Look identical to what I had back in college days. Don't have any idea what the model numbers were, but it was a 40 wpc integrated and the matching tuner. A Dual 1218 with a Microseiki cartridge and a pair of Epicure Model 10's rounded out the system, and provided many, many hours of enjoyment.

It's what brought me to these pieces also, back in the late 70's I purchased a Kenwood KA-7100 and tuner, not sure of the tuner's model # anymore. When deciding to put together a bedroom system a couple of yrs ago I decided to replace the old Kenny, but needed the pre outs so went with the KA-7300 and matching tuner. It's recently moved into the living rm to simplify things in both rooms for the little lady, and the main system sits in pieces waiting for me to complete the mancave.

Will soon post pics of my equipment in my gallery.

The little lady wanted to buy me an album so asked me to take her to Barnes & Noble, who was I to deny her lol. As it turned out Renee picked the album, that was ok with me, she has a similar taste in music. I have several of their albums but oddly enough never this one, could it be because of all the radio air play?

Can't compare the sonics of this 180g version to an original never having owned one, but I can say this copy is superb.

Martin

Edit: Fantastic pressing, not a single artifact, absolutely quiet just letting the music come through.

Eric Bibb is one of my favorites, but I have never seen that LP. His, posted on September 18, 2016 at 14:41:21

Hello Travis-

Thanks for reminding me that I had to include my new system at AA.

I just updated my system description and picture gallery to include the gear in my man cave.

Enjoy!

( performance wise, it'll be either love or hate it due to its HIP rendition ) This isn't my favourite performance but they captured a lovely voice of Joanne Lunn.

I don't have any of his CDs so I can't give you a direct comparison to vinyl, but I can say this three album set is great. How much of that is the venue I don't know, and I don't care, the acoustics of the hall are like an instrument all in of itself.

The soundstage is huge, extending in height not just to the ceiling, but along the ceiling extending behind my head. Width out past the walls spreading from the front to all the way behind revealing the actual shape of the venue, it's amazing actually.

Hope this helps.
