The Ramones wanted their first album to be in mono, but the label said no. So they made the stereo panning like an early 60's record. Maybe that's what the poater is trying to say?

The 45 versions of “Blitzkrieg Bop” and “Sheena Is a Punk Rocker” kinda sorta fit that description. Saying that somehow applies to their whole massive catalog is idiotic.

Unfuckingbelievable. The alleged billionaire asswipe asking for a DAT recorder? Go buy one like everyone else, you fucking cunt. Oh, and a quick word to the wise. Anyone clueless enough to actually send something/anything* to Hooofman, kiss it g'bye first. You'll never see it again.

Your post reminded me of the time STeVE poated a pic of a reel-to-reel deck he was "borrowing" that got pinched. "You know who you are, dude, give it back..". I searched but couldn't find Hoofy's OP, I think he deleted it.

Surely he could sell some Nazi stamps to get the money to buy one.

Why hasn’t he got one already? We’re not talking an insanely expensive bit of kit here. Supposedly this guy was a pro but it seems his house is filled with freebie Blu-rays, old pencils, station masters watches, medium format cameras, domestic hi-fi gear (on permanent loan), guitars that have never been played, loads of leaky fountain pens, hard drives crammed with 40s & 50s cheesecake photos (and a couple of dvd burns of ‘Ream His Midget Ass’ vols 1& 2), Al Jolson LPs, Phil Spector’s cock ring, John Oteri’s mummified head, ‘Rosebud’ (Welles gave it to Steve after they’d had lunch), Juice Newton’s discarded merkin, pencils, the very rare recalled Jimmy Hoffa Pez dispensers (full set, minty), Walt Disney’s favourite toast rack, pencils, a Junkers JU 88 (cherry, still with original paint job), a moat filled with string cheese, pencils, pencils, more fucking pencils…

True hmm... dat.
It's $200-300 on eBay. and if he happens to have any connection with hifi stores around Los Angeles, he would get dozens of trusted addresses that can sell him a correctly working machine.

Why buy one when he can get a SHite to send him one gratis? Once a grifter, always a grifter. Yeah, I know, but it isn't exactly flattering to his image. The Great Steve Hoffman who doesn't even have access to a rather common piece of consumer equipment that was part of his daily weekly monthly work tools 15 years ago. That's an admission that he doesn't have anybody on speed dial to get equipment outside of the marketing team from Audio Note UK. There was one time, long ago, where he asked for a copy of some LP from forum members, as he needed to check it for comparison to his remaster. The guy who lent him the copy later complained that he had to ask him repeatedly for return, and that it was not exactly sent back in minty condition. But here, we are more in "Hey, Kevin Gray just dumped my bony ass. Wouldn't you have heard about a mastering studio in L.A.? I can't find any" territories of isolation.

No kidding, it’s not flattering. But, STeVE has no shame. No shame whatsoever. If he did, how could he bring himself to panhandle the SHites every year after boasting that he was “one of them there millionaires, bucko”..? He brags about getting free shit sent to him all the time, so why not try to see if he can con a DAT machine out of someone as well? (Leeching off the SHites is Hoffman’s modus operandi. It’s so ingrained at this point, STeVE could no more stop trying to sponge off others than he could ever admit that a mastering fuck-up was his.) Right now, it’s just waiting for the other shoe to drop. You know someone is going to bestow a DAT deck on Daddy. The only question is who it will be. (Las Vegas bookmakers have Luke Joseph Chung down as the favorite.)
