Moved the turntables and now LP's out of the UHA / MBL Reference system.
Off they go to another UHA audio system with MBL 9007 monoblocks and the MBL 116F speakers, plus will have lots of turntables there now....

With so many tapes to store some of these LP's gotta go into storage.
Just got tired of pops and ticks, surface noise, inner groove issues, tangent errors, finicky set up, ect.....

Antique cabinets are great for storage all full of LP's, but now off they go to storage, or maybe ebay so I can buy more tapes, HA!

Tapes in every corner some still in their shipping boxes need space for them.

Making progress, man analog should be sold by the pound, it's all heavy, LPs and tapes weigh a ton...

My initial simple question turned out in a grammar thing that's why I wrote kiss as in: keep it simple stupid;)

Finding orchestral work is gonna be quite hard I think , those small tape producing companies can maybe bring out simpler music at a lower cost , but getting an orchestra to perform is gonna be a lot more expensive.

KISS is a great band too , id love to do my own recordings by the way , I think that's the missing link in my audiochallenge , the LS thing is more or less a done deal.
Simple things like an acoustic guitar , piano , vocals , just get a stereomike pair and experiment
