Re: Who wants to start an opera LP collection? Only $42K
Interesting. I was thinking about sending message asking whether the collection includes original British pressings of the operas, like the EMI SAX Columbia blue-silvers and Decca ED1 wide band groove albums of the early SXL2000 series. If those are part of the collection, the asking price is not crazy. However, if these are Angel and London pressings, then they would go to goodwill.

It all depends on the quality of the vinyl of course. But how many are going to buy instantly 21k lp's ? Washing and drying takes me a few years

I upgraded the power supply on my Gigafoil v4 to a Weiss PSU 102. It’s very nice step up. But with the new model, you’re looking at $2000 before even investing in a SOTA linear power supply.
