Thanks. I've consulted various tutorials on-line and am pretty sure I've followed instructions to the letter. Using Brian Davies's Equalizer app I notice that when applying, for example, the RIAA to HMV/Blumlein setting the bass is reduced by around 5db at 100Hz but increased by as much as 20db at 20kHz. Hence I find the result thin and shrill. Especially as most 78s don't contain info much above 7 or 8 kHz, I think.

There's clearly something I'm not doing right but I'll keep at it.

Oh, and I doubt it's an age thing where I'm concerned. I'm much closer to the Senior Citizen end of the scale than my preference for bassier sounds might suggest!
