Sweepstakes

Back in July, Analog Planet held our biggest sweepstakes yet. We randomly selected twenty-five individual winners and sent each a carefully packed LP of Rumer’s Boys Don’t Cry. When Mikey reviewed this album, he was, "enthralled from beginning to end.” Did our winners feel the same?

Robert M. of Massapequa Park, New York digs it.

Chris W. of Kansas says Go Bruins.

This is Paul B. next to his Dahlquist DQ-10, which he’s owned since 1975, along with his Linn LP12, constantly upgraded, and a highly modified VPI HW-19. Paul hasn’t won anything since a Rocky and Bullwinkle Colorform set at the Saturday movies in the 1960s.

John C. likes the music.

Mike K. of Lubbock, TX says, “It sounds fantastic!”

The perfect pair! Greg E. and Sara Joyce (also known as Rumer).

Jason G. didn’t provide a picture. After officially cleaning and listening to the record, he was “repulsed by this record on every level.”

Who’s that? It’s Findog.

Jim Tavegia has been a loyal reader on Analog Planet since its inception, and you can also see him perusing the Stereophile message boards as well. Upon receiving his LP, he planned on listening through his headphone system: Yamaha CX-2 preamp, Yamaha P550/Shure M97 combo, and AKG 701s. He is a high school math teacher.

John C. files his Rumer record between Run D.M.C. and Roxy Music.

Marty T. is pumped!

Terry B. says, “Excellent record! Thank You!”

Tony G. is proud of his prize.

William S. gets a warm sound.

Peter R. was not able to send the image because he sent the LP to his brother. He didn’t like it.

Eric S. already won another sweeps. He doesn’t get a second picture.

Stephen D. says, “The album is nice and relaxing. The vinyl is very quiet.”

Robert H. listens after he washes dishes.

Leonardo stays classy.

Congratulations to all who participated!
