Great Topic & Great Pics All 8)

@ Sssatan, Is that Juliette letting it all hang out on the 3rd floor of Boboli Mansions by the Black Lake :?: No offence intended :D This architechtural thought just unexpectedly crossed my mind. Nice landscape, though :lol:

Jeezez..you were'nt kidding about that camera...I believe you may have bumped Blue Angel from the position of resident photo mangler..
Blue is getting much better as witnessed by this photo he took of one of his Mantis cartridges

Ok -- it’s my turn ….

Here is my main source and Ortofon MC30 Super Mark II a little old but its a low mileage unit, and still sounds Oh so sweet. \:D/

Image

And on my other Deck, an Orpheus with an Audiophile products Uni-pivot arm sits an Audio Technica AT95E. It’s typical budget fair I know; - but give it a good arm and the little AT doesn’t know it isn’t supposed to sound as good as it does. :D

I never noticed that before Blue, nicely spotted. Ironic isn't it that the disc in action is Dire Straits 'Making Movies' and the track probably is 'Romeo and Juliette', so may be she is just hanging out. That makes Romeo wanting his wicked way on the other side of Boboli Mansions. Ah ah games up.

I thought it looked rather architectural as well, with a tad serenity thrown in.

I lapped up all you wrote about that Boboli, Satan. It sure sounds a very nice cart and that Ferrari red is most becoming. Maranello here I come :D The Italians (and the French) always do things differently.
