1 said:
I passed on this, but wonder if you had the old one and have an opinion whether the MOFI is significantly better.MedozK said:
Also, you don't use your clamp? I have become a fan of it.
I have the Bellman cut also. This 45RPM is the one to have.0 -
