Rega P25 plays 'Take 5' from Jazz at the Pawnshop

[@naturalverities]

Kudos to the PERFORMERS! Too often overlooked. Every note, every beat is a miracle... when you think about it. Thanks for posting this.

[@crazyprayingmantis5596]

This is up there with the best sounding recordings I've heard on KZbin. Fantastic! it's pretty amazing how good a compressed KZbin clip can sound really

[@mikechivy]

Its pretty amazing how it takes a $6K stylus to replicate digital sound. Sad is the actual word I'm looking for

[@iamreallyright]

For years, its been one of my fav albums. Super scoustic engineering.

[@mikebarker9187]

Sounds great after uploading to KZbin, compressed, downloaded to my iPhone, and played on its speakers! Phenomenal!

[@andrereed2898]

Amazing. Still tryna wrap my head around this ! Nice

[@BSD2000]

This was from an original Audiosource pressing (1/2 speed mastered and cut at JVC), released in 1976.

[@BSD2000]

@zepfred77 Thanks for the comment! I mainly use headphones when listening to vinyl because my main music/HT rig is located in another room in my house. My turntable rig is setup on my enclosed back porch, which also doubles as a small recording studio. On the other side of the porch/studio, I have a PC, which I use to record the audio and import the video footage. I use a Focusrite Liquid 56 recording interface with Mackie MR5 monitors for audio playback and video editing.

Great soundstage using a FiiO amp conected to my pc and AKG folding cans. Nice.

[@BSD2000]

Thanks! I use three headphone amps; Burson Audio HA-160 solid state, Musical Fidelity X-Can v3 with Amperex 'Bugle Boy' 6922 NOS tubes and a modified Bravo Audio tube headphone amp (using a single EH6922 tube). For most listening, I use the Burson HA-160. KZbin's limit of 500 characters is very constraining. If you would like to discuss audio gear, tube recommendations or vinyl records, feel free to stop by my VinylAudio forum where I can post longer responses to your questions. :)

Jazz at the Pawnshop is fabulous

[@CofeeAuLait]

Holy smokes, the sound is so rich.

[@lizgibbs4570]

Drooling over the equipment - yumptious sound (and I do so love this track ... from my childhood with a jazz pianist for a father, until today - this is the ultimate in uber chill & frosty) - Thanks for posting - Cheers (& claps & wild applause) from lizzy lou (AKA Liz G)

[@AnalogueInTheUK]

great videos. we need more! keep them coming please.

[@PETROULOP]

This is soo cool!.. I see you finally ended up keeping the Rega TT. Cant help my self not admiring your courage on spending enough for the Zyx Omega It sounds stellar though even through youtube!!!

[@SendItVibes]

Do you have any idea what you have here? If you are tuning in any SQ Comp class and you are NOT using this exact track, you just lost. This is the most iconic audiophile track in history, and this recording is damn near flawless. From the bottom of my drivers and the back of the cabinets, thank you.

[@BSD2000]

@EoLoVoX Thanks! I've been looking all over for a copy and I finally found one on Ebay for $31, still sealed, so I couldn't resist. It definitely lives up to the hype with excellent sound quality and top notch performances. :)

[@allerbedste1]

Fantastic! I love your channel.

[@GVernon]

Absolutely amazing!!!

[@BSD2000]

Thanks! I'm very partial to Zyx cartridges and in my opinion, the Zyx R100 is a much better match for a Rega turntable than the Dynavector DV-20x. I've compared the two on my Rega P25 and the Zyx comes out ahead by a wide margin. The Zyx is uncolored, transparent, detailed and refined. The bass is deeper with better control, the mids are clearer with no muddiness and the highs are clean and pure. Also, the imaging is amazing (very 3D sounding) on the Zyx. I highly recommend it. :)

[@misc2261]

Oh my..damm cool

[@petercseszarik6552]

jesus christ! I was just going to say the exact same thing! how cool is that!

[@Kugan7475]

With my Audioquest Dragonfly DAC, this sounds amazing. Tq

[@Kikinahm]

Oh yeah that looks like a cool corner!!

[@BSD2000]

Thanks! I use a Purest Audio STB-9000 brass clamp. I purchased it on eBay from the seller 'save-vinyl' for $57.

[@BSD2000]

@lagerdean1978 Thanks. In the near future, I plan on uploading a video that showcases and demonstrates my Revox A77 reel to reel, but for this video, it's just for show. :)

[@zepfred77]

I think it's time for a new upload. Don't keep us waiting to long. By the way great videos!

[@hugeshows]

Lots of clarity, good soundstage. Something's a tad fatiguing in the 6-10k range though...

[@MarioCavolo]

forgive me, I"m Catching up with you 6 years later...this sounds better / clearer than ANYTHING ELSE, far more so than I've ever heard. I'm a jazz pianist, wow....we're talking super expensive cartridge here? is that why? .... .thanks, Mario

[@EoLoVoX]

You've got the Pawnshop recording on vinyl! I should have expected that, but it would have been no less impressive if I did. It sounds great. I bet it sounded a heck of a lot better in your music room, though. Excellent editing, by the way. really enjoyed all the close looks at your amazing system while the music played.

[@bradt.3555]

This is about 10 years late but I have on LP also and mines is dead flat.

[@TomCorbett420]

very nice!

[@harry6206]

Analog sound is fresher, natural and espansivo in the frequency range

[@BSD2000]

Thanks. My original turntable is a Rega P25. I bought a VPI Scoutmaster in March of 2011, but I ended up selling it because it wasn't a good match with my Zyx R100H cartridge. The VPI arm preferred a heavier cartridge (8g or more); my Zyx R100H is only 4.2g. The sound was dull and lifeless with a light cartridge. The Dynavector DV-20x was a better match (9.1g), but I ended up selling the Scoutmaster and using the money to buy the Zyx Omega-G.

[@TheReal1953]

Isn't this played in the movie "Constantine"? Sort of elevates the movie for a few minutes......

[@sanaeluangpakdee295]

เพลงเพราะมากนิ

[@Frutoses]

Wow so many things going on that I didn't hear on the cd!

[@bernardmahoney6684]

that is exellent.

[@BSD2000]

I working on three new videos. :) Thanks!

[@joary639]

this sound even great on spotify

[@Белогоръ]

😋объедение!

[@runoutvinyl5166]

what's your workflow for ripping? i'd love to try this?

[@fabioalexcastelli]

Fantastic amazing sound and equipments. Is it ZYX omega 0.24mv or 0.48mv? How it matches with phono ARC PH5? The PH5 is 57,5dB as I know. I’m asking due to I’m interested in PH8.

[@BSD2000]

It's the low output 0.24mv version.

[@zepfred77]

great video! and sound quality. do you use any loud speakers to listen your music or do you just use your headsets?

[@kewlnorcaldude]

What rig are you using for the cans? I'm trying to figure what headphone amp / preamp combo you have, and possibly recommend when listening to great vinyl? Prefer tube amplification, and any bottles that you would recommend in tweaking them if necessary? Thanks, Brian BTW: Awesome setup, and breathtaking sound!

[@rcarloz]

Nice video and amazing cartridge! I have a P5 and after watching your videos I am thinking about getting the zyx r100 or the dv 20x. What is your opinion on the two?

[@realbogus]

Great recording... but lost on the iPhone generation...

[@sergeybelov1682]

Ох-еть, вот это звук!

[@87starion]

Hi, very very cool. What clamp are you using? I also have a P25 and would love a clamp. Cheers

[@bernardmahoney6684]

my grados like the sound but then they make cartridges as well for turntables .not a hint of harshness in the sound at all .

[@Threemicsrecords]

OK, on this one apogee is doing great job :D. Cymbals sounds sweet... Snare is nicely "breathing"... only kick drum sounds bit flat...

[@pu1ypj]

Do u have it on Lossless Flac?

[@CofeeAuLait]

100% agreed. XRCD are good examples of this.

[@EoLoVoX]

@BSD2000 - $31 is a great deal for that recording. I gotta be more diligent!

[@BSD2000]

@allerbedste1 Thanks! :)

[@Mackatify]

Was this a reissue?

[@danehenas]

Your record is warped!

[@nxxxxzn]

hmm. sounds very nice. that's a $5,000 cartridge.

[@EoLoVoX]

@BSD2000 - $31 is a great deal for that recording. I gotta be more diligent!
