I like my Vincent but it's obviously the weak link. Thinking a Simaudio 310LP is the future for me because of the archival project I'd like to do. Should be demoing one when the time comes.
I really want a Decware ZP3, but I really want to make this archival project happen, too...And with the Sim stage I can run SE to the Harbeths and Balanced to the Hilo/Recording rig.
It'll also give less colored sound at the source than the Decware and a totally SS recording chain for a lower noise floor.
Just makes sense. Plus it means I can monitor with my Harbeths which will be oh so sweet.

I'm not down with that, then. I refuse to listen to anything that is overtly fascist or racist....just where I draw a line.
Now good old fashion Satanism doesn't scare me....it's all mythology in my book.

Guys check this out. Dutch artist called Mories, from Gnaw Their Tongues-fame, made a wonderfully fuzzed out, blissed out, shimmering and sparkling album full of My Bloody Valentine worship. Makes me think there is hope for The Netherlands after all.
EDIT: Hmm I can't embed a Bandcamp player. Just click the link above and grab your teddybear.
That was quite good and not what I was expecting, my mouse will probably hang over the buy button for a while. Is the rest of the album that good? Only one song streaming.

Unfortunately it wasn't as good as it could be...New (worse) cartridge than before and still no upgraded phono stage.
Wait til next year and it'll be really good.
EDIT: Also, what do you guys think about me starting an Audiophile dork LP archival project? Metal is one of the genres I think would benefit significantly from this project.
I'd be recording 24/96 WAV (and converting to AIFF for proper tagging).
How many spare HDDs do you have? (24bits * 96k samples * 2 channels * 60 second * 45 (lets just use 45 for a arbitrary record length) minutes) / (8,000,000,000 bits /gigabyte) which is about 1.6 gigs per album. If you can do it, I'd say for it.
Part of the plan a 4tb (or so) RAID array. The new iMac (also in the plan) will have a 1tb to start me off. It'll take awhile to fill up even at 2gb an album.

I'm shooting a promo video for Hate Meditation in the first week of April. It's a new project by Blake Judd (Nachtmystium, Twilight, Krieg) and Wrest (Leviathan, Twilight, Lurker of Chalice) among others. It's pretty great stuff, definitely check it out if you're a Nachtmystium fan.
EDIT: I wrote first week of March instead of April. I am not a time traveller. Yet.

Great been waiting to hear this, I really dig Nachtmystium.
New album by Kvelertak is streaming too if anyone's interested, it's real good "fun" hardcore with some black metal in there. I'm listening to it at the moment and enjoying it, definitely going to get it but not sure yet if it is better than their first album which I loved and still listen to it a lot.
