Good luck with this forum/site!

I will try to be a useful member. I know a bit about LP12s, NAIM (Olive) and Prog Rock!

2nd only to Rush in my book. Got most of the PT stuff on vinyl. Tonefloat are a bunch of clowns though. I`ve had to return and complain twice about what`s being passed for high quality pressings.

LP12 was always an object of desire for me, but then I went a different route instead and have been very happy with the current setup I have.

Whats the current story on the keel - is it really worth it?

Its a huge improvement but I would get a RadiKal first, that really was a huge improvement.

This might be of interest but I suspect I'll have to go 'trade' after you have had a look:-

I have had no problems with tonefloat. 'The Incident' is superb!!!!!

Saw Rush on the Snakes and Arrows tour in Glasgow, stunning.

I have every Rush album on vinyl right up to 'Counterparts', and that cost me a fortune!!!

Tom Sawyer was made to be played on my system....................wow!

Hi Andrew,

"I have every Rush album on vinyl right up to 'Counterparts', and that cost me a fortune!!!"

`Tis a hard one to find alright. Got my original German copy, a Brazilian copy ... and a Russian copy. 8 copies of Hemispheres at the last count plus multiple copies of each album. I worked hard replacing all of my old lp`s with sealed originals (to play/not to covet!). 1st edition of Fly by Night has yet to be opened though. Got two copies of Vapor Trails and the list goes on and on. Seen the lads 11 times so far (1st time on the `Roll the Bones`tour - had a ticket for `Hold your Fire`in Birminham but the folks wouldn`t let me go as I was only 15 at the time, I`ve never forgiven them for that one:-). Send me a PM if you wanna meet up for some prog. I`m in the Rathfarnham area. Cheers. Dave.
