Here's a tune live at Shitamoto, Hiroshima City;
Now, this one is from "Life" recorded in New York City;
Here's my studio in NYC, viewing from a couch at the foyer side. See the loft bed, about 6 Tatamis area. There's a bed behind a pair of speakers and a bookshelf. The speakers are Tannoy Little Gold Monitors (12 inch). See the old Mac 7300. I used to like the sound of the 15 monitor, but it's gonna be a junk soon. The new one is G4 on the bottom right.
The view from the loft bed side. The pair of speakers are AR 4 inch satellites for surrounding. They are right over the couch about 2 meters high and sounds just like hearing a great pair of headset.
My working table and the rack, including a pair of Hafler M5 speakers, dbx 386 Tube Pre, Sony CD-RW 33 recorder, Art DI/O and Adcom Pre. The big turntable is a special. It's a Garrard 301 from 1950's Gray Color, and a SME 309 arm with Grado cartridge..
.
Here are the real things. Top right Dynaco SP-70 Mark II, Audio Note DAC-1( middle) and Adcom power amp(Bottom). There's another my favorite amp NAD 3240PE. It's been working good over 18 years now.
OK, this is the turntable and the arm. See no scratches, no nothing, working perfectly over a half century.
