^ this is how you keep your tubes. 
 
Not this v

UT you just made my day - no at least my week. I have pictured your tubes carefully segregated in their own respective temperature and humidity controled compartments specially coded to a master spreadsheet. Your drawer looks like mine !!!!

Man, I thought you were all about keeping it tidy.

That was my altered ego. This is the real me.
 

 

 
I've got a fetish for keeping things properly laid out. See this photo shoot?

One of the first boxed sets of 45s I ever owned was a Harry Belafonte album and one of the first LPs I ever owned was also a Belafonte album. His calypso music helped instill in me a lifelong love of beautiful music. Listening to a video like this reminds me of how quickly that life has flown past. It also reminds me of how blessed I have been to have been introduced to music such as Belafonte's at an early age which has not only almost daily stirred my passion for music, but has also stirred so many other passions that have given me a life full of beauty, color and meaning.
 
One reason I like this thread so much is that it is packed with so much passion.

@pctazhp it reminds you to return to vinyl. 

 
Do you still have any 45s or 33s to send down under?

Oh I wish!!! Having now seen how well you take care of your tubes, my RCA Shaded Dogs and Mercury Living Precense's would have found a suitable home with you ))))

It's the thought that counts P. So you'll get a song. Sorry @supersonic395 this isn't Led Zep but it's better.

You have no idea of how many memories this brings back!!! I won't go into details 

 
By the way, I just experienced an epiphany. I've figured out another way to describe the difference I hear between the T1 and HD800S. The T1 sounds much more vinyl and the S much more digital.
 
Edit:  Well, maybe I shouldn't say "much" ))

I think I still have a couple of Lincoln Mayorga direct cut Sculli lathes disks.  Was going to take them to resale place but maybe these two I should keep. 
“Lincoln Mayorga and Distinguished Colleagues," recorded direct-to-disc for the Sheffield Lab label in 1968, was inducted into the Library of Congress’ National Recording Registry this summer. http://www.loc.gov/today/pr/2015/15-041.html

The direct cut disks were and are amazing, first time I heard them could not believe it. Jelly Roll Blues, and the rest just jumped off the disk!
 
This is a link to one of the albums even on utube it sounds good 
 
and the other one....  this is off their demo cd

Always love the music recommend on this thread

I'll post a group photo when I get back some of the headphones that my son as borrowed, if you want to see the last group shot, it in the photos in my profile taken back in early 2015 I think, a few have been given away (HD-598, SHP-9500, Momentum on-ear, HE-560, and Vmoda XS) and a few added (HD-600, SR-009, T1, second HE-560) since then.
