Cat Power - What Would The Community Think
Damn, I can’t stop listening to this. I tried some of her more critically acclaimed releases but keep coming back to this lo-fi emotive gem...

Thanks! We spent around 8 hours at the lake each week and the 8 D cell batteries lasted for about 4 months of radio play. Damn thing will get way louder than I thought it would. Usually got a comment of how cool it was every time we were down there.

Really a great piece of prog rock history. Has to be listened to under the right circumstances as is the case with anything in the genre. Certainly not for casual listening. This is the German release artwork. You've of course got the American release buried deep in your vinyl collection.

You're probably focusing on the gear photo's that look high rent and vintage cool. We listen on all sorts of rigs. My stuff is pretty low rent and not at all vintage, but it sounds pretty sweet to me.

Hi Picklerick,
What type of guidance are you looking for? Audio Gear? There is a wide swath of input from all of us here. It really comes down to personal preference and $$$ budget. One bit of advice, just because something is expensive does not mean it is better. Same goes with "Newer is not always better". Please send me a PM and I'd be happy to give some pointers.
Cheers,

I too have non vintage gear, except for the turntable, and i love it. If i find something down the road I may upgrade, but for now what I'm listening through does very well.
Frank, where's the Onkyo?

Lou, the Onkyo TX-8211 got boxed up months ago. I bought it ($20) just because it was sitting there at the thrift shop virtually mint and unused and in need of a good home. It's my "emergency blanket" at this point. Come the dead of winter when I have nothing else going on I might swap it out with the Sherwood...but the Sherwood has that built in Bluetooth thing going on.
Love that Onkyo TX-8211 though. Seen here playing Witchfynde's Lords of Sin last winter shortly after I brought it home.

Just googled your gear and it seems pretty good.
Your speakers are better than mine!
This threads about the music but yeah there's plenty of friendly folks with some killer setups here ready to help.
