Please allow me to share my thoughts regarding the issue of the lake harvester which city council recently decided not to sell, despite extremely limited use since purchasing it several years ago. Based on the figures described in Tribune article of April 10, the cost of removing aquatic vegetation from the lake by the machine so far is in excess of $1,000 per pound of harvested material (50kg , after a reported outlay of $123,000).

Review EquipmentThe Accent is installed atop AVID’s excellent Platform, providing optimum isolation from external vibrations, and fed by my two primary sources. A classic Garrard 401 turntable with SME3009 combo equipped with the brilliant Hana ML (Micro-Line) low-output MC cartridge supplies the analogue front end into the amp’s Pellar phono stage.

£233/$279/€280, sennheiser.comFew dynamic microphones can boast the longevity of the classic Sennheiser MD 421. Launched in 1960, it predates the ubiquitous Shure SM57 by five years. Like the ‘57, the MD 421 has long been favoured as a trusted workhorse for guitar cabs, bass, brass instruments and drums, especially toms. During its first decade of production, it could be seen used as a live vocal mic for everyone from The Beatles onwards. It remains a fantastic tool both on stage and in the studio.

The clue’s often in the numbers — an ‘87’ here, a ‘73’ there — not to mention the virtual emulations of historic recording facilities, vintage hardware and iconic acoustic spaces.
