Nice Hendrix & Beatles vinyl! I'm not the biggest Hendrix fan, but I do have 7 of the ones you show. I have all of the Canadian Beatles pressings, the odd mono UK and also the UK Blue Box.

Great system and room, Garth.

I have found that, if you have the space, large electrostatics with adequate subs (the Descent i is one of them) represent fantastic quality and great value for money.
Nice to find you use Cardas Clear cables - what type do you use on the CLX? Can I also ask how you connect the Descent i's to the main system?

Hi Garth

Do you use your Clearaudio Outer Limit ring clamp for every record. Is it a hassle or just something you have gotten so used to you don't think about it.

I just bought a used one with the centering tool, but haven't got it yet for a great price. It seems like have the records I buy these days have some sort of warp.

At a local record dealer a English guy is turning in his near mint Collection he brought with him from England. This is the second lot I have bought some days you get lucky. View attachment 17248

Some nice titles there Garth! Congrats. However, these aren't all UK pressings though. The Kate Bush - The Kick Inside is a US/CAN cover. There were 7 different covers. And I believe the STYX is an A&M Audiophile release, which were only made available in Canada, but pressed by JVC in Japan.

I think you will glad you did is it a Clearaudio table you have. As to rings I have yet to see a negative post about one by anyone who has one.

I have a TW Acustic Raven AC, so the centering spider is definitely a must.

You are right Jonny the Styx was pressed in Japan. And yes some of it is North American I am buying most of this collection to fill in the holes on my own stuff or because of the Britch and German pressings. All are mint or near mint not something I see often getting the first Wish Bone Ash record was a bonus

In all of my 45yrs of buying vinyl I have never come across something I wanted to bulk buy. I've looked at several collections during that time, but I haven't pulled the trigger on any of it due to the condition. But it's fine as I have enough anyway.

Happy listening!
